I had been intending to write a book for a long time but all my ideas became non-starters. I realised that I was good at ideation but lacked the skill of elaboration. My efforts of looking for a ghost writer were also unsuccessful.
So I put on my thinking cap to figure a way out of this challenge. Necessity, they say, is the mother of all invention. And Eureka! I came up with the idea of a “crowd-sourced” book. The idea was simple. Get many people to write a few pages each – edit it and put it together in the form of a book.
