Congratulations, by the way. I don't know how the actual story is chosen, but I do know that chapter depth and frequency of updates plays a big...
This is actually a real writing technique called in media res. It's when a story starts not at the beginning, but at the first exciting scene (for...
The writing you have posted is totally correct. In the case of that sentence you re-wrote, the tense isn't quite changing. The original sentence...
In short, yes. In long, the issue is so nuanced that you would probably need to post a passage from your work to this thread in order for anyone...
Notepad and Google.
You can decide what tense you're using, i.e. present or past, for yourself. Your writing should only sound 'wrong' if your tense changes without...
It may be because third person is the most common POV, so in many cases it could be the only one the author has actually heard of. But it's not a...
Sorry, but I doubt you'll find anyone here willing to write for you. People just write for themselves or their audience. Unless, of course, you're...

The way I see it, if you're coordinating enough, a collaboration is no different to just one author. And thank you for the suggestions. I'll add...
I thought it'd be interesting to try and identify patterns in the structures of CHYOA stories. Authors go about writing in different ways, and...
 This is the code to implement images. The image will need to be uploaded online eg on Imgur, and the address will...
^ This. Imply that the character is looking at something; you don't need to state it. For instance, "Tom looked at Anne's full breasts," could be...
The story I'm (gradually) working on is fully planned out and will be complete with multiple options at every step and all endings. I'm making...
