>What is a quest?
An interactive story in which the QM (Quest Master, Quester Molester, Queer Masochist) writes and provides the readers with options on how to proceed. Dice may or may not be included due to on-site functionality.

Questionably Useful links:

>https://pastebin.com/Z78p8gXf
A collection of guides which may or may not still be active, but can be good for general writing advice to avoid common beginner's traps. Badly in need of renovation.

>Archive of quest reviews: http://pastebin.com/u/QuestReviewsArchive
Worth reading through, because the best way to figure out how a quest might go right or wrong is to see how it's been done before.

>QM Question:
When it comes to write antagonists do you enjoy it? Do you like to keep things straightforward, or do you like a more nuanced 'villain'? Either way, how do you make your antagonists compelling?

>Player Question:
Who was your favorite quest antagonist to read? What made them the best? In general, do you prefer outright evil antagonists, or ones coming from a more understandable place?

>General Question:
What was your favorite confrontation to read/write in questing? What about just in recent questing? It doesn't have to be a fight, just any clash of characters, or even an internal conflict.

>Misc. Question:
Do you have a favorite antagonist who later joined the protagonist's side or vice-versa? What are your thoughts on anti-heroes or anti-villains in general? Do you think they've become over done?

>True Believer Question:
What's your favorite meal for Lent? Do you give something up every year? If so, what are you giving up this year?

>Lurker Question:
There is no question. Vote. Why aren't you voting yet?
