Why not an interactive story?

By Some Guy · Jun 6, 2018 · ·
  1. I've frolicked around WF for near of a month. Oddly, I feel a sense of loyalty to the craft, even though I can't call myself a writer. What I wonder now is, how to present my story in the 21st century?
    Fearful of writing, I imagined a interactive story that would evolve in a framework of my making. Now I discover flash fiction, short shorts, novella series, and I'm thinking 'why not?' at this point. It would be cool to build-on-the-flea and let it run domesticated. But how. Bloggification seems limited, but that might be a good thing. I thought about YT, but have no idea what I would do for structure. It could be voice narrated, maybe with stick-man post-it note comics. Use comments for interaction? IDK

    Being a story about a Tyrant, I would obviously run it like a tyrant: be a positive contributor or get shot out of my world like a grape seed... But how to present?
    It almost lends itself to role-play, contribute a cool healthcare idea, you're the new Minister of Health... hire em, fire em, things go well, things go wrong, things go right!
    I'd love to challenge people to take on a real issue, or be challenged...
    It would be awesome to set up a mini administration, advisors, ministers, jurists... create a little reality!

    Give it a shot!

    But, it sounds to me like a mess. I don't know how I'd manage being able to tell a story with the litany of dimwitted contributions you're likely to get. And, I know that sounds shitty of me, but the majority of suggestions I get for my work don't apply to my vision.
