The first hypertext fictions were published prior to the development of the World Wide Web, using software such as Storyspace and Hypercard. Michael Joyce 's '' Afternoon, A Story '' is generally considered the first hypertext fiction. This was followed by a series of other ''Storyspace'' hypertext fictions, including Stuart Moulthrop 's ''Victory Garden'', Shelley Jackson 's '' Patchwork Girl '' and Deena Larsen's ''Marble Springs''. . The term can also be used to describe traditionally-published books in which a non-linear and interactive narrative is achieved through internal references. Vladimir Nabokov 's '' Pale Fire '' (1962) and Julio Cortázar 's '' Rayuela '' (1963; translated as ''Hopscotch'') are early examples (predating the word '' Hypertext ''), while a common pop-culture example is the " Choose Your Own Adventure " format of young adult fiction.
