Today’s a day for Patchwork Girl, and perhaps Afternoon – A Story; hyperfiction to wander in while grounded inside.
I’ve been in Michael Joyce’s Afternoon before, but not very far and not really inside the story. It is hypertext in a simple form (whatever is considered simple for hypertext when one thinks about the work involved that goes far beyond story), while Shelley Jackson’s Patchwork Girl appears more complex while showing the reader the maps and indeed, a glimpse into the base of the Storyspace format.
My thanks to Mark Bernstein for setting me back on track.
Do you ever walk out under the sun? Just curious.
Mark, evidently you havent been keeping up; check four posts down as proof that I’ve been outside.
Unless you meant just walking–not working. No. I don’t not work.
Four posts down is like traversing James Joyce.
