The SpyScribes began with SpyScribe 01 who was originally known
as a "guerilla short story writer." 01's activities consisted largely
of jumping out from behind bushes and handing people samples of her work.
While this frequently produced interesting or (at the very least) surprised
feedback, the rewards of such a life were limited to the moment, and the
fruits of 01's efforts could only be experienced by people who happened
to be walking by certain bushes.
SpyScribe 01 decided what was really needed was an increase in forces,
but as the term "guerilla" tended to either scare people off, or lead them
to offer her bananas in payment for her stories, she decided on the less
cumbersome nominative, "SpyScribe."
And so the ranks of the newly formed SpyScribes began to grow.
However, as they spread out into the world, SpyScribes sometimes found
themselves in urban areas where it was difficult to find appropriate shrubbery
from which to distribute their work. SpyScribe 01 (as she was now
known) was undaunted and began to search for a new, appropriately random,
place to distribute fiction. And so, she found the World Wide Web,
surely the most appropriate venue to be wished.
SpyScribes come from many different walks of life and pursue many varied
careers in addition to their random fiction.
There are currently four SpyScribes posting at SpyScribe HQ: SpyScribe
01, 47, 23, and 86. Among the others: a few are avowed technophobes,
some are on assignment and currently incommunicado, and many have simply
vanished into obscurity when asked to produce soft-copy of their work.
