Hi Returning Visitors,
Key highlights of this update and reminders:
Hello Returning Visitors,
I must say this poll is rather perfectly timed given our most recent alpha drop which hopefully brightened your day with the one and only ray of sunshine, A. Corvin. You will have read (or should eventually be reading) how they take on a greater role in the series! The variation in this relationship is something I hope readers explore. :D
I mentioned this on the previous poll's post, but these narrative influence types of polls c...

Hi Returning Visitors,
I hope you're doing well.
Our next alpha content drop is today! 🎉 There is so much in store for you; I can't wait for you to continue uncovering more about Fernweh, its characters, its history, and even your Returning Visitors. Hopefully, you'll become further lost in the town.
✨ I will be direct messaging you on Patreon with the link and password information, so I request your patience, please, ...

Hi Returning Visitors,
Today marks the six month anniversary of TFS Patreon! I sincerely appreciate all of the support, kindness, and encouragement you have shown me. It is an honor and pleasure to write for you, and it means so much to me to be able to share the world of Fernweh with all of you. It's a series that's extremely close to my heart. 🥰
I can never thank you all enough, but I wanted to celebrate our communit...

I wanted to share the playlists for the TFS characters. I believe some of you will have found them from our TFS Patreon Discord; however, I wanted to share them here just in case. It might be fun to listen to them while playing the new Book Two content or while replaying Book One! They are located on Spotify. 🎶
Hi Everyone!
I wanted to share more about the Returning Visitor in this mini-ramble; it was sparked by someone sending me this on Tumblr:
"you know, sometimes it's easy to forget how much MC has gone through, having lost both of their parents and their last remaining family member...I can't even imagine going through all of if I'm being honest. breaks my heart every time I think about it"
I actually haven't published/addressed this ask sin...

In honor of J. Corvin's birthday, I collected/revamped some writings about them to share with you. I tried to mix sweet, bittersweet, and spicy—a trail mix of J! 🥰

How would J react to the MC saying that they can hold the whole world in their hands and then holding/cradling J's face?

Hello Everyone!
I hope you're doing well. 💚
Our next alpha drop is impending, or at least it feels that way to me! 😁 I can't wait for you all to delve into it, since this one dials down the suspense in favor of easing you all back into Fernweh with re-introductions of some of your faves. We also have a narrative influence poll about A with Hickory and Evergreen patrons getting a chance to see the lil' dollop of sunshine. 🌞 That's not all! Our wri...

Hello Hickory Patrons! 🍂
This has been one of the more intriguing Author's View posts that I've written since it requires a bit more of a balancing act on my part with spoilers. Walking that fine line to excite you, while still allowing Book Two's twists to play out, is a challenge that I love! The ripple effects in TFS can certainly vary; think of tossing a stone into a lake versus driving a car off of a pier int...

Well, the house burning down around the dog adds another dimension to this, but I was actually referencing the common refrain the MC uses during TFS: "I'm fine." It is intentional on my part! This line can be called into question by both besties and ROs of the MC during certain moments; it's sometimes a reflex, a deflection, or a mantra.

Hi Everyone!
The exploration of this new variable sparked more interest than I anticipated, possibly due to my spectacular emoji usage, but that's great. Let's dive into it. 👀
Okay, so the name of the variable is…

I hope you’re having a lovely day/night.
I'm eager to offer another art poll where your votes determine the next art piece that will be revealed, possibly even the subject matter and vibe of future artwork too! Evergreen patrons will also be able to view the pieces, but only you all will get to cast a vote for it. Last time, Ms. Verner won; however, there are more characters from the start of your trip in Fernweh to choose from, including a new sunny ...

Yes, the only reason I didn't call this^ 'Rainbow Road Wallpaper' is because I think that's a racetrack in Mario Kart. However, this wallpaper's saturated colors are meant to remind you of all the beautiful colors in a rainbow, although the road itself is a little ominous around the edges. 👀 It's also very fitting for Pride month!
You'll find a link below to a Dropbox folder that contains a variety of sizes for the wallpaper so you c...
