Submit to Blog + Book = Blook, You Write The Book or Blook

Here is your chance to see your stories in print. Here is your chance to be part of this great anthology. This is like the nanowrimoma writing experience. You can submit your writings any time you wish. This is your chance to write the book or blook. Submit your stories, poems, or meditations. If they are accepted, they will be published on this blog. The best ones will be selected to be part of an anthology or blook. This is like Post-Secret. Yes, you may submit your memoirs, secrets, confessionals in less than 500-words.

This is not a lot to ask. In one seating, you can write more than a 500-word story.

It can be done here. You can do it. Jeff Jarvis came up with the idea on BuzzMachine. He is credited to have created the word blook. Blookmark.com defines "Blook." Wikipedia defines the word this way, "One definition of blook is a book serialized on a blog site. Chapters are published one by one as blog posts, and readers can then subscribe to a blook with an RSS feed, tag it, comment on it, etc. This type of blook was popularized by Tom Evslin in September 2005, with the launch of hackoff.com, a murder mystery set in the dot-com bubble. ::: Blooks can include online material. For example, hackoff.com includes both a wiki and a faux company website for the fictional company described in the book. ::: Another definition of blook is a printed book whose content was originally posted on a blog. Tony Pierce published a blook of this type in 2002 which was actually named Blook after Jeff Jarvis of BuzzMachine invented the term."
