Welcome to the Digital Fiction International Network wiki
This wiki is designed to support the collaborations between the six participants of the Digital Fiction International Network (funded by The Leverhulme Trust between January and December 2009).
This wiki is also designed to profile our work and support research in the field of digital fiction research. As a group, we offer methodological approaches to and analyses of digital fiction.
But what do we mean by 'digital fiction'? According to our DeFINition, we mean:
fiction that is written for and read on a computer screen, that pursues its verbal, discursive and/or conceptual complexity through the digital medium, and would lose something of its aesthetic and semiotic function if it were removed from that medium.
To see how we got to this DeFINition, take a look at our discussion. To find out more about us and our project, please explore the site using the links below.
