The early books were so much fun... I bought each as they were published. I still remember titles like "The Mystery of Chimney Rock" & "By Balloon to the Sahara".

Can't get enough of the Finish It! podcast. It's about Choose Your Own Adventure books, and the effort put in to music and preparation is very impressive.

After a few months of inactivity on my blog (which has happened before), I have written a medium-sized article about how the term "interactive fiction" has changed over the years.

I have finally published House Only You Remember - an interactive horror story where you are trapped in a strange house. Will you be able to save your friends? What ending will you get? What is the mystery behind the house and how is your family connected to it? Available on Amazon. #cyoa #gamebook
Aside from #CYOA or MUD type use, another potential I see is as a #WebSerial or #Webnovel platform.
Think FictionPress.net, Naver Wattpad, Kindle Vella, and similar.
Dan opened a very wide door for ATmosphere network. Time for a new service catering for lit publishing and communities. 😁

Haha… I tried to create a #CYOA trail but it didn't work.
sidetrail.app/@youronly.on...
It would be interesting if we can have multiple buttons that links to another trail.
I mean, I see potential for this as a short form platform for interconnected stories.

Adding another used #ChooseYourOwnAdventure to the shelf: Chinese Dragons.
Originally #109 (Bantam, 1991), later #30 in the 2009 Chooseco reissue.
Like many late-run titles from the original series, it’s light on endings: just 11 paths to wrap things up. 🤷🏼♂️ #CYOA #Gamebooks
A “Choose Your Own Adventure” story is HARD — and I’ll tell you why.
It’s not all fun twists and unexpected demises — it’s a LOT of work … AND fun ….

A “Choose Your Own Adventure” ...
I love that a 1986 #ChooseYourOwnAdventure book noted that Christopher Columbus was a slimeball.

Adapting a visual novel's #artbook into a #CYOA story is truly the most incredible use of both mediums I have ever seen.
The coolest approach possible, wishing Black Tabby Games all the best with their projects🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The Art Of Slay The Princess B...
Сторонник свободного программного обеспечения, свободного интернета и распределённых сетей. За минимальное вмешательство государства в жизнь граждан (но не либертарианство), легализацию проституции, порнографии и добровольного рабства (да #bdsm тоже входит в список моих интересов) и свободное ношение оружия. Против эвтаназии, смертной казни и легализации наркотиков. Политические взгляды скорее лево-центристские.
Интересуюсь мировой историей ( #история древнего мира, античности и доколумбовой Америки, средневековая история западной и северной Европы и Руси, #культура и история кочевых народов), а также культурой и экономикой стран юго-восточной Азии. Довольно очевидно из всего вышесказанного, что я анимешник, менее очевидно, что ещё я люблю #фильмы, #книги и #сериалы ( #обзоры здесь тоже будут), настольные ролевые ( #dnd #pathfinder #cyoa ) и компьютерные #игры.
Также планирую использовать присутствие здесь для тренировки и изучения иностранных языков.
