We tellstories, is an impressive experimental project in online story telling. Six stories are being posted online over the course of six weeks, each has a different theme and execution and is based on or inspired by a Penguin Classic.

Week one ‘The 21 Steps’ is a Google Mash Up that takes in cue from the classic ‘The 39 Steps’.
Week two sees a story, ‘Slice’ told through a series of blogs and Twitter entries.

It backs up an already impress list of online launches including amillionpenguins.com (a Wiki novel), Spine Breakers (a book community for teenagers) and Blog a Penguin Classic (blogging and user-reviews for Penguin Classic).

Good to see publishers getting online and embracing digital media in such creative ways.
