If you have an idea for a story that you want to write or let others write, log it here. Include what info you have: "title, idea," and "details" such as characters, plot, and technology. Note the "place" in the GenE timeline, whether the story is at the "beginning" (prelaunch, launch, near Earth), in the "middle" (voids of space), or "end" (nearing planet, colonizing planet, post-colinization). This is key for ultimately constructing some sort of chronological anthology. Under "Written by" provide who is actually writing the story idea. Under "Proposed By" provide who proposed the idea and on what date. Under "Draft" let us know if the writer has completed a draft and on what date.

What about a story concerning the people who go whacky, who just can't cut long duration space travel? Maybe they get transfered to a spot in the asteroid where they get "care." (brainwashing)
