Creative work contribution system

Abstract

Described is a creative work contribution system. The system includes a server, a creator computing device and a plurality of contributor computing devices. The creator computing device and the plurality of contributor computing devices may be coupled to the server. The server may be programmed to receive and store a creative work request from the creator computing device; automatically process the creative work request and send the creative work request to the plurality of contributor computing devices for display and for entering contributions to the creative work request; receive and store the contributions entered by the plurality of contributor computing devices; and automatically deliver the received contributions entered by the plurality of contributor computing devices for display on the creator computing device. The system allows for crowd sourcing of creative input into specific types of creative works to help a creator overcome mental obstacles.
