Write your own Storygame

Writing your own Storygame is time consuming, and can be difficult. Even for authors used to writing linear stories, the added complications of decision points and working in poll results can drive a story far from any original plans.

The best introduction to writing your own is spending some time just playing existing ones for a time. See how existing authors are doing it. When you feel ready (and have lots of ideas) the following links can help you get started. :)
