You are handed one. You hand one on.

Before opening the box, every reader can prepare a message. It goes into the box after the story has been read, and stays there until the box is opened again. By anyone. By whoever comes next.

No one knows how that message will affect the story. But affect it, it will.

If an envelope is blinking on the box, someone left a message for you. What was in it can only be found out after the box is opened.

But you can leave yours too.

That is how it works — it is passed to you, you pass it on.

Your story doesn't exist yet.

It's neither written nor unwritten — until you open a box and collapse it into being.
