Player A faces a line of players. The first player in the line fires a word at Player A, who immediately responds back with any word. Then the next player in line fires a word. Again, Player A responds with any word. This process continues down the line, with Player A responding as quickly as possible. After reaching the end of the line, Player A takes the first position in line and the last player in line (Player B) steps out to face the firing line. Player A fires the first word and Player B responds. The process continues down the line. The pattern repeats until each player has faced the firing line.
While driving the narrative forward, it’s good to glance in the rear view mirror from time to time. As the story advances, earlier elements resurface. They’re reincorporated. This interconnectedness gives stories a sense of unity. Things that appeared earlier take on new significance later in the story.
