<span style="color: black;"> </span><span style="color: black;">This blog version gathers the chapters under one convenient roof. </span><span style="color: black;">Most of the work on each chapter involved formatting. Chapters operated under their own peculiar blog regimes. Minor alterations were called for during editing, mainly in the cause of consistency.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="color: black;"> All original authors are credited. The shifting nature of the blogosphere precludes hyperlinking to everyone. Blogs shimmer and change. People disappear. (Hence this archival vault.)<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<br /> When <span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><a href="http://kaceyvanderkarr.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">KACEY VANDERKARR</span></a></span><span lang="EN"> </span><s>held me at gunpoint</s> invited me to join her in the BLOGVEL, I checked out the first BLOGVEL generated by Michelle Simkins and Co. I fervently believe that BLOGVEL is, and remains, a Hungarian dish. There is no evidence to the contrary.<br />
What is a BLOG NOVEL? It’s a literary game of pass-the-parcel. (Though the music doesn’t stop.) The first author creates the opening and closing chapters. <s>Lunatics</s> Authors sign up for the game, and carry the story around, hot-potato style, until the work is done. The main challenge is to avoid introducing a dinosaur as soon as chapter one’s relay-baton hands off to chapter two’s author.<br />
