More fresh meat?

14 years ago

Hullo folks!

Well, I figure it's about time to introduce myself, so here I am. I guess you could say I'm already something of an established writer (I have a minor presence on sites such as Fanfiction.net or Fictionpress.com) but I've never written a CYOA, so I'm looking forward to seeing what I can piece together - and of course perusing the many wonderful pieces others have put forward. I'd also gladly accept any advice any of you may have for me (which would be greatly appreciated!).

Cheers,

-Jack

Hello Jack, welcome to CYS.

Hi Jack! If I were you, I'd start just by reading Ground Zero by Endmaster. I think it exemplifies the structure of an "ideal" CYOA story. I'd also suggest bypassing the classic editor altogether and sticking with the advanced one. Even if you don't use any of the advanced features, the user interface is much butter.

Welcome aboard!

Hello, I would advise reading Innkeeper (I think that's what it's called), Ground Zero, or Eternal from Endmaster to see how close to a normal story you can get while still making it a CYOA
