On 11 June 2012, if:book Australia challenged a team of writers and editors to collaborate, write, and publish a book in a single 24-hour period. At midday, the writers gathered at the State Library of Queensland and began working furiously. Their stories were written live on the day, with work in progress posted online to allow readers to watch the story unfold and to submit ideas, suggestions and contributions across media. As the stories were completed, a team of bleary-eyed editors took the text from manuscript to a book.
