Hi Folks, It's been a couple of days since Novel is released and I've fixed some of the issues and added a couple features so you can have a better co-writing experience.

"Novel", as the title suggest is a collaborative storytelling platform, where people write an story together, piece by piece.

If you're feeling creative today, go ahead and add a piece to one of the existing stories, or even create your own story and let the other to contribute to it.

Novel is open source (https://github.com/thevahidal/novel) and you can contribute to its development and also submit any issues that you face.

Let me know what you think, and please send me any ideas that you have to improve Novel.

Looking forward to your stories.

Peace, Vahid.

Ha! We usually play that with family around Christmas. It's fun with all ages.

In France we also have a variant of this where you only see the last line of text until you've added your part, which makes for very whacky stories. Maybe a fun variant to add? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exquisite_corpse

Hey, yeah we played the same game with our friends. Everyone should say the sentence from the beginning without any missing word and then they add a new word! I actually thought about how we can do the same thing in Novel! Thanks for the suggestion!

Somewhat off-topic: This reminds me of an article I read about law-making in Taiwan. Iirc there is some kind of crowd-sourced composition, with branches, versions, voting, etc. Unfortunately I don't recall any key words and I don't speak chinese, so I'm unable to research this topic further. Can anybody help me find more info about this?

Seems interesting!

Oh man, this reminds me of four years ago when I build just such a thing for my group of friends. It was so much fun! I just went back to it and found some stories that made me so nostalgic. Thank you!

I love your project!

Edit: I created an account, and tried to add a snippet to the story. I was sort of into it and when I clicked add, it prompted me to fill in my profile. It took me out of it a bit.

Hey man, Thanks for the kind words, I'm sorry for the inconvenience that you faced, I'll fix this problem asap. Hope to see you back!

Your website appears to have been taken over by political bots.. .

:))

This is quite cool

Thanks!
