Choose Your Own Adventure stories, exclusively for Steemit!

in #writing9 years ago (edited)

Confused? Don't be. This isn't one of my projects. Rather, I'm looking to provide wider exposure for the hard work my talented friend @noelletwine has been putting into her Choose Your Own Adventure stories lately.

I don't have to ask if you remember CYOA books from your childhood, everybody does. You'll start reading for the novelty and nostalgia, but keep reading because @noelletwine actually is a remarkably talented author who just needs a bit of help to get noticed.

She has published four such stories so far. The first is The Interview, in which you're being interrogated amidst the military invasion of a city and must make correct decisions to escape with your life.

The second is titled The Salamander, an outrageously charming dark fantasy tale of a child who is pulled into another world populated by giant talking frogs and salamanders, who then must navigate this world and choose her allegiance carefully in order to survive. (Of the four listed here, this is my favorite, with The Deathlands a close second.)

The third is titled The Party. In this tale from antiquity, you're a house cat at a fancy party who must save the life of your dear friend. How many CYOA stories have you read in which you're a cat? I thought as much!

@noelletwine's most recent and ambitious CYOA tale is The Deathlands, a fantasy adventure which starts out cute and engrossing but quickly becomes a harrowing fight for life against terrifying monsters. Do you have what it takes to save your tribe from giant insects? Do you? WELL DO YOU?? >:0

If you're searching for something a little bit different from the usual short fiction you've encountered on this site, and you demand quality prose, look no further. This is an itch you didn't even know you needed scratched, and @noelletwine is surely the one to scratch it. Waste no more time reading this! None! Off with you, go embark upon a variety of short but captivating adventures from the comfort of your computer chair! :)

You are awesome to highlight another steemer @alexbeyman! I will surely be checking out @noelletwine's CYOA tales. Talk about nostalgic!

I owned a lot of books like that in my youth. I especially bought all of them put out by TSR.

I just got a letter in the mail. Let me look and see what it says. Oh, "ALEXBEYMAN IS THE BEES' KNEES AND THE CAT'S PAJAMAS." Well I already knew that. They didn't have to send a letter about that.

Next we meet, it shall be I who is buyer of coffee. Also I have a leetle present for you but that is actually nothing to do with this post.
