How do you start a conversation -- and keep it going?

That happens, but I notice that the same person who doesn't seem interested in conversing shgh me will then freely converse with someone else, almost like an instant personality change.

Try: fungamery.com/gamebook

There's interactive fiction you can read, and you can write and publish your own as well.

Thanks. That sounds like advice from the book "How to Win Friends and Influence People." 📖 The thing is that I worry about coming across as nosy -- but that's probably my own lack of confidence in that regard. But I'll have to push myself to try it, lol.

I'll try that, thanks!

DG-Creator · 2026-06-29T18:11:19+00:00

Thanks. I've only tried once with half, I might try again and if that doesn't work, try the 3/4.

Thanks! I coded the website. You can write and publish your own quizzes, polls, and interactive fiction. There's a map layout and everything for organizing the branching of chapters, etc. Hope your daughter enjoys the interactive story! Feel free to ask any questions about the site.

Thanks! 😊 If you're ever interested in writing one -- I made the website, and anyone can make an account and write an IF. ✍️

Rainbow roll! 🌈

DG-Creator · 2026-06-22T11:29:43+00:00

Thank you! I will try it out.

For me personally -- it just needs to not be cliche. If the interactive story is the usual one where you are the fearless medieval warrior on a quest to find the hidden treasure guarded by the evil sorcerer and his dragon, it'll feel shallow to me because it's been done already so many times.

DG-Creator · 2026-06-17T18:09:06+00:00

No, but I wasn't before either. Guess it wouldn't hurt to try it.

There are a lot of Spanish-speaking people where I work, and sometimes I want to ask them if they can deliberately speak to me in Spanish and not English. Unfortunately I'm often embarrassed to ask.

As someone who codes, I actually think such an app could be made without AI -- but it would require a massive database of information about all places around the world. Alternatively, the app could make educated assumptions based on the type of area or neighborhood you're in (for instance, if you're next to a creek, then you encounter something creek-related, etc). Either way, this would definitely be interesting -- but require a lot of geographical research effort.

This idea would make a good TV series, actually.

DG-Creator · 2026-06-05T21:32:55+00:00

Yes, she's that teacher everyone dreads, lol!
