It's a free download (put a fake email address and name in, otherwise you'll probably be spammed to high heaven), and looks quite interesting. A short story played out throught simulated email messages. Curious. I'll let you know what I think of it.

Finished it. Its a bit crap, with a standard plot twist an a saccharine sweet “everything works out ok” ending.

Still, it’s a curious and interesting medium to tell a story with.

It’s quite interesting when it gets going. Not particularly well written or anything, but compulsive in a voyeuristic way.

It’s also quite weird to read a story in a medium that I have never encountered before.

Currently on week 3 , Friday.
