Twine heavily encourages you to think of a page as a dynamic interactive space, not just a sequence of prose followed by choices. Twine encourages you to place links and interactive elements in the midst of prose, not just at the end, and to use them to change the prose in surprising and unusual ways – inserting or removing text in a previously-read paragraph, changing the styling of words, changing just the link itself, and other such effects to reveal new meaning in the text and communicate your story in a manner unique to hypertext.*
Twine offers all sorts of potential. It took me a while to get to grips with this thing. It seemed to offer a way of not just writing and structuring, but learning about, the writing of texts. What sort of texts? Anything from poems to novels to non-fiction to essays to artworks to verse novels to crazy mixed up experiments. Anything.
