According to its website twinery.org<\/a>, Twine is \u201can open-source tool for telling interactive, nonlinear stories.\u201d However, as Twine\u2019s creator Chris Klimas says, \u201cyou can also make things that nobody can quite pin down.\u201d He admonishes potential Twine writers, \u201cplease make strange things with Twine.\u201d Inspired by Klimas\u2019 request, this workshop explores Twine as an eccentric tool for more personal kinds of writing, such as journaling, scrapbooking, note-taking, or letter writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this session, we will first introduce Twine for new users, providing basic instructions for getting started. We will then work through a series of prompted writing exercises designed to highlight the ways that Twine can be used as a hypertext notebook for \u2018scribbling,\u2019 for jotting down your thoughts, recording a diary entry, or for sending a note to somebody you care about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeremy Andriano (he\/him) recently completed a Master of Arts in the joint graduate program in Communication and Culture at Toronto Metropolitan University and York University. His thesis research explored ways that digital tools such as Twine and Ink\/Inky can be used to introduce hypertext writing in traditional creative writing workshop settings. He has an undergraduate degree in English, Honours (TMU 2023), is a frequent contributor to the<\/em> Unarchived Podcast, and has taught multiple workshops on Ink\/Inky for the Electronic Literature Organization. He is the author of<\/em> Creating Playable Stories with Ink and Inky<\/a> (2023).<\/p>\n\n\n
