In high school, I learned of this way of writing whereby many individuals contributed to a story.
In most cases, I would consider at least one paragraph per person to be sufficient.
However, I think for the juvenile forum purposes, one sentence per person would be adequate.
Therefore, all one has to do is continue the story by adding one setence to what has aleady been read.
The great thing is that one does not have to know what the beginning of the story is about if one is the third or fourth or one-hundredth person posting. One merely has to read the one setence before his or her own posting.
That is why it is considered Tandem.
Linking one thought to another.
Let us see what kind of story we can create.
Remember, that a sentence can be as made as short or as long as one wishes, so long as it follows the grammatical rules.
The first sentence is below:
What did it matter? he thought as he made his way from one room to the next.
