Introduction
Hi Everyone!
I hope you’re doing well.
First, I know that the title might come off as a little daunting, so please let me reassure you that the changes I’m about to outline are about lowering select tier prices and adding benefits.
It’s nothing unsettling like in Fernweh. 🌲
Before we get into that, I would like to share a quick story. My grandmother enlisted my help to make a cake, but not just any old cake; she desired a bl...

Hello!
TFS: Book One released on January 5th, so we're almost approaching its one month milestone.
I thought it might be fun for you all to test your knowledge of Fernweh with a playful quiz that includes a variety of questions about what you may (or may not) have noticed during the story. It's best to have played through the game at least once since there are spoilers. At the end, you will get a message that will remind you of the

Hi Everyone!
I hope you’re looking forward to a restful weekend.
We’re slowly approaching TFS: Book One’s one month release milestone (?). I think that’s the right word for it, though I’m tempted to use ‘anniversary’ since it’s my beloved. 🥰 While I know many of you familiar with me on Tumblr or the Forum have had a chance to experience the story at least once, it’s also awesome to see new Returning Visitors venturing to Fernweh...

Reckless!MC: When have I done anything rash or irresponsible?
B: I keep a list. It's alphabetized.
A moment of silence for B when they are roped into plans highly reckless MCs come up with.
I know they wouldn't have it any other way; someone needs to look out for the MC.
While my friend/editor and I are wor...

Hello!
I hope your weekend is going well. 😊
I wanted to create that short and sweet poll that I mentioned in the Author’s Choice this month to help me decide the third flower-character combo. From that writing, you will have discovered that there is so much more to those floral arrangements since they link to the romance routes and how characters may feel about each other.
You’ll find some combinations below to vote on.
It's open now and will rema...

Hi Everyone!
I hope you had a lovely week.
Well, I learned something that I kind of already knew about myself. If I say: ‘I’ll think about it’, then I really think about anything other than ‘it’ and procrastinate until someone asks me the same question again. (Yes, it’s an utter joy deciding what to eat for dinner with me. /s 😌) It has been 15 days since Book One’s release, and it sometimes still feels like the first day of release…
…But, I’m ...

The sweet aroma of chocolate wafting through the air almost makes up for the fact that the whir of an electric hand mixer distracted you from reading. B remains oblivious to your presence, continuing to cream softened butter until it becomes a pale yellow in the mixing bowl with each rapid rotation of the beaters. They seem too intent to notice you anytime soon, but you smile faintly at the look of extreme concentration on their face.
This doe...

Hi Everyone!
I hope you’re doing well.
It’s extremely fitting to have a weekly update on one of the Friday 13ths within this year given TFS’s slow-build horror themes and the total number of chapters in Book One. 😉🖤🐈 That was an intentional choice! This number is sometimes associated with creepy things from the eerie clock in the Haunted Mansion attractions to the Friday the 13th slasher series and so on.
It’s been just over a week ...

Welcome Returning Visitors!
We've been waiting in anticipation for your eventual homecoming… But if you find yourself here, you must be even more curious about what lurks within Fernweh and its many secrets, or perhaps, someone or something drew you in that much deeper. It's so much more than curiosity; your support and interest in Fernweh will do wonders for it.

I hope you're doing well.
