Threading Facts into a Collective Narrative World

The paper presents a framework that allows the collection of multiple story fragments from several sources and/or authors, in the context of social networks, where story fragments tell facts about items that are ontologically modeled in the system. The framework provides tools for threading facts together into stories; by doing so, it shapes a new narratological model, that mixes emergent narrative and authored approaches, and that can be defined as "collective".
