Teagan R. Geneviene contributed the first set of inspirational doors to this year’s Thursday Doors Writing Challenge. I thanked her and I mentioned that I might like to build a story around her first door. She suggested that we could collaborate on a story. She asked me some questions, so the important elements of the story would have input from both of us. Then she began writing. Then she asked me to continue from the point she left off. Then she finished the story.
We had done this before, but not to this extent. When I was in the very early stages of writing my books, Teagan helped me get used to writing something “unbloglike” by conducting a series of writing exercises with/for me. I appreciated those exercises, and I appreciate her inviting me to work with her on this story. I think it turned out well. I know many of you read both our blogs, and you’ve already seen this, but I wanted to share the story.
Note: I will be losing electricity for a while this morning as crews complete some upgrades to our local grid. Feel free to comment at Teagan’s place.
