metatext project 4

For project 4 I began a narrative and emailed people in my address list to please add to the story. Some could not follow directions, and several more did not bother to reply. Overall I think the project turned our o.k., but I would have liked to have seen many more people reply. I think the story could have gotten really interesting had many more people gotten involved. I tried to begin the narrative by being pretty general, so others could be creative and take it where they wanted to go. I didn't want them to feel like I was leading them in any certain direction to write. I wanted them to be as creative as possible.
