© C. Warren Fans take interactivity beyond the game. Will you be there to meet them?

© C. Warren We hold these truths to be self-evident Story is important Interacting with gamers goes beyond game play A conversation is a type of interactivity

© C. Warren Will there be a Nobel Prize for game stories?

© C. Warren “The story was the bushman’s most sacred possession. These people knew what we do not; that without a story you have not got a nation, or culture or civilization. Without a story of your own to live, you haven’t got a life of your own.” -- L. Van der Post, The Lost World of the Kalahari

© C. Warren Fan Question: “I have written a script for my favorite game. Where can I send it?” Corporate Answer: “Keep on writing.....the more you write the better you will get !! But... ALL unsolicited ideas and scripts are left unopened and are THROWN AWAY. This is for YOUR protection.”

People who critique and people who create One expert estimates that 98% of fanfiction is written by women The New York Times calls fan-written criticism “electronic tough love” Who are these people?

© C. Warren Fans: Outsiders or Insiders?

“If someone had told me when I was growing up in New York City that someday people would win tens of thousands of dollars, automobiles, and other prizes from being good at games I’d have told them to double up on their medication.” -- Angel Munoz Cyberathlete Professional League Founder & President

© C. Warren Fun & games… or games sweatshop?
