It was a bit late but hope that it doesn't matter. Yesterday, March 14th was World PI day but sadly we couldn't celebrate it here on Indi. So, let's start the celebration for the next year in advance by writing a set of stories. Here is what we need to do.

Each member can post whatever length of the story he wishes to - be it a single sentence or a whole paragraph. The number of words in the sentences of the story when arranged lineraly should read the same as the value of PI.

For example: The value of PI upto 3 decimals is 3.141 The first four sentences should have the following format where W1,W2... W9 are different (or same) words.

W1 W2 W3. W4. W5 W6 W7 W8. W9

Since writing such a story is a difficult task, the rules are flexible as per the situation. Two phrases separated by any of the punctuation marks can be considered to be different or single sentences as per the need. Also, if a sentence has several commas, three of those phrases may be considered to be a single sentence, two another one and so on.... If you have introduced any other flexibilities in your part of the story, be sure to mention them so that they can be updated here. Also if one desires, teh number of words in a sentence can be equal to the sum of two or more consecutive digits.

IMPORTANT: In order to enable others know the point from where the digit from where the story needs to be continued, I am dividing the value of PI in steps of 55 digits ( with an exception to the first) Your part of the reply should be followed by the line number from the list which will be put up with each o the thread and the digits upto which the story has been completed should be made bold. 

If at any time, anyone has made a mistake in the counting of words, some else may rectify the same. If any of the digits have been missed, the same can be added by any other person by making a reply to the reply at the appropriate position.

Since it would be difficult to continue the story beyond a particular point, every story needs to be given an ending at some point of time at the exact ending of any line.

And I also request anyone who is participating in this story writing to make it as interesting as possible as you would have done if it was a feature on your blog. 

Every person before posting his story needs to reply saying that he would be continuing the story.

If there is a clash, i.e more than one person has replied saying that he would continuing the story, the person who has given a reply first will continue the story.

You may if you desire to give a plot for the story do so at any point of time ( provided you reply saying others to Pause ) without actually writing the story or may do both of them 

And each story would be having a theme on which the story will be based on.

Having this story writing open on all the days would make it quite boring. So a few days of pauses would be given after completing each story i.e. every three lines. Let this thread act as a common discussion thread for all the stories that will be coming up. For each new story, I will be starting a new thread and here is the first thread for the first story. PI Story CREATION #1 Friendship 

Suggestions are welcome!
