A key challenge in computational narrative is story generation. In this paper we focus on analogy-based story generation, and, specifically, on how to generate both story and text using analogy. We present a dual representation formalism where a human-understandable representation (composed of English sentences) and a computer-understandable representation (consisting in a graph) are linked together in order to generate both story and natural language text by analogy. We have implemented our technique in the Riu interactive narrative system.
