I think this is a cool idea - one of my favorite people to be around is the one who helped me get diagnosed and we talk online mostly because of the eye contact thing and I can talk online and when I try to do it in person my brain shuts off . . .
So, anyway, we have a lot of people in common so we tend to end up at the same events (i.e. the person I like to be around's son's funeral last night) - so we got this idea to describe them from each person's point of view in e-mails to show the differences - this has been just something fun to do for a few weeks - but a friend of hers is a publisher and she told her about this idea and she wants to turn it into a book! Wow!

This thread is (kind of) old but I thought I'd bring it up...
I thought it was really cool you guys were doing that. It's so funny; I'm actually in the midst of writing (and rewriting and rewriting and rewriting and rewriting) a book of fiction, where I'm writing the same plot from about ten different peoples' perspectives. 
(Which is, by the way, excrutiatingly difficult for me. All of my characters keep ending up sounding like the same person.)
Anyways, I just wanted to say congratulations on it, and good luck, and to share this. I was re-reading through the threads and thought it was such a coincidence!

That is cool! We turn the first chunk of the book in to the publisher next week (with my new job this person I like to be around is handling all the technical stuff since I'm VERY busy) . . . I'm pretty excited!
