Your narrative, setting, and characters are only limited by your imagination! You may create your narrative in (almost) any format you would like including:

• short story or novelette
• short film
• graphic novel or comic
• visual art
• strategy-based card game

NO POWERPOINTS/PREZIS/GOOGLE SLIDES/KEYNOTES!!!!
