Harness the power and beauty of github to publish, document and maintain your work.
Trying out the principles here.
Experimenting with a manifesto, like dogme 95 for film in the 90s. Still working on it. Please contribute!
- Rapid iterations (with giterate or similar tool)
- Radical openness
- Open source tools only
- A simple markdown editor is enough (no fancy word processors)
- Followers can contribute via pull requests (for contributions, proofreading etc)
- Text organized using directory structure (e.g. /novel/chapter_about_fishes/README.md)
- Publishing means updating current README.md (no finalizing...)
- No horizontal links, only vertical
- Use reddit to upvote/downvote projects, chapters, plotlines etc.
hack!
