6/17/13 Once Upon A Meeting

Once upon a time at Boulder Cafe, half of the writers couldn't make the meeting. The rest who could come, played two rounds of the awesome fun game Once Upon A Time after they read a couple prompts from last week. The prompts are now postponed to next week so that the writers who did not write will have a chance to and hopefully more will feel better by then.

What is the game Once Upon A Time? According to its publisher:

Tell your own fantastic tales of brave heroes and daring adventure!

Once Upon a Time is the award-winning storytelling card game that encourages creativity and collaborative play. One player is the Storyteller, and begins telling a story using the fairytale elements on her Story cards, guiding the plot toward her Ending Card. The other players use their own cards to interrupt her and become the new Storyteller. The winner is the first player to use all her Story Cards and play her Ending Card. The object of the game, though, isn't just to win, but to have fun telling a story together.

Want to see how it plays out? There is one of two ways you can do: 1) Come to Write Club and play! -OR- 2) Watch the Youtube video of the TV nerd Wil Wheaton play with his friends.
