Stories in need of a line
What is Byline?
A multiplayer creative writing experience where a group of authors creates a story, one line at a time.
How does it work?
Loosely based on exquisite corpse, each author writes a line having only seen the line directly before theirs. Once complete, the creator titles the story and shares it with the group.
Is this a game?
Yes! Get started by creating a story and sharing it with friends. Don't know any writers? No problem. Post your story to Byline and you'll meet some!
Who does the writing?
Public Stories
If you create a story (by clicking the new story button 
) and don’t invite other authors, then it posts publicly to Byline and can be contributed to by any author on the platform.
Private Stories
If you invite individual people (by username, email, or phone number) and make sure Plus others on Byline is deselected then your story becomes private and only those invited can contribute.
