What if I gave you the epilogue, could you then write the story that would lead to it?

So there I was, doing my best to translate what was supposed to become my first to be published book. Only had finished the first part. No hurry, probably needed some rewriting anyway. And it is in Nederlands, or Nederish, just like Scotland has got it's Scottisch and in England they speak English. Anyway, just as difficult as it is to write a complete book over a period of years, it is even more difficult to translate it. While writing from the mind is fun, almost transic, translating is boring, well to me it is. It resulted in a dead line, where I had created a deadline for myself. Okay, so, that's not going to work. And I've only finished one part of the book, or what was supposed to be one.

For no apparant reason I started to translate the epiloque of the first part, after the first chapter went horribly wrong. Some things just don't work out the way the are supposed to. And while I almost finished the epiloque for 'Children of the moon', I had this 'AHA' moment. What if I would publish the epilogue of part one, that is in the spirit of Yule Tide, and leave it open for your imagination to fill in? Wow, woow, woooooow, wooooot! Okay, calm down, no more coffee for me...

Seriously though, what if I published this as the start of a bookchain? After all, you and I know how to write, right? We are here at this beautifull Steem ON Graphene {SONG} blockchain. Our world wide social media community blog together and has started many different collaborations in the proces. And what can be done with Graphics, music, can be done with writing too, could it not? Hey, we are on a platform that has the potential to do so, second to none!

It's like trying to kick in an already open door, I know...

But, what do you think? What would have to be the major tag to be used? This could spin off in so many different ways. It could go to a dead end too, but maybe somebody would write a new epilogue, to another inspiring story. Thought to use 'bookchain' as the main tag. Some graphics to match. Maybe in different languages?

Let your mind wander about, share your thoughts. Could we link it, or would it be linked by a main tag?
Share your thoughts, let's go crazy!
