The 6th Floor Blog: Write a Short Story With Kate Atkinson!

1:39 p.m. | Updated Read the full story below.

In Sunday's magazine, Sarah Lyall writes about Kate Atkinson, a novelist whose "true genius," Lyall writes, is structure: "Her books wend forward and backward, follow multiple stories from multiple points of view, throw dozens of balls up in the air — but always conclude with loose ends tied up, so that everything makes sense."

We wanted to try some wending of our own, with Atkinson as the guide, so we invited you to join us in a game of Exquisite Corpse. Here's how it worked: Kate Atkinson started off our story at 11 a.m. with a single sentence, which we tweeted from @NYTmag using the hashtag #NYTMagStory. Readers could suggest the next sentence on Twitter using the same hashtag, and could continue refreshing this post to see the most recent sentence.

Here's a slightly edited version of what we came up with, complete with a closing line from our culture editor, Adam Sternbergh.
