The following text comes from the foreword to a book:
"My daughter Rachel created the story to the right to help articulate in pictures what the problem is with presentations today."
I do not know what story is meant here.
There is no story to the right side of the text.
Is it directed to the right people then?

For creative writing today, we wrote a tandem story. Actually four tandem stories.
Tandem means “a group of two or more arranged one behind the other.” Thus a tandem story is one that someone starts then passes off to someone else to continue. You can go back and forth in partners, but the four of us – Jacob, Alexandra, Larissa and I – sat in a circle around a table and passed the story to the right. We had 10 minutes to write (I set a timer), then wherever we were in the story, we had to pass it off. Each time we got a story, we read the story from the beginning, then continued adding to it for another 10 minutes. We did this four times. That fourth and last person had to end the story. No one got any story more than once and had no control over where the story went next.
