ABSTRACT:
A time limited game for a group of player-participants to share in the composition of several short stories, and including the means to achieve such composition. A timer is provided for limiting writing time. Five sets of cards are provided to determine a character profile for each player's main character. A spinner is provided to determine the genre category in which each player is required to compose. Participants compose the beginnings of a short story in the genre chosen, about a character described by the character cards and write as much as possible within a set time limit. At the end of the time limit, story compositions are passed to the player at each player's left, and writing continues for another set time limit. The same process is repeated until all participants have contributed to every other participant's story once. Story endings and story titles are added. Stories are read and awards are given for different categories of composition. The player with the most awards is declared the winner.
