Writers are always lamenting the lonely journey of being in a room by oneself armed with just words and coffee. Other artists seem to enjoy the benefits of collaboration, why not us?
Enter The Owls, a self-described “site for collaborative writing projects.” One such project was created by the poet Sean Hill. He’s asked writers to respond to the prompt : “A Natural History of My _______.” Posted every Wednesday, here’re a few samples from the site: Brian Barker with “A Natural History of My Curiousity” and Danielle Evans with “A Natural History of My Earlobes.”
Other cool stuff includes a project called Stamps where writers are asked: “What place do you write about or think about, and why? Is there a location – in space or time, real or imaginary, past, present, or future – that draws you back again and again? What happened there?”
Beautiful internet collaborative wonder.
