Create the weirdest, funniest, spookiest, strangest story you can. POST DIRECTLY TO BYLINE Write the first line to your story and post on the site for strangers to finish. INVITE YOUR FRIENDS Write the first line to your story and then send it to a specific group of people you know. Once finished, you decide who can view.
