Weekly Question: Extending Roleplay Outside of the Game

[catpella]

Inspired by: Over on Tumblr, some people are setting up in-character Twitters! It's a fun-looking project, so I thought I'd link it here.

Question: If you roleplay, where do you prefer to do it, and why? Do you prefer to interact with others inside the game? Do you make use of other places (like Twitter, Tumblr, or a DW-like blogging service) to extend your in-character time? What services do you prefer, and why?

I pretty much only rp in game. I have some people I could aim-rp with, but I'm kinda nervous about it. (Does not help that all my favorite characters to play are jerkfaces.)

I get equally nervous about in game and chat RP; it's the realtime that bugs me. And yeah, characters who are non-sociable can be hard.

not nonsociable! Just very very darkside. I have one lightsider and I pretty much don't rp with him because he bores me. All my other characters are like 'hello, let's be friends, tell me all your secrets so I can blackmail you if you ever get in my way, that's totally what friends are for, yup.'
