Yes! All I know so far is that I've decided it's going to be a SciFi/Fantasy. A couple of people have signed up to write, but we definitely will need more authors lined up soon. The biggest hurdle is my own - I need to get ChapterBytes moved over to it's new URL and go self hosted. That way we can separate each book into it's own section. I bought the domain, but need to work on the moving.
Who has thoughts on what the the subject matter should be and on how to get new authors involved?

SciFi/Fantasy is such a great idea because the possibilities are endless! I'm so excited!
As for subject matter, the first chapter writer will need to be creative. If they need a hand, that's what this forum is for!
Author recruitment: I'm sure all the current authors have been pimping Chapterbytes. I sure do! Another idea is to find book review blogs and mention this site in a comment. Plenty of avid readers also enjoy writing.
I'm excited about the possibilities of a Sci/Fi/Fantasy storyline too. It's probably my favorite genre to read, but I've never written it myself. I'm going to try to approach a really great writer to kick it off. Wish me luck!
