Now The Crawl 140 characters at a time

10/06/19

I've been working on The Crawl for a while. We went back to look at it, and I was very underwhelmed. What to do with a bland CYOA when your intention is get it done quickly, keep it interesting and not spend a lot of time on theme, device, symbol, etc?

Make every entry 140 characters or less! It forces a level of focus and drive upon the narrative. Also, harking back to a comment I made a while back, it reduces the load on people like me who read slowly.

Already, the new constraint drives us even further beyond our initial 20 entry limit (we were already over). But those entries or notes that provide imagery and context can be moved to the side, optional for those who wish to read them.

Color coding notes that fell in certain word counts led to this post.
