Abstract:

In this paper, we discuss the hypothetical nature of authoring
Interactive Digital Narratives (IDNs) and the formal authorial
process for this medium. We explore the current state-of-the-Art
in IDN authorial approaches and consider the perspective of a
traditional and technologically naïve author. We propose a
combination of meta-narrative and autonomous agent approaches
in a quest to democratize IDN authoring to a wider, less
technically oriented audience. In doing so, we ask fundamental
questions with regards to how the user experience can be
expressed within the authorial process. We also, as part of this
discussion, reflect on the nature of authoring IDNs and the author
him/herself.
