ConWriter: Transition-Constrained Stateful Long-Form Story Generation with Lightweight Neuro-Symbolic Consistency Control

ConWriter is a training‑free framework that generates long‑form stories scene by scene, using static requirements, dynamic memory, symbolic state reasoning, and uncertainty‑aware risk signals to enforce consistency. It checks each new scene against required narrative transitions and repairs local errors before they propagate. Evaluations on ConStory‑Bench show that ConWriter matches or outperforms direct generation and a recent baseline, improving narrative consistency across multiple models and story lengths.

IVIE: A Neuro-symbolic Approach to Incremental and Validated Generation of Interactive Fiction Worlds

arXiv:2606. 13348v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computational creativity in Interactive Fiction faces a fundamental tension: Large Language Models (LLM) may produce creative narratives but struggle with world coherence, while symbolic systems ensure consistency but lack creative flexibility.

MUSE: A Theory-Harnessed Story Engine for Vibe Narrativizing

MUSE is a story‑generation engine that applies Robert McKee’s narrative theory to guide decisions about plot, character, and language throughout planning, drafting, and revision. It structures story knowledge into rule atoms, semantic consolidations, and mechanisms, and uses intermediate deliverables to preserve decisions across creative stages. Experiments show MUSE improves benchmark scores over zero‑shot generation and maintains low consistency errors across multiple models.
