Each person tells a true story from their own experience. (Obviously, we can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t tell if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve made things up. That is between you and your conscience.)<br \/>\n2. Keep it brief; we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re looking for vignettes and koans, not epics<br \/>\n3. Each story has to be linked to a previous anecdote by some shared concept, some common theme or element.<br \/>\n4. Cite the element you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve used as a link. Try to go for solid links: physical objects, specific words (punning encouraged).<br \/>\n5. This is a multi-stranded string of pearls. A single story can spawn more than one successor, and an anecdote can combine more than one antecedent.<br \/>\n6. Poetry is, of course, encouraged<br \/>\n7. Do I need to mention that this is a non-political thread? If your story is political, try not to make it partisan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oxlin&#8217;s suggestion, from an idea she found on another website.
