We started a website years ago to do something very similar. Each poster was allowed to add what they wished to the story I started. Last I heard, the thing is now a novel length story with a darn good twist to plot! The characters were inspired; the people adding to the work really wanted to give writing a try. Yes, the writing was at first juvenile, but it got better very quickly as each person tried harder to make their contribution accurate and correct.

Funny, but I would have given Rebecca a D for failing to complete the assignment and given Gary a C- for failing to attempt to get the assignment back on track when Rebecca killed it.

Giving them an "A" might be appropriate in Psychology class, but they clearly failed to perform the writing assignment at hand.

ROFL. This one really is great. Who needs plot when you have characters like these?

I've never seen it before, it's hilarious. After reading the first paragraph, I was wondering where the guy was gonna go with it... but "Meanwhile, Advance Sergeant Carl Harris, leader of the attack squadron now in orbit over Skylon 4" was not what I expected. Classic.

Cathryn was grateful for the brief puff of coolness that carried the
thin curtain straining against unforgiving curtain rods into the darkening
parlor, watched as the tattered edges rose silently then fell back
against the sill, waiting for a new breath of evening comfort to thicken
the condensation on a half-empty mint julep glass.  The Victrola labored
with a soft grinding sound from hours and hours of use as Ruth
Etting wafted out of a varnished wooden sound horn.

"Button up your overcoat,
  When the wind is free,
  Take good care of yourself,
  You belong to me."

                   [Over to you.]

Little did she know, but she had less than 10 seconds to live.

..you're a self-centered tedious neurotic whose attempts at writing are the literary equivalent of Valium. "Oh shall I have chamomile tea? Or shall I have some other sort of F*CKING TEA??? Oh no, I'm such an air headed bimbo who reads too many Danielle Steele novels."

I am now a fan of Gary!!!

If I was the teacher, the group grade would have been an A. The girl's pathetic writing, however, would earn her an individual grade of C. The male partner, who actually bothered to write more than 3 sentences per paragraph, would get an A individually in addition to being part of the A in the group grade.

Man that girl annoys me. I am glad I haven't had to have a person like that as a partner in college so far.
