2024-04-15 13:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostI'm working on the final video in the collaborative project series, but it involves a little more of an in-depth going into (LOVED all your ideas for the Matchmaker on the last video! Seriously creative!)
So I thought so this month instead while I'm working on that, we would go back to our behind-the-scenes sneak peek…which also happens to be the first sneak peek look at the villain romance!
Often times I will come up with scenes or dialogue in the middle of the night or making ...

I'M LOOKING AT YOU COMMANDING AGENT DU MORTAIN! 😂😂
So close to finally being done with the character creator, editing, and clean up code (though I think that will be something I continue to do as I’m writing and find variables I can condense or sort out)!
This part has taken soooo much longer than I planned or wanted, but I have to remind myself it’s worth the work—especially when it means I can just transfer what I’ve spent so long sorting for this book to the next one and just add on the variables for the last book. I...

A building as old as the items it contains, Rooted Craft is nestled between the (rather boring) pharmacy and (rarely-used) estate agents, meaning its polished dark wood frontage with ivy and honeysuckle tumbling dreamily down around it stands out like a flower amongst weeds.
After being split and turned into a retail space when its life as a factory was done, this shop has always sold the more pricey items, though these days there's a focus on antiques. It's been in the same family fo...

At the end of summer, the lake is a dream. The glassy, still waters are alight in a glow of topaz and citrine, strings of golden pearl-like light glimmering on the surface.
Farah and I sit at the water’s edge, watching as the sun dances down behind the shimmering horizon line, spreading a final dying burst of warmth across the town.
The scene would be idyllic…if not for the midges. 2024-04-10 13:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post

After some suggestions about multiple choices on the same screen from a few amazing patrons, I looked into how to do that and if it would work for the character creation.
And it really has! I could cry it feels like there’s finally a solution, lol! :D
It does mean I had to completely start over, but with how it looks now, I think I have found how I want it to be for all the future books. It means I should just be able to copy everything ...

"Then why did you ask all the time about them?" Farah/Felix asks with a shrug before adopting a mock frown. "'Do you think [Name] will finally visit today?' 'When is [Name] ever going to be done with their training?' 'Why doesn't [Name]—'"

When the town of Wayhaven originally came into being, it was a dock and warehouse-focused centre with little need of recreation or green spaces.
But as the warehouses fell into disuse and the docks became something used more for fun than commerce, the residents needed somewhere green in town.
And Rivett Pond & Grounds was formed.
Landscaped on the top of an old waste mountain used by the warehouses, the eyesore was transformed into a beautiful space with a rippling pond ...

I mentioned before about having a different system in place for Book Four when it comes to editing and testing. The plan is to write one chapter, completely do all my own editing and testing on it, then move onto writing the next chapter. Whilst I then write the next chapter, the previous one can go to the editor before then going to the readers and testers.
Hopefully completely finishing up one cha...

Built as the residential space of those who originally founded the town, The Cornerstones has remained the occupancy of the more influential and affluent members of Wayhaven.
Not only do the houses here stand out for their size and grandeur, but also for their uniqueness against the rest of the town's architecture—formed mostly from the skeletons of the redbrick warehouses that played a key role in the function of the busy docks.
The set of large ornate iron gates that lead into...

The obvious place to start for this is pictures. Images. Which you can totally do and is a very inspiring way to go. I’m a very visual person myself, so it always works for me.
But what if that’s not the route you want to take? Sometimes it’s easy to go for the obvious when you look at pictures.
Instead, why don’t we work with what we already have pl...
