I came to know about this nice website while reading CEan Kidakaka's blog - Who? Me?? Check out - OurOwnBook.com - Anyone can Write! OOB allows collaborate with writers from across the world to write a book! How cool is that I was thinking - what could be the future of this venture? Next Harry Potter comes from authors on the OOB site? Who knows?
I love that concept. I used to read stories on Fictionpress alot! Perhaps the good thing about OOB is that it has a direction, and not a scramble of different ideas. I've tried writing a novel before about basketball, but quickly ran out of steam after a few chapters I thought a engineering story would be too formal. But, maybe we can have a adventure-cum-engineer tale? Sorta on the lines of MacGyver (yes, Im a big fan of that) mixed with indiana jones?
