Rotate narrators by chapter
Rotating narration scene by scene is great, but it would allow players to stretch their legs a little more and create their own story arcs if the option to rotate narrators could be set to a chapter by chapter basis in addition to or instead of scene by scene. It keeps the collaborative nature of scene-by-scene but allows for deeper content.

This might just extend a story's life span. Supported

Don't have votes left, but I do want to express support here: I think this would be a great option to add to the rotating narration concept. Allow the host to choose if they want the narration to rotate on a scene basis or a chapter basis--both are good concepts.
A scene-by-scene basis is more openly collaborative, with each narrator having to build off of what someone else wrote even in the midst of a chapter or story segment.
A chapter-by-chapter basis more fits the "rotating GM" model used by some tabletop groups, where each chapter can kind of be its own story and each narrator can just concentrate on keeping the general themes of the story going.
I think both would be rather interesting, and would love to see the chapter approach supported without losing the scene approach.
