T<\/span>he Dumpster<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"39thedumpster\"<\/a>Steve’s story<\/a> today was a wonderfully touching tale of a child’s love for his father who decides to take off in a dirigible and the most obvious element of the story for me was the twist.<\/p>\n

I can’t compete with that.<\/p>\n

But what I picked up was a family situation and decided to play with the hypertext linking as an exercise for today’s work. What I’ve tried to do is keep track of the actions of each of four family members in reaction to a single proposed event. The conflict within each of the four characters is then resolved in what they think is a way, which in fact turns out to be the result only of one of the characters.<\/p>\n

And for fun, I threw in an invisible gorilla.<\/p>\n

I’ve also tried a different method of ‘transitional” linking by naming names–in other words, there are links to boxes of one or more of the characters that will bring the reader back into that thread.\u00a0 Though it’s perfectly acceptable to follow through with each character to the end, it’s probably more fun to keep up with each of them individually and that’s just what this method of linking allows.\u00a0 It looks a lot more complicated than it is; I’ve gone through switching around between characters and still found generally satisfying stories. I intend to try this method a few more times in the future to see if it can be even more smoothly arranged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
