Borislava, do you need to have games that those attending the live chat can play in the chatroom? I think I'd ask the person that organized the chat for ideas and what's been done before that worked well.

Hi to everyone!

I can share the answers I have received from the bloggers, with whom I made interviews to promote my book. In the most interesting one is described the next case: the readers should complete a very short story with three-five sentences. This "game" gathered a bunch of participants. Obviously they enjoyed it very much. Here is the start of the blogger's "game":

"It's a dark and stormy night...you're alone in the house...there's a knock at the door...you open it, look out, and proceed to scream like a little girl/boy (they kinda scream the same anyway). What's on the doorstep?" /from here the readers continue and their responsences are very variable, from a cosmic guest on the doorstep to the most hated their neighbour or it all is part of somebody's nightmare... The result is very fun, indeed and therefore I like this "game" most for now./

I consider my beginning to be a snippet from my story, which the readers could complete and the end to learn how it happened in the book itself.

I still hope to receive any other tips to use :)))))

Thank you Kay Elizabeth!

Every new idea could be very useful to me :)))))

The live chat will be three hours and I need much help to make it interesting.

I signed up to join the Yahoo Group today so I could attend the chat, Borislava. It would be good if you could confirm the chat details in this thread too for us so it's easy to find.

I have a memory like a sieve so please, somebody send me a message the day before or a few hours before to remind me about it! :)

Cool, thanks very much. :) A backup PM wouldn't hurt either as well as a forum post for my feebleminded self since I get notified of PM's. How's it all coming along, have you made any progress?
