By brilliantjeni • Aug 19th, 2008 • Category: Blogosphere News, Pointless Fun, Who's Who in the BlogosphereWriter and avid plurker, R. Alexander Spoerer (Plurk AKA Renegade) has come up with a unique use for his social media time- he’s using it to write a novel! 140 words at a time, Spoerer has created different plurk accounts for each character, with a dialogue that will run for several months ultimately completing the novel.
To follow the story, plurkers add three characters to their Friend List, following the conversations plurk by 140 word plurk.
Spoerer is planning to run the story for at least a few months but readers can catch up on the storyline so far by clicking here: http://callinghome.tumblr.com
