A Different Way Of Storytelling — Choose Your Own Adventure
If you’re a writer looking to broaden your horizons, you might want to start writing interactive journeys that will put your reader in the driver’s seat!
Novels, short stories, poetry — after a while, it can seem like you’re writing the same old things over and over and over again.
