Short Story Jam - You're Invited To Join In!
"There's more life happening within one square inch of viewable outer space than on the entire planet Earth," he blurted out one day during a conversation with two fellow mail sorters. This, even though said conversation had previously been about the differences between stewardesses and flight attendants, and despite the fact that Stanley's only previous contribution to the chat had been "Snakes On a Plane is my favorite movie," a comment met by his coworkers with little more than external indifference and internal disdain.— August 31, 2010 8:49 a.m.
Short Story Jam - Are There Heroes In Hell?
Thanks, Nan! We usually just start with a paragraph and wing it from there. With above story, we both talked about liking horror novels, but there was no specific plan to take the tale in that direction. I'll start a new jam story as a new blog entry today - anyone is welcome to post the next paragraph as a comment. I'll take the new paragraphs as they come in and add them to the body of the blog entry itself. First paragraph posted will be the first added to the story text. After a few days, any time I add new text to the story, this will likely require posting as a "new" blog entry (the Reader network automatically - and frustratingly - launches under a new clean url whenever you revise a blog entry after several days have passed). This will clear the previous comment threads. However, I'll keep track of who donated each paragraph, in case someone wants to reference later --- Let's write!— August 30, 2010 6:33 p.m.

If others on the Reader website would like to share-jam some fiction, let me know and I’ll post an opening paragraph!— August 28, 2010 6:59 p.m.
