Would anyone be interested in working on a group story again? I have to go back to work soon, and would love to do one before then, or at least have one started.

Sharon can't participate for now, but said she'd cheer for us. :)

Wish I could write. But I CAN read and having been sorely missing the stories. If you all write I'll all read. Would love to see the stories going again.
the faster I go, the behinder I get

I miss them too but I am a reader not a writer.

I have this theory that chocolate slows down the aging process.... It may not be true, but do I dare take the chance?

I'm opting to be a reader this time.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Well, I tried... Sharon's busy, and since it's been 8 months, I thought some others might be wanting to write. Guess I was wrong.

Melissa thank you for trying. I know how hard you tried to get this put back together. I am really sorry there will not be anymore stories for now.

Melissa, I have never been a contributor, just a reader. But to get this happening, can I give it a try? I'll bet you could get Zany, and Lee Anne. How many people do you need?

We can do it any number greater than 1. LOL It might not move as fast with just a few people writing, but it still will work.

Nap, you need to go back and read all those stories we wrote last year, that would help.

I don't think I've ever been a reader before.
Have fun!

The more people writing, the harder it is to keep a single plot straight and on track...as Sharon is sure to tell you!

The last one was fun, but with so many writers, it took off in so many directions that it never really made me feel satisfied ith the final reading.

I do miss the fun of writing though! Maybe you could reinstate some of the challanges like the ones with the pictures. It was fun to write about what ever the image inspired and then to see what others were inspired to create from that same image.

The images were fun, but Melissa's trying to get a group story together again.

And actually Zany, the last story had only 4 writers, I think. We might have started with more, I'd have to check, but that's the fun of group writing and the challenge of it, to try to take what you're given and go on with it. You have to really be able to work within a group, though.

Yep, you are right about keeping it all on track.
Fun though.

Maybe later when I have more time, I'll be able to join in.
Sure would be fun to read, though.

If we have a group together, I'll start a story, then the next person adds to the story and so on.

Are there rules? Like, how many words/paragraphs we should write?

What about JuneBug?

Where are you, Lee Anne?

I'm here...thinking...let me sleep on it. I have a hard time writing "on demand" so to speak...hate to let you all down half way through...
