Litchain Guidelines

Litchains are story chains, or a set of phrases or fragment that connects together to form a story, this is a multi-author effort and one must excercise proper coordination with other writers in order to create a coherent story.

Here's some guidelines in making a successful litchain:

  • Know your queue: everyone who participates in litchains has a queue so it's more organized. Usually its the second author being the first to write and the starting author being the last writer.

    • however, the starting writer is always and foremost the writer that sets the lens and the theme of the story, and their starting storyline, albeit incomplete, would be followed by the other writers.

  • Follow the context: In order for the story to be coherent and streamlined, all phrases must fit snugly into each other, making a whole story when backlogged. Making a derailed twist will render the chain invalid

  • Write short: It is recommended you write short as you only need ample amount of paragraphs then end with [continue] which indicates where to start for the next writer. Too long and you spoil the fun for the others
