QUICK-SHIFT
Quick-shift is the opportunity for writers to do intense and interactive writing online in realtime during the weekend of 26-27 January 2002.
The event runs from 5:00PM GMT on Saturday through MIDNIGHT GMT on Sunday. The 31 hours of timed, responsorial writing online are divided into 20 shifts of 90 minutes each and a final "RUN TO GOAL" round in which all writers are invited to participate.
Each shift has 4 writers who gather together in a chatroom and who take turns writing in response to the previous text.
A writer is given a maximum of 7 minutes in which to write (and proof-read) a piece in response to the previous segment before speaking up in the chatroom to "pass the baton" to the next writer.
There are no restrictions on genre.
QUICK-SHIFT is co-managed by Andrew Oldham and Everdeen Tree.
