Developing a Choice-Based Digital Fiction for Body Image Bibliotherapy
Body dissatisfaction is so common in the western world that it has become the norm, especially among women and girls. Writing New Body Worlds is a transdisciplinary research-creation project that aims to address these issues by developing an interactive digital fiction for body image bibliotherapy. It is created with the critical co-design participation of a group of young women and non-binary individuals (aged 18–25) from diverse backgrounds, who are representative of its intended audience. This article discusses how our participant research influenced the creative development of the digital fiction, its characters and its novel ludonarrative or story-game design. It theorizes how the specific affordances of a choice-based interactive narrative, that situates the reader-player in the mind of the fictional protagonist, may lead to enhanced empathic identification and agency and, therefore, a more profoundly immersive and potentially transformative experience.

"These Waves …:" Writing New Bodies for Applied E-literature Studies
N. Katherine Hayles introduced the Electronic Literature concept of second generation hypermedia, characterized by their distinctive, multimodal, en enable by newly evolving, browser-based editing and network technologies vis-a-vis stand-alone, first generation, pre-web hypertext works, which were largely monomodal-verbal and followed a somewhat booking aesthetic.
All the electronic literature generations are overlapping, the co-exist, respond to and feed off one another - similar to, and perhaps as contested as, the so-called waves of feminism.Given the sheer explosion of technological developments, is important that all reach beyond their own disciplinary boundaries and into non-academic communities.
It is focused on the particular case of young woman’s body image, or, more precisely and inclusively, on body image in young, women-identified and gender non-conforming individuals, sawing how girls at six already express body dissatisfaction, provoking high risk for developing eating and body related distresses (Watson, Veale and Saewyc).

Reading Digital Lives Generously
The scale, scope, privacy, ephemerality, and “amateurism” of prevailing modes of digital self-representation pose challenges for scholars seeking to understand these phenomena. In this chapter, we draw on our experiences as researchers and editors to outline methodological approaches that can address these challenges. We advocate for a “generous” critical engagement with digital life narratives that welcomes methods and concepts from other disciplines while reaffirming the ongoing commitment of auto/biography studies to an inclusive view of what counts as a “life” and what signs of life—however transient, fragmentary, and enigmatic—we are willing to learn how to read.
