Busy and hectic week this week!
Silver, one of my rats, got seriously ill last weekend, so I didn't manage to print out the variables and sort that like I'd hoped as he needed constant care. But I managed to sort some of that on Monday instead and on Tuesday I STARTED WRITING BOOK THREE!!!!
Oh man, it's so nice to get back to writing, hehe. I love planning, but the ...

'Kiss me out of the bearded barley...
Nightly, beside the green, green grass...'

Bit old school again for this song, but I thought we could all do with some lovely fluffy uplifting :D
Felix/Farah song aesthetic: 'Kiss Me' by Sixpence None the Richer
Hope you like it <3
2020-04-09 11:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostA good week this week!
The final stages of planning for Book Three have gone super smoothly, so I think I'm all set to start writing next Monday! Seriously exciting, especially the opening, which is an idea I've had for a Wayhaven book for years :D
Got a couple of final things to do before that, which I'll work on over the weekend, like printing out all the variables so I have them ...
2020-04-03 10:58:59 +0000 UTC View PostBlimey, what a week! It was a seriously full one :D
I steamed ahead on Book Three planning and am seriously so eager and excited to start getting writing in April! I managed to figure out which scenes go in the final plans, but a lot of the scenes left will either go for other books or become Unseen Scenes here on Patreon!
Planning had to be put on hold for a couple of days though a...

So this is the first CG for The Curse of Creek Edge! She has different expressions, but this is her go-to neutral.
Bit of a formal setting to discuss the upcoming mission for the MC with the head of Tactical Agents! :D
Hope you like it <3

A simple bed strewn with a multitude of blankets is set against one wall. Farah is spread out under them, her heaved breaths becoming more so as she attempts a bright smile in my direction. She then winces as a cut on her lip bleeds a little. Every inch of her on display is wrapped in bandages or wound-coverings.

2020-03-23 13:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostBit of a weird week this week. Had a lot of strange self-doubt, which meant I restarted the MC sprite base about 5 times.
But when I eventually found my footing again, I realised my original idea was still the best idea. So I went back to that and did the 5 base variations. Still a lot of work to do on them, but at least that's sorted!
Book Three planning went really well. I was rea...
2020-03-20 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostBusy, busy week this week. I love working on two projects, especially as they're so different in structure and medium, but maaannnn...it's a lot of work, lol!
I'm loving bringing these stories together though!
Book Three has pushed on. I'm working on filling in the gaps and expanding any scenes that seem scant or that I have just written 'MORE HERE' in the plans for :D
I'm als...

Locks of muddy brown hair curled in front of his hazel eyes so doe-like they resembled a puppy. His full lips were curled up at the sides, the grin reaching those doe eyes so as the sparkled in a way Rebecca didn’t think was at all professional...
2020-03-10 12:59:01 +0000 UTC View PostSo the GUI is finally mostly done! It's been interesting getting back into coding for Ren'Py after so long on Choicescript, but seeing the results is always worth it :D
I'll be posting a sneak peek for Instagram today, but wanted you guys to see the full thing.

Busy week again!
Managed to seriously make a leap forward on Book Three planning. There's a scene at the end that I am in love with. Something I didn't expect, but man, I can't wait!!
Next week I will be laying out all my plans on the floor to see where there's gaps in romance, friendship, active scenes, etc. Starting to really fill out those areas to make sure the story is balanced...

A couple of months ago, after the Elidor scenario, Mewsly commented about a female Elidor and, well, I couldn't stop thinking about it!
This is a quick idea of what she might look like, but mostly it was the difference Elidor's life would been if he'd been female. It's all to do with the type of ...

Yay for logos! :D
Graphic design is not my forte, but I had good fun with this. It didn't turn out anything like the sketches I had thought:
But sometimes it's good to go with your gut, even if it's so much different than what you thought!
Hope you guys like it! I'm gonna reveal it to...

A curse unleashed will bring unexpected hearts together…
When an unforeseen magical incident occurs, setting off a long quiet curse, you’ve been sent in to deal with the situation.
But you won’t be alone.
Dealing with magic gone wrong is an everyday occurrence for you as a Tactical Agent of the secret supernatural and human run organisation known as ‘The Agenc...
2020-03-01 17:32:58 +0000 UTC View PostI have returned! Internet is still a bit sketchy, but at least it's connecting now :D
But I've had a seriously productive week! The plans are speeding forward, even though my idea of pulling back on split chapters went down the drain pretty quick, lol. I think towards the end, there's split scenes or different versions of chapters for nearly every chapter. It'll be hard work, but with how...

Valentine’s Prompt: Box of chocolates

“Hey!” a now very familiar voice calls from the doorway of my apartment. I glance up from the sofa just in time to see a heart-shaped box come hurtling towards me like a frisbee. I stumble to catch it, then stare down in shock at the box with its neat, red satin bow.
“Wait, is this a valentine’s gift?...

"Are you hoping to be Lauren's amusement while she's here, Natey?" Felix prods.
Nate's eyes widen more than I've ever seen at Felix's comment. "That's not…it's not at all appropriate to say things like that."

My internet has decided to pretty much die, and it's gonna take about a week to get fixed (hoping that's a large overestimation...) so I wanted to jump on while I could to get this update in and let you all know I've not just disappeared!
I won't be around possibly until end of next week becau...

“Agh, jeez! Just go…through…the door—WHOA!” A yelp expels from me as I crash through the doorway and tumble headfirst towards the floor. Thankfully, the way-too-large teddy bear gripped in my arms is enough to break my fall, and instead I bounce off it and roll onto the rug of t...

This won't have huge consequences, but it will have affect over some moments and how scenes play out. (Kind of like the race choice in Dragon Age: Inquisition)
I have such a huge list of supernatural races I love, but I managed to whittle them down to what would work for the story's setting...

Really pleased with how the plan is coming together though. I would like to do another expansion of it before I begin writing, but I'll have to judge that by my schedule.
Still, expanding it is going well. I went from one page of A4 for a chapter plan to 10 pages! And that's only o...
