Proceed to Section Z

by Marcos Donnelly

Overview

By Ted Wenskus and Marcos Donnelly.

"Proceed to Section Z" is a parody of the old choose-your-own-adventure format popular in paper books of decades past. This short story, the post-apocalyptic adventures of reluctant hero Steffan McFessel, started as a fun thought experiment and wound up inspiring the novel THE MOSTLY WEIRD CHRONICLES OF STEFFAN McFESSEL, also by Ted Wenskus and Marcos Donnelly.

Both literary and slapstick, the work offers two ways to enjoy the plot: (1) by selecting what characters do next at the end of each mini-section and making a one-click jump to the next scene; or (2) by reading straight through all optional scenes to see how the authors mix up the fun and put their characters through their paces.
