Create Your Own Story
Introduction
Create Your Own Story is a wiki that contains stories where the reader assumes the role of the main character. In each page, you make a choice that decides how the story should progress. If you don't see an option that you would like to pursue, click the Edit Tab on the top of the page and add a new path to the page then write in your own story for the character.
Please note that this site is specifically for Create Your Own Stories with the ability to select from different choices. If you decide to post a story that has no choices, your story will be deleted as such stories are not appropriate.
We currently have 123,441 articles.
If you're new to this site, please read our Tutorial to learn how to edit stories. Please do not add new stories to the Main Page. Add new stories to the sub-pages for each story type below. New stories added to the Main Page will be removed from the Main Page post haste.
- Hint: If you don't care enough about your writing to attempt to use proper grammar or spelling, chances are that people won't care to read it. If grammar isn't your strong suit, you may want to look over some Grammatical Tips.
If you want to practice editing, you should do so on the Sandbox.
P.S. To those looking for the adult stories, they are at the bottom of the page, past the warning, so as to prevent any incidental stumbling into adult content and to keep the site reasonably appropriate for all ages.
Got an Idea for a Story?
Go ahead and start it! If you don't have the time or skills to write your idea down, feel free to post the idea down or ask BloodshedPrince (not recommended as his last contribution was October of 2015 and before that August of 2014) and Fredhot16. Don't let that little spark fade, share it with the world!
To Do List
- Go through and fix or remove status indicators from pages.
- Some are not needed in stories and were copied and pasted from the template.
- Some are missing the level and MP from the line of code.
- Remove off-topic pages.
- Correct capitalization and spelling mistakes.
- Add a basic, or main, timeline of background events during the period that the character is making choices in - those events are usually out of the character's control. This will help add consistency.
- Pages with major spelling, grammar or other problems, but not problems that render the page spam and a candidate for deletion, should be categorized in the Pages Requiring Attention Category to get other editors to help fix it up. If a page is not yet complete, add it to Category:Pages Under Construction so people know the editor is still working on it and it does not need to have someone improve it.
- Story Endings should be categorized with Category:Endings.
- Erase red links or fill them with the required content.
The Review/Story Reviews
Look under Story Reviews or The Review for reviews of existing stories or to add your own reviews. Story Reviews is abandoned, so not updated, and The Review is still new though, so don't expect your favorite story to be reviewed just yet. Try to stick to constructive criticism only. Deliberate insults or flaming will be deleted.
If you have any questions concerning this section, or you want a certain story to be reviewed, don't be afraid and ask DirtyMeStoryTime. Please wait before adding reviews to The Review for me to set up.

Tips
- Don't give too many options when starting a new story and leave half of them redlinked. Focus on a small number of story threads at first.
- Outline a general plan for what the intention of your story is when you start it, what genre it belongs to and what themes it has.
- As alternative to plain formatting for your story, you may try using Italics to write the Narration, regular Font for character Dialogue and Bold for Character/Item/Location names or important developments. Example: As you walked through the Forest, you heard a young girl calling out for you. "Jack! Wait for me! I have a gift for you!" Kate runs up to you and gives you the MacGuffin. Whatever style you choose, try to keep it consistent throughout the story.
- If you are having difficulty spacing out paragraphs, you can use <br>, which works as a line-break.
- Don't inject crude humor into a story that's intended to be played straight.
- Characterization of the protagonist, whatever he or she receives, should be consistent from choice to choice. If the protagonist chooses to kill someone and feels a great amount of guilt and regret over it, do not put in a choice where he/she later brags about killing that person unless there is some internal or external justification for it.
- If you are writing in another franchise like Dungeons and Dragons or Star Wars, please do some basic research on the setting.
- Please categorize the pages in your story. For example, if your story is called "The Story", then please add [[Category:The Story]] to each new page you create for your story.
