I've collaborated on some joint boxes (2 with Princess Lea). I mostly helped
create clues, because it can be hard coordinating schedules to plant, etc. I
figure that since I didn't plant it, I don't count it. In fact, I like
creating clues and carving WAY over planting, as a couple of boxes that were
never planted can attest to.

Another fun, equally joint venture, that can be coordinated with 2
independent plantings (and earn separate P counts, of course) are paired
boxes, like Mimulus and I did recently for the Wine Country series. My
"Sleep, Drunken Bacchus" speaks to Mim's "Embittered Demeter" in an odd,
fun, conversational sort of way - each box stands alone, but coordinates
with the other. You just can't mix Greek gods with Roman gods without some
wine nearby, you know. We did a LOT of planning out details through e-mails.
