Hi,
  I don't mean to interrupt the creative flow here, but I thought I'd
let you know about a new creative writing web site.  It's at
http://www.fictionfactory.net/

  The way it works is this.
    1. Creative Person A signs up as a new member (it's free, of
course), and starts a new story.
    2. Then Person A invites Person's B and C (and D and E and F.....)
to participate in the story.
    3. Persons B and C accept the invitation (and sign up if they're not
already members).
    4. Person A initiates the story by entering the first line.
    5. The system randomly selects one of the other participants to add
the next line and emails them a notification that it's their turn.
    6. The process continues until the story is finished (length preset
by Person A).

It's really fun to watch these stories unfold.
