Dear Friends:

This is an announcement for a new little project on Twitter called "ExquisiteCorps1: An Experiment in Twitterature." I have created a new twitter profile called "ExquisiteCorps1" located at http://twitter.com/exquisitecorps1. Here's the basic idea. You decide you want to participate so you complete the following steps:

1) start following exquisitecorps1

2) write to me (gregoryptm@gmail.com) and I'll give you the password (laughably easy) for the profile.

3) promote exquisitecorps1 to your feed of followers.

4) Whenever you see an exquisitecorps1 post that you want to add to (in the manner of the "exquisite corpse" parlour game explained in detail here, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exquisite_Corpse) logout as yourself, login as "exquisitecorps1" and make your post, then logout again to give other a chance to pay.

I have limited this invitation to four people I know with twitter accounts. Please, feel free to pass this along and to pass along the password once you know it if you think someone is interested in playing. It's just an experiment and I want to see what happens to it.

cheers
