DeadFishV here. I'm sort of new to this, but I've got the desire to be creative. And a site like this is an excellent creative writing exercise. In time I hope to start my own story on here. In life, I live with and take care of my quadriplegic girlfriend, who also enjoys being creative. We have our own YouTube channel, [http://www.youtube.com/user/DeadFishVlogs DeadFishVlogs], which is more about her and being a quad and less about me, who can't stand to hear himself on camera. | DeadFishV here.

A Little Bit About Me
DeadFishV here. I'm sort of new to this, but I've got the desire to be creative. And a site like this is an excellent creative writing exercise. In time I hope to start my own story on here. In life, I live with and take care of my quadriplegic girlfriend, who also enjoys being creative. We have our own YouTube channel, DeadFishVlogs, which is more about her and being a quad and less about me, who can't stand to hear himself on camera.
CLUSTERFUCK
My idea for a good CYOA story is one that gives a lot of choices. Most of the ones I've read only give about two or three choices per page. And as I've contributed to other people's stories, I feel like I have to conform to the norm, when instead giving a user many option could translate to a better experience. I understand that too many options can overwhelm some users, but I only intend to have a minimum of 5 and maximum of 7 options.
The Rules I Intend To Have:
- Minimum of 5 options
- Maximum of 7 options
- Must be "Real World Fiction" (fiction that can actually happen)
- Violence and Sex must be reasonable. Not every person is willing to have sex and violence can't be over-the-top.
- Characters cannot God-Mode... can't always steal a cops gun when you get confronted
- No character should ever completely Dead-End
- No two characters' lives should intersect
