I can see how, with the right team, it could be a lot of fun and a great learning experience. <br /><br />If you haven't yet, check out <a href="http://www.amazon.com/DRACULAS-A-Novel-Terror-ebook/dp/B0042AMD2M/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1380023573&sr=1-1&keywords=draculas" rel="nofollow">Draculas</a> by Joe and his buds. The book itself is great but there is an extra that was, in my opinion, more interesting than the book. They added "an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the writing of , delivered through a collection of over seven hundred emails between the writers as they were brainstorming and writing the book".<br /><br />This was a fascinating look at the writing process itself and in how collaboration can work. For anyone thinking of collaborating, or just interested in writing, it's well worth a read. <br /><br />Also, for anyone working on a collaboration, it might be worth adding something like this to your ebook. As a fan, I really enjoyed it and it also helps interested readers get to know your partnering authors.Colin Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511279879308565952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11291165.post-39780006360310959082013-09-23T16:29:25.452-05:002013-09-23T16:29:25.452-05:00Just starting, Alistair.
