where i wanted goodgeyes to be a team effort to co-create a story of hope
strugglethru is my lone effort to tell a similar story
one geyes struggle to start to communicate this real possible hope story
i have been searching for years for a simpler way to create stories
strugglethru is not just my story
but also an example structure/format for how to create a better story
its key innovation is its nonlinear structure
don't write a story with a beginning, middle & end
instead write it as if a tree with many branches
and branches that touch (& loop back) to other branches
very nonlinear for both the creator & the story experiencer
i'm currently testing the basic design structure
just the chapters, words & navigation options
just the form & formats
i'm not dealing with look & feel yet
but i do have someone interested in working with me more in the area
graphics, images, color, etc. can do a lot to help spice up the experience of these words
hopefully coming soon
