This is a great idea. I like your approach. Anything like this should avoid some central person pooling money together and trying to profit from other peoples work, and from what I see here you've done that so well done, I support this.

Hey @personz. Thanks a lot for the support and the feedback. I really appreciate both mate. I'd love it to be completely community driven and maybe at some point set up a separate account where everything can be completely transparent but for the time being it's going to take some work bringing attention to the project and hopefully getting enough support that it can be successful in future. For now I'm trying to work out how to best approach it and will hopefully be setting up a discord server soon ot try and get more people involved. I'd appreciate it if you keep track of things as time affords you and give any suggestions or support where you can. :)
I had a look at your Nth Society project as well and that seems like a really interesting idea that I will keep tabs on myself but I'm not very technically minded so not sure I could be much help I'm afraid. :) Sounds like a lot of fun though if you can make it a reality. :)
Thanks again for the comment and sorry the post was so long. :)
Have a great day mate!
I think there are some initiatives under the creative-commons tag that is also getting people to collaborate and contribute for the community, although most of it has been spear-headed by artists rather than writers (of the more non-fictional genres). But that's not to say that a similar model wouldn't work in getting a body of work written and published and I think perhaps the proof-of-concept needs to be how different people can co-author and publish something in a similar way to wikipedia (if that's an appropriate model for what you are thinking of)?
