    a tiny idea

    Hello!

    well I shall try to explain

    I suggest to all members and MasterAdmin to create two new threads in the book review forum - two books - one is being written in Russian (by the members who learn Russian) and the second book is being written in English by local Russians. It seems that their number is equal or so. Russians help to correct grammar in the "Russian book" and in turn English speaking members help to lead the English book. Now the main and simple rules:

    1 everyone writes by ONE sentance in their turn (only in Russian/only in English respectevelly)
    2 you can not write your sentance until TWO sentances appiered after yours.
    3 the plot is only a matter of our fantasy and sense of word - you can turn the action wherever your mind could wish but you should make your efforts to not write nonsense and make the story look interesting and fun.
    4 You can neither write the end nor finish the story.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Well, now what would you say?
    Я так думаю.

    Sounds like a riot. I already started the Russian version. It can be moved if need be.

    I'm glad you liked it!
    And I forgot about one more rule - when you continue the story better copy and paste everything written above and then add your sentance - to not make evryone start to read from the first page.
    ok?
    shall we try?

    ---------------------
    so I have just started the English version.
    I hope someone could join and try theirselves.
    Remember - it's made for two reasons:

    for fun
    for training your ability to write in the foreign language
    for...fun
    for having chance to express yourself or your current mood which is often fun
    aaaand...for training your ability in the foreign language
    and for fun of course! Everyone tryed to write a story at least once in their life!
    the last reason is that we could sell our book for one million dollars and pay off the internet fees of this beautiful forum for hundred years. Which could make so much fun that you couldn't imagine.

    that is more than just two reasons

    still wainting?

    Please, again:
    Every Russians write in the Neverending thread and only in English
    If they write incorrect grammar, please somebody correct them (shortly - just quote the last phrase with red marks or better be kind and PM the Russian)

    Everyone who don't speak Russian and learn it please write in Бесконечная нитка - write only in Russian.

    NOW. Please write like usually - start your post pasting the previous story and then add your phrase. Then finish your phrase with the one point [.]

    Thanks a lot to everyone who joined and participated!
