1. Reclaiming the 'Golden Age': The Second Person in Digital Fiction

   Since the demise of the 'Golden Age' of literary hypertext (Coover 1999) and the theoretical debates surrounding online and offline electronic literature that followed in its wake, the study of digital fiction in particular has undergone a significant paradigm shift. Recent research has moved from a 'first-wave' of pure theoretical debate to a 'second-wave' of close stylistic and semiotic analysis. While the theoretical intricacies of second-wave digital fiction theory have been well debated (e.g. Ciccoricco 2007, Ensslin 2007, Ensslin and Bell 2007, Bell 2010 forthcoming), the discipline and practice of close-reading digital fiction require a more systematic engagement and understanding than offered by previous scholarship.

2. Writing Digital Media

   There has been quite a bit of debate about the relationship between games and fiction, with important discussions in Wardrip-Fruin and Harrigan's First Person, Jesper Juul's Half-Real, Marie-Laure Ryan's Avatars of Story, and others.  In parallel with this, a number of electronic literature authors have been creating games -- or at least playable experiences -- that have as their focus and reward for play an experience of story, such as Mateas and Stern's Facade, Emily Shorts Galatea, and Stuart Moulthrop's Pax.
