A 21st Century Collaborative Phenomenon. (Darlin' Neal, Kim Chinquee, Pia Ehrhardt, Kathy Fish, Girija Tropp, Jeff Landon) Our event focuses on an international online writing community, a 21st century phenomenon. Panel members will discuss their collaborative experience of generating ideas through the use of prompts through to revision and their work together on many forms of fiction from flash to novels. Members hail from the US, Australia, South Africa, South America and other regions and have published widely since the group's onset and attribute success to this collaborative support. We will discuss ways this intimate international forum alters and enriches the form and vision of our fiction.
