The Parenathon is a collaborative writing event where participants come together to create a story or narrative, often using prompts and themes to guide their contributions. This event typically encourages creativity, teamwork, and spontaneity, allowing writers to build upon each other's ideas in real-time. It can take various forms, including online forums or in-person gatherings, and is enjoyed by both amateur and seasoned writers. The goal is to produce a cohesive piece of work through collective effort.
