Abstract
The Writing 2000 Conference highlighted an urgency for discussion of the role that contemporary critical theory will play in the acceptance of hypertext narratives. The modernist view of the importance of the permanence of fixed recording in black and white and the predominance of an heroic narrative structure conflicts with the concept of hypertext as a text that is never fixed with the possibility of infinite versions. The question that needs to be addressed is, whether this infinite flexibility is a problem for the writer/reader of hyperfiction or if it could offer possibilities that recorded, fixed, linear print cannot.
