Okay, more data entry.
Shall we start a #ChainStory today? Something with a spooky theme, perhaps?
I'm thinking one line at a time, with each person adding more chaos, intrigue, adventure, and shivers to the last.
This opener is inspired by M.R. James and @JGSchaeffer ❤️:
"After my last visit to the coast, where we cast my grandfather's ashes into the wind atop a cliff he'd walked every day for half a century, the ocean followed me wherever I would roam."

You folks are menaces! 🙃 We have four chains going, and some very clear rule-breakers (but all in good fun).
If you want to see how the stories are progressing, here's the flowchart so far.
Check the thread if you want to add more! Each vein is going in a very different direction!

We used to do stories like this on the Marilyn Manson BBS late at night, circa 2001 (or maybe 2?). I love them. I will help continue the one i stepped in to do, but tonight is a busy night so i'll be back for it tomorrow. ❤️ From now on, if i'm drawing a blank (or just busy and have to leave for awhile), i'll add a '*' to the end of my post so y'all know. 🙂
@MLClark My brother and I used to do “fold over stories” on long car trips… each person could only see the last line of a paragraph from the other. I instituted this tradition on a college geology trip and the results were epic (but not entirely G-rated!)
