I want my story/game to have some sense of personality to it, (put their name in instead of a set name, like Jonh, or Alex.Is there any way I could have them input stuff into it??



Thanks

You need to state which story format you are using as answers can be different for each one. I am going to assume that your are using the Harlowe story format.

Harlowe's documentation currently only lists the (prompt:) macro for allowing a Reader to "input stuff"


(put: (prompt: "What's your name?") into $name)
Your name is $name.


If you want something more advanced then you will need to use standard HTML and some Javascript to achieve that, something like the example in this post.
