Emily Short's Interactive Storytelling 
How hard would you say a small ghost story IF is to code for a novice at Inform? I’d like to enter this, but I’m still kinda lousy at coding.
That depends a lot on what you want the game experience to be like. If it’s going to be primarily about experiencing an environment with creepy atmosphere coming mostly from the writing, it might be doable. If you want the player to solve complicated puzzles or have a detailed conversation with the ghost or something along those lines, that might be quite a bit more challenge.
