Collaborative Writing

For a bit of fun try this collaborative writing tool from Google. You can write a few words and then a famous writer joins in, writing with you in their own style.  They might change or delete your words using their own style.  They might add an adjective or change a verb and your completed work may have additions from many authors such as Edgar Allan Poe, Dickens and Shakespeare, colour coded, so you know who has intervened!
