It’s a magical realism mystery, written line-by-line in the comments.

Let’s write this summer into something legendary!

We are building a story together one twist, turn, and magical mystery at a time.

Can’t wait to read what you write!

From now through Labor Day Weekend (September 1, 2025), we’re building one continuous story in the comments of this post. It begins with a single paragraph written below, and you (yes, you!) are invited to add the next part.

The result? A community-written tale, with twists and turns shaped by the imagination of our readers. Once summer ends, we’ll polish the story and e-book, crediting each contributor by name or pseudonym.

Finally! We’re ready to share our beautiful story by means of this webblog. From now on we’re going to share all the news of TooManyStories, but also inspirational content that we encounter on our journey.
