Hypertext and Creative Writing This was the first public
presentation of the Storyspace hypertext authoring software,
which became extremely important in hypertext fiction in the
early 1990s. The abstract reads: "Among its many uses, hypertext
can serve as a medium for a new kind of flexible, interactive
fiction. Storyspace™ is a hypertext system we have created for
authoring and reading such fiction. Interactive fiction in the
computer medium is a continuation of the modern “tradition” of
experimental literature in print. However, the computer frees
both author and reader from restrictions imposed by the printed
medium and therefore allows new experiments in literary
structure." Critical writing that references this
