Authors, Writers, Publishers, and Book Readers
Talk about intensity, competitiveness, and fun, that was just the beginning of the day for me as I gave each team the three words that were going to spark eight authors into action. They jammed off of each other’s work like jazz musicians or rockers going to it trying to outdo each other. It was fun sending the next piece to all involved; I enjoyed the comments I was receiving from the other participants as they were reading through not just their own piece but the next one that was played off of theirs. How far did they go, where can did they take this in 1,000 to 1,500 words. It is definitely worth the $.99 to find out.
Seriously , contemplate the same three words; Bartender, Library, and Dumpster and read each story, shake your head as you try to figure out where one author’s work starts and ends. It is fun; the quality of the work is amazing, and the amount of time I gave each was 1.5 hours to read what was done before them, write their piece and get back to me to pass it on. Pressure? Sure, but the eight of them handled it like it was a stroll in the park on a nice day. It was an honor, a privilege, and a blast to have been a part of the project.
If you have an ereader, laptop, computer, smartphone…. the $1.98 for the two stories is worth the time and the money. Below I have the authors’ names, their respective works they have penned, and a brief synopsis of the stories. Have some fun with this if you download them; we did.
