Is the novel immune from being swept up into the fashion for collaborative activity? Well, this is what we are going to try and discover with A Million Penguins, a collaborative, wiki-based creative writing exercise.

We’ll see in a couple of months.
It will be interesting to see if you can crowdsource creativity in this way.
