Even prior to that time, you're likely familiar with my 'writing blitzes' that I tend to slip into once our Patreon content for a given month is mostly fleshed out. My carving away at Book Two's sprawling outline is thanks to your support and genuine encouragement! There are many scenes I can't wait for…

Hello Returning Visitors!
I hope you're doing well. 💚
As you know, I'm officially back from my hiatus and psyched to share more of Fernweh with you all.
My milestone was effectively crushed while I've also been jotting down content ideas to share with you throughout 2025, which is why it took me a while to decide on what to feature. Our writings this month deal wit...

While the Overlook Hotel's caretaker and I both took a retreat for relaxation and added focus on our writing, hopefully that's where our similarities end. 😉 I reached my word count milestone; no, it wasn't because of padding it with: 'All work and no play makes Aelsa a dull girl' over and over...

This post's title relates to quite a few things for both of us:
After pushing back her section to expand scenes and add choices, I finished Rosie's mechanic shop visit. I've shared a few teasers from it.
Marjorie! 🌻 Her section of this chapter is variation heavy because you'll likely be taking your RO(s) with you to talk to her. The characters have different views on how you engage with her in addition to knowing varying accounts ...

🌲TFS: Book Two Teaser, Dressed to Impress 🌲
JR-mancers will be wearing this at some point in Book Two!
It might make you wonder how a certain Verner heir managed to get your measurements just right, possibly from covert (or not-so-covert) admiring? 👀 2024-11-22 14:31:23 +0000 UTC View Post
Question: "What would the MC's family think about the ROs? :< I know their parents are dead, but I was thinking about it because the mom or dad is mentioned. Also, what about our grandpa?"

Within this writing, the two of you were roommates; however, this is something you'll be tailoring in Book Two or it can be left to headcanon as well.

I'm actually floored by how well searching 'apple' worked for this chapter—the teasers, the hints, and the flirting?

Ooh, how I've been waiting for this ramble to publish!
It ties into our upcoming writing, 'The Incident', which is a J. Corvin POV that gives you all insight into what exactly went down on an important Halloween night. This is something that will be addressed in TFS: Book Two. You know when at least three different characters allude or hint at a past event that it must be a big deal.

Slowly but surely, I'm making my way through the list of topics I want to share with you all, except I then add more to said list while I'm writing. I think it's because I know this post offering gives me more freedom to spoil and provide sneak peeks that it's a paradox of choice situation.
