In this introduction I'll try to explain to you how I've made this work about "The Lumnous Dome", a short sory, which is written by Stephen Linhart.
     In the index you will find the first paper link where you will read all my purposes about this
     hypertext. There, you will find all about the space, time and characters.
     You also find bibliography with some web pages to know more information about
     Stephen and a lot of kind of different hypertext stories and, to sum up, you have the conclusion where I talk about all I've read and worked, it is like a personal opinion.
    This hypertext has 82 fragments and more than 130 links. All these fragments have relation although you don't realize it if you read this story from top to botton and from botton to top. You must follow the links that the author gives you. He sows you different ways to read you don't have to read it in order because it is not a one-way story.

Stephen is the author of this hypertext, he is programmer too. He makes possible to create interactive stories.
He explain in this page http://www.stephen.com/button/luminous.html#66 and http://www.stephen.com/ a software which is made on a platform we can't access.
Here we can't see correctly this hypertext due to we haven't got this kind of program.
It is an interactive hypertext if you have instaled it.
He gives us a tool where you can take part in the story, you can write anything about the play and can be co-author too.

Here the author explains  how and where this hypertext was created:

The Luminous Dome was created with ButtonTalk(tm), a tool that
 lets writers create interactive text. It's easy to learn and easy to use.

 You can find ButtonTalk on many online services and FTP sites that
 carry Macintosh software. It's free for personal use.

WORK IN PROGRESS

 This is a work in progress, and you've reached an unfinished
 section.

 So far, I've written only about 4,000 words of a short 30,000
 word piece. I expect the equivalent of a novel in this format might
 be about twice as many words as a traditional novel.

 At this point, still trying to explore and demonstrate some of my
 ideas about interactive fiction in general, and about ButtonTalk in
 particular.
 
 

The story is situated in a enchanted place where there is a long and circular river with a big
       luminouse dome on the top. Behind the river there is a large garden with trees, flowers and
       different criatures. It is a strange place where you can't find where is the begin and where is
      the end of the way you choose. You can find a lot of ways to walk and all of them bring you
      the same place, although changed, because all is enchanted. Everything remenber you mortal
       things because in this place nothing is mortal. When you enter in this world you experiment a lot of
       allutinations, that's way you think is not real, but is nice and relaxing although there are times
                                        you can be afraid.
