"Hush. hush," Sang the wind, gently blowing the leaves across the soft green grass. The stars danced up above, shining their light down from the heavens and into the bedroom of a little girl named Clara, who slept oh so soundly in her canopy bed, dreaming of fairies and butterflies, fluttering around her head. In the next room slept her mother and father, peacefully, curled into one another arms as though never wanting to let go. And in the last room slept Clara's brother, Walker, who sat up in his bed, groaning because of his lassitude and unable to fall asleep.

Fabulate | The Collaborative Book Project
"Fabulate" is a project designed to combine the skills and ideas of authors and writers from around the world, to produce a collaborative story every participant can jointly claim credit for. How many people have ideas that never get developed? How many people start writing books but fail to finish? In the current text messaging/tweeting/web 2.0 world, we are sharing every part of our life; inviting others to join us, comment on, and share our thoughts, yet all within the restrictions of 160 or 140 characters. "Fabulate" was conceived with this information in mind. The idea is simple, participating is just as easy and succesful particpants may be rewarded for their contributions.
We believe in the art of creating stories and the craft of sharing them. We are inspired by the written word and the authors that link words and phrases together to form tales. Ficly is a place for playing with story-telling; a collaborative environment where anyone can pick up a narrative thread and weave a prequel or sequel.
