This is different than "Pending enrollment" (you already took care of this).
This means that we are missing info/documents from you that we need to pay you.

Twine
Some Twine story examples:

Recommended!
"Harlowe" is the default story format in Twine. Change it to "Sugarcube" just in case you would like to add advanced features (CSS, sound, Twine code).
In the top menu:
Twine >> Story Formats
Then select "SugarCube 2.37.3" and set it as the new default story format.
What to type in passages
Always give a passage a title. Keep it short.
You can type text into a passage, and you can also include HTML!
| <h1> </h1> | This creates the biggest header text |
| <h2> </h2> | This creates header text, but a bit smaller |
| <strong> </strong> | This will boldface text |
| <em> </em> | This will create italics |
To make a link to a new passage
Use: [[ ]]
Format: [[ desired text -> next passage title ]]
(Or: [[ desired text | next passage title ]] — same thing)
Adding images – hotlinking
You can copy the full URL (web address) of an image file on the web, and use it in your Twine passage.
Here is starter code to copy'n'paste:
<img src="">
<img src="paste the full URL here">
For example: if I search for Mario and find a picture in Google Images, I can view it and then right-click and Copy image address
This is the data on my clipboard after copying:
https://pngimg.com/uploads/mario/mario_PNG71.png
The I can write the HTML tag and paste in the url.
<img src="https://pngimg.com/uploads/mario/mario_PNG71.png">
