Not sure how this will go down, but I thought I would test the waters...
Let's say we have a couple of fictional novels with us. We take one out, and everyone around the table blindly opens the book to a certain page. They read that page, and then they have to write a short poem about the contents of the page (this could be from a character's perspective, the setting, the events, or whatever catches your attention!). We then all read our poems in the ascending order of the pages everyone selected. Then we see if the poems joined together make any kind of story similar to the actual novel!
This could also be companied with feedback on poems, even though they are all written on the spot!
What does everyone think?
