Abstract :
The creation of stories by a computer system that are able to entertain and catch the reader´s attention is an even more complex task. This paper presents a written storytelling system that selects and chronologically orders events from a database to produce stories to arouse three different feelings on readers: suspense surprise and curiosity. To achieve this goal, concepts of the Structural-Affect Theory of Stories [3] were used.
