Just to note: I'm not asking anyone to buy anything. I have a copy of the book in .pdf and I can share it. The point of using Microscope is to have a fun way of creating a story and all the participants get to add their part - it's fun! Additionally, since our personalities probably differ, it's a good way of adding multiple elements to our story.
We can follow a traditional approach, but it's something new I'd like to try out and it seems cool enough.
