So, what is this new Blog about?
Recently, I had this crazy idea of a story, that is influenced by the readers (Yes, i knew, its not that new, there are things like that out there). That idea came to me after i discovered a new, unusual genre. Its a story, where a person become a living dungeon. Yes, thats right, A DUNGEON! I got heavily inspired by the view stories that i find in this direction and wanted to try, to be a dungeon for a while too. (Can you guess what game i loved to play as a teenager? ^^ )
This is all an experiment to me, in which I plan to have the readers be involved in the progress.
How i want to do that, you ask? Well i have view Ideas...
First, you may have noticed, that there is already a poll on this page. I would like you to vote, in which direction the story should evolve. You will alway have a view days, before i start writing the next chapter. Further, as there will be new Individuals introduced, I will give you the opportunity to claim them (One person per reader). This will give you some freedom to give them a proper personality, by writing their story or their ambitions. They will probably get some individual choices, which you can then decide for them. And of course u may leave your Ideas for further story-twists, new characters(For a smooth story-progression, i still take the right to ignore your input, if it is to obscure, or simply does not fit the Character/plot/world/etc.)
This is (like i said) an experiment to me, maybe a very short lived one, depending on how it evolves and there is a possibility, that it will fail dramatically!
For this project i decided for a different approach, then in my other story, "Paradigm". First, i will write it directly in English, instead of writing it in German and translating it later. Since English is not my native language, be prepared for a lot of mistakes that I will make in terms of grammar. The second thing is, instead of taking my time to introduce the characters properly, their relationship to each other, how the world functions, and so on, i decided to jump right in to action. Now it depends on you to fill the holes.
To make that clear, i did "not" abandon paradigm, i just need to get my mind on something else for a while. I will probably be still translating the remaining German chapters, depending on my time and motivation.
So what do you think of that idea, would you like to follow a story like that? Would you like to claim a character and influence their fate? Leave a note with your thoughts.
With the Prologue here, i kicked a stone down the cliff, now where do you want it roll?
