New Writing

Two new services aimed at writers and writing drifted into my view lately. Collaborations can use Glypho and Writely to jointly create and publish works online. Some writers are enthusiastic about collaborating, especially cross-formats, like author Damian McNicholls working with a playwright to produce a script based on his debut novel A Son Called Gabriel. Writers who generate many "high concepts", but have difficulty bringing anything to fruition, welcome the opportunity for input from other writers strong in moving plots along. Collaborations aren't for everybody, but the Internet is making them more a possibility than ever before. [writing]
