What're all the Goldurn Rabbit Holes Fer?

The TPRH* definition of Rabbit Holes is very much in line with Lewis Carroll's. Magical gateways to new worlds and new experiences. Unfortunately, we don't use any magic, just words and media.

A Rabbit Hole is a place that might have no content that directly ties into our fiction projects, yet provides bits and pieces designed to take someone deeper into our universe.

Several people have said that they started down one of our Rabbit Holes and stayed engaged for hours.

*the internal acronym for Totem Poles and Rabbit Holes

What the Heck is a Totem Pole?

From the viewpoint of the Totem Poles and Rabbit Holes presentation and Expanded Experience eBook™ Architecture, a Totem Pole is a location, normally an Internet location or website that contains a real-time story enhancement component within its content.


Expanded content within the Totem Pole may contain:
  • Character backstory and other information
  • Details about locations and setting
  • Fictitious companies, organizations and other things to expand the reader experience.
  • Brief stories about characters, locations, and organizations that are not directly related to publication you are reading.
