Abstract

[The process of authoring an interactive digital narrative has been one of the main issues in our field of studies. Throughout the historyHistory of the field, considerable attention has been given to the development and usage of authoring tools, very often disregarding the authoring process as a creative activity. In this chapter, we transcend the discussion around authoring tools, to delve into several modelsModels that describe the authoring process of different kinds of interactive digital narrative artifacts from ideationIdeationto publishingPublishing, identifying common practices across them. Subsequently, we propose an iterative and inclusive authoring process that is open to any formForm of interactive digital narrative artifact. The process consists of four stages: ideationIdeation, pre-productionPre-Production, production, and post-productionPost-Production. Finally, we discuss our thoughts on the understanding and acknowledgment of the interactive digital narratives’ creator\"Author, The\"creator and their roleRole.]
