Wow! The response to this storytelling experiment has been amazing!
The Twitter community has really embraced this idea, retweeting it hundreds of times and in many different languages too! Mainstream publications such as Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, CNet.com, and more have also spread the news.

Of course, we're so excited to have the amazing, bestselling and award-winning Neil Gaiman kicking things off for us at Noon EST today. He gave us a sneak peek at his opening and it's fantastically imaginative and chilling. (Just like you'd expect from the author of Coraline and The Graveyard Book!)

Then it will be up to you! Remember that you can see all the submitted tweets by searching the hashtag #bbcawdio if you like, but we'll be retweeting the ones that push the story forward in new and interesting directions at @BBCAA. We'll try to shape a narrative out of all your creative ideas as quickly and spontaneously as possible. So bear with us! It will be messy and chaotic and maybe we'll go off in some crazy directions. But that's all part of the fun.

Once we're approaching 1000 lines retweeted, we'll cap things off. (Please keep in mind we are but human and may need to take some hiatuses in there!) But you can continue the story. Maybe there'll be sequels and trilogies? It's all up to you. Stay tuned to this blog because we'll summarize the story in progress as we go.

Thanks for joining us on this storytelling adventure!
