(I'm kinda glad that Google remembers my login details 'cause I sure as hell don't) Do you have a lot of these short stories? You could make a "Story" that is a collection of these stories with the first chapter being a brief synopsis of the short stories. It would make for a nice digestible...

That's the way I'd see it working. To use the example that gene.sis posted, I'd have a branch where maybe your protagonist gets to check out the dates Facebook while she's in the bathroom or something, and have time to check two out of the three posts. If the date had a childhood pet named...

I like this idea, reminds me of this synopsis: One of these days I'll actually publish something so I can genuinely participate in this thread of self deprecation.

Instead of grapes, they could always be magic berries...

With the dichotomy of being locked down while simultaneously drowning in work (I work admin within the medical field) my creativity is taking a massive hit. Not nearly enough writing or playing the violin/guitar.

(wow so many posts since my last visit) I kind of like the idea of having some personality traits as a feat or flaw. If your game mode has a horny-meter mechanic and you assign a character trait as "Feisty", maybe getting into arguments gets them hot more than just under the collar. It's...

Somewhere in here is one of the pitfalls that I want to try and avoid in my stories.

It sounds like you're almost looking for a private forum thread. I wonder if there's a way to tie a forum thread to the author list of a certain story (or stories)...

I like it. I think that personality and character traits are an area worth exploring. It's not so much that I deprioritize them, but it's quite difficult to define them in a way that is universally relevant. For instance, breast size is a very subjective attribute – what you might consider a...

I've been trying to think of ways to flavour writing with conditional text. For instance, if you had a Body Type hidden variable that had a value of 1 if the reader if they wanted an athletic love interest or a value of 2 if a voluptuous one: You caress her {if Body Type = 1}toned {elseif Body...

My initial idea was to have characters with default attributes, then have a Dramatis Personae page where the reader can change things if they choose to. I know basic things like skin and eye colour might not come up very much, but I thought they might be helpful for immersion. Immersion, or...

If you were able to customize/customise a character in a CHYOA story, how would you like to be able to do so and would there be any difference between male/female characters? From an author's perspective, the idea is to use IF statements to input the reader's choice (so "red hair" might be...

Steel, you say? I wouldn't take it to heart if some of your writing is cliché (something we're all guilty of (hell, memes are essentially cliché)). There is nothing new under the sun, and sometimes... ...sometimes you've just got to head them off at the pass.

I get this horrible feeling that most of my posts are replies saying "Yeah, that should be okay" and gene.sis going:
