At the Poole Lit Fest this weekend (Oct 30/31) I ran four digital wrting workshops for the public in which we talked about interactive writing, and people tried out Genarrator. The software works really well - thanks to Jim ready and Tom Gooday for the technical expertise and skill.
People who came to the workshops obviously found the software easy to use and I'm looking forward to seeing work appear on the homepage.
I'm also now using Genarrator in my undergrad teaching - final year students on our BAComms and Media are making interactive narratives with Genarrator.
It's beginning to feel exciting, and I believe that software like this, which is easy to use and free to access, is one way to expand interactive storytelling into a much wider community.
Look at the Genarrator site if you want to see some early pieces: http://genarrator.cemp.ac.uk/
