How it works

Storybooks, written by many people.

Each one is built a part at a time. Here's how.

  1. 1

    It starts with an opening

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

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

    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.

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

    Every part gets an illustration

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