The copy currently on the page is too long. Here is a proposed rewrite;

A Million Penguins is an experiment in creative writing and community. Anyone can join in. Anyone can write. Anyone can edit. Let’s see if the crowds are not only wise, but artistic. Or will too many cooks spoil the broth?

If you want to take part, please take a moment to read the technical and ethical guidelines shown on the left. We will ask you to register to participate, and to look at the terms and conditions before you join in. But the most important thing we ask is that if you are not happy to have your contributions edited, altered or removed by other contributors, think carefully before signing up.

You can follow the progress of the wikinovel here or at the wikinovel blog where a Penguin editor will be writing regular reading reports on the work in progress.

Can a million penguins sitting at a million keyboards together write a novel? Let’s find out.
