How it works

A chapbook is a small, unbound story booklet, passed hand to hand until the story belongs to no one in particular. Here, each one is written by many people, a part at a time.

i.It starts with an opening

Someone writes the first part, a few short paragraphs that set the scene. That becomes Part 1.

ii.Anyone writes what happens next

You add your continuation, and so do others. They compete to become the next part. You can't write two parts in a row, so it stays a real collaboration.

iii.The community picks the winner

Readers vote on the continuations, and the book's creator confirms the one that becomes canon. The rest stay as paths not taken.

iv.Books end when an ending wins

Any continuation can be written as an ending. If it wins, the book is finished and moves to the Shelf.

v.Every part gets an illustration

Each canon part is illustrated in black and white. The first one becomes the book's cover.
