I've seen lots of good stories in the prose - err, Creativity tab. From short stories to lengthy epics, all were plotted out and manipulated by the very authors. I'm not saying that controlling your story is a bad thing, after all, it is your property, and it is your right to tell it as you want. I'm saying that there could be more than just you making the story flow. That you could involve others in developing this story of yours.
Of course, many would say, "then simply make a group roleplay", but that is not what I am talking about here. I am talking about how the readers can interact with the story you are telling. How they can be a part of this fiction written by you, and only you.
What if, there was a story where the readers affect how and where it goes, through a choice system - like a visual novel, or a make-your-own-adventure books. Where every choice leads to a different outcome, and every outcome leads to a different route. A story where the readers are truly immersed, for their very voices will affect the story.
The idea is, to make a story where the readers could vote on what should happen next. However, with a previous experience of mine, I've proven than the poll system would be an ineffective way to pull this off, mainly due to it being immune to deletion once a vote has gone in. Editing the choices is also disabled once a vote has been done. Thus, only one range of choices can be truly achieved. So, that leaves me to relying on other means such as click monitoring websites, voting sites, etc. Should you know anything that might help me make such an idea a success, then please let me know.
Now, the question is, would anyone be interested in attempting to create something like this? Or even read it?
