Andre Bréton and Paul Éluard did it, modern poets also do it sometimes. TV writers however write
collaboratively on a daily basis. They think up and write down shows together, as
a group, in what is called a ‘room’ where shows and episodes get defined and
developed. Lest we think this a rare, exceptional type of collaboration, the TV
writers have gotten it down to a working routine, complete with artifacts
(whiteboards, easels) and assistants (who try to write down everything)
supporting the process. The details are fascinating, and encouraging for all
others who need to write collaboratively, quickly, in a way that fits a larger
blueprint; you may want to check them out here: http://www.quora.com/When-writing-a-television-episode-how-do-professional-screenwriters-and-TV-writers-go-about-breaking-an-episodes-story/
