And it just keeps going!

This is continuing the Story Time series.
If you have not played before and want to jump in, start at starting. If you're a returning player, go to continuing.
More information and updates can always be found in the storytime thread here

Starting

-Take a piece of paper. Lined notebook paper or plain printer paper are both fine.
-put your swap-bot username on the top. write it neatly. so neatly!
-write one paragraph starting a story. (5-8 sentences). They can be cliches. They can be awful. They can be silly, serious, sexy, whatever.
-send this to your partner.

Continuing

-when you receive a story, read what has been written and add to it. You can add 5-8ish sentences. (Basically, contribute, don't hog).
-you can add twists to the story if you want and derail and get crazy, but try to make it seem like the same story at least.
-this will then be sent on to the partner in the next round.

Ending

-if you get a story that is almost full (front and back) use your judgement. If it doesn't look like there is enough room for another person to contribute you can write a little extra to finish it off.
-when a story is full contact the starter of the story and send it on home to them.

Points

-you can jump in at any time
-you do not have to join all rounds
-if you decide you no longer want to play you need to send the story in your possession to someone who is playing
-you will likely end up working on your own story here and there, it's ok.
-intentionally awful writing is hilarious and I am all for it
-This will be held monthly at minimum
-If you lose someone else's story you owe them a profile based happy mail and heartfelt apology. It's only fair.

dusts off megaphone BEING PUNCTUAL IN BOTH SENDING AND RATING IS REALLY IMPORTANT
We cannot hold the next round until I know everyone has gotten their thing. In bigger groups we could make it more of a free for all, but with this few participants, I need you all to help me out here.
Rate when you receive, and, if you really love me, post it in the story time thread as well. Thanks!

edit: Oh man, I am supah dumb. I just looked at a calendar and realized I had this swap scheduled to take place over Thanksgiving. I moved it out to the week after Thanksgiving.
Dumb holidays making things all complicated. Hope that works better for everyone now!
