	<b>Create Your Own Adventure</b> is a wiki that contains stories where the reader assumes the role of the main character. In each page you choose how the story should progress. If you don't see an option that you would like to pursue, click the edit tab on the top of the page and add a new path to the page.

-
-	~~===Tips===~~
-	*Don't give too many options when starting a new story and leave half of them redlinked. Focus on a small number of story threads at first.
-	*Outline a general plan for what the intention of your story is when you start it: What genre and themes it belongs to.
-	*As alternative to plain formatting for your story, you may try using ''Italics'' to write the Narration, regular Font for character Dialogue and '''Bold''' for Character/Item/Location names or important developments. Example: ''As you walked through the'' '''Forest''', ''you heard a young girl calling out for you.'' "Jack! Wait for me! I have a gift for you!" ''Kate runs up to you and gives you the'' '''MacGuffin'''. Whatever style you choose, try to keep it consistent throughout the story.
-	*If you are having difficulty spacing out paragraphs, you can use <nowiki><br></nowiki>, which works as a line-break.
-	*Don't inject crude humor into a story that's intended to be played straight.
-	*Please categorize the pages in your story. For example, if your story is called "The Story", then please add <nowiki>[[Category:The Story]]</nowiki> to each new page you create for your story.
