    This thesis describes a practice as research project which sought to create a multi path narrative output which contained multiple story shapes. It engages with the concept of narrative structure and story shape as discussed in literature on playwrighting and interactive storytelling while citing examples of multi narrative plays. The project resulted in two outputs which were created using Twine, a piece of interactive narrative software. In the thesis, I describe the process of creating the work, citing examples from the outputs, and present how the use of diagrams played an important role in visualising the multi path structure. I reflect on how working with Twine altered my process and describe how my engagement with the concepts of interactivity, interruption and story as functions modified my approach to writing and affected my practice
