All you've got to do is form a word from a word posted by someone earlier, and post a word yourself for the next person to form a word from that, who will post a word themselves, and so on. You can write phrases too, if you like.

Ready? Let's begin!
1) Pigwidgeon

Do you mean find an anagram of the previous word, or can you just take some of the letters? Could you give an example?

Some of the letters are fine!
Like from Pigwidgeon - nip, pin, dew, pigeon, wig, dig, pig

You can also rearrange all the letters to get another word.

Next one's 'silent.'

site, sine, stile, enlist, list, tile(s), tinsel, lien, tin(s), lint, inset, lei(s), inlet(s), tine(s), slit... I know there are a bunch more.

And my fave, considering the main word was 'silent' - listen.

Next word is: jeroboam
