The motto for ICIDS 2013 \u201cConnecting Narrative Worlds\u201d expresses this need to build bridges of understanding across different fields to make even better use of the immense potential of interactive narrative. The objective of ICIDS 2013 is to promote understanding and dialogue between A.I. researchers, designers, transmedia and digital artists, narratologists and digital game scholars. In this respect the ICIDS 2013 Workshops section aims to bring together members of interactive digital narrative community with shared interests to meet in the context of focused participatory discussions, practical sessions and demonstrations.Each workshop are expected to generate ideas that will give the interactive narrative community a novel, organized way of thinking about the topic or that suggest promising directions for future research and practices. A short description (2 pages) in Springer LNCS publication format will be included in the proceedings of the conference.<\/p>\n
