Hypertext Fiction is a genre of interactive literature that uses hypertext links to direct the reader into sometimes complex, passages throughout the story. These hypertext links can also lead the reader to analogous images. Some hypertext fiction stories are scripted in a fashion that the reader can have a different encounter each time the story is read. The reader selects a link to explore, each time, creating a new experience. The reader will not not follow a continuous path, but will experience the story like one trying to solve a puzzle or follow a map.

Hypertext Fiction began circulating in the late 1980’s by floppy disk through a small community of writers.
