We Tell Stories is an alternate reality game launched in March 2008 by Six to Start in conjunction with Penguin publishers. Six authors have contributed stories to the project, one each week, which are displayed on the site using interactive internet media. Penguin are offering a prize of 1300 books to readers who can answer a series of questions based on the stories. The site received nearly 50,000 unique visitors in its first week. In March 2009, at the SXSW Web Awards, We Tell Stories won the Award in the experimentation category and the overall Best of Show Award. ==The six stories== Each of the six stories is inspired by a Penguin classic novel. #Charles Cumming, The 21 Steps; based on The 39 Steps by John Buchan #:In this fast-paced thriller readers follow the protagonist, Rick, on his journeys by the medium of Google Maps. #Toby Litt, Slice; based on The Haunted Dolls’ House by M R James #:A troubled American girl is brought to London by her parents to make a fresh start.
