Making long-form content isn’t easy, especially alone. After spending time in a few creative groups, I saw how much better it is when people collaborate.
Our community collaborates (or steals) in two ways:
(1) CoCreate, lets users invite others to contribute. (2) CoSteal, allows users to contribute wherever they see fit.
Users upvotes their favorites, creating a continuous cycle that doesn't finish, but dies.

This is a Text block that someone has attempted to steal using CoSteal. In the bottom left, you can see a CoSteal block with the number '3' in brackets, indicating that three people have used CoSteal.
Click on 'CoSteal' below to open the drop-down menu of alternative endings. When you're finished, return to the default author to continue with the example. Click Reset costeal to default if the drop down menu breaks.
