Mini Update—Chapter 19, 25/Sept/2019

So, Chapter 19 isn't finished, but I've come along with it REALLY well.

So I just wanted to give a mini update to say I have finished the first branch section, the second branch section, the LI POVs, and I will be starting the final section today!

The final section is comprised of the LI split scenes.

So there are 0/5 scenes to go until I've completed Chapter 19.

I will keep you updated each time I finish one! Hoping to get Adam/Ava's finished today, but these scenes a...

That Bit Extra—September 2019

Sorry about last month. It was just supposed to be just for you $20+ tier guys, but I think I set it on more tiers. It was a hectic month, lol.

Got it right this time though!

A super sneaky snippet on a couple of choices for this month's bit extra:

#Kiss [redacted] with intimate gentleness.

#Kiss [redacted] very passionately.

--

There are more choices in this choice set, just thought these might be the most interesting for most people...he...

The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 20/Sept/2019

It was a shorter week for me as I took Monday off to rest, which I needed even more than I realised, hehe!

But it certainly helped give me that boost of freshness I was looking for! I want this last chapter to end strongly, not just because it's the end of the story but because I hope people will also want to come back for Book Three! :D

I managed to get up to the first split scenes based on a branch that was introduced in this book. It's pretty exciting getting this put into moti...

Unseen Scenes— ‘Those three little words.’

Many years ago…


It wasn’t just the twittering sound of bird call or the damp lake air that woke Rebecca that Tuesday morning, but also the sensation of someone’s lips on her skin.

With drowsy eyes, she glanced over her shoulder to the man she loved, the man she’d been only seeing for nine months, trailing soft kisses down her naked body under the bedsheet.

He began at her shoulder before moving down to her chest, then her stomach,...

CHAPTER 18 IS COMPLETE!

Oh man, I seriously pushed myself this week to get that done as I was so excited :D

As I said last week, there are three versions of Chapter 18 but they were nice and straightforward, so they ended up being a breeze to write!

Chapter 19 on the other hand is a big one. It's the epilogue/wrap-up kinda chapter, so there's quite a few variations in it to account for choices made throughout the book as well as with characters. It also en...

Mini Update #2

Two out of three versions for Chapter 18 are complete!

I'm so on a roll, and these simpler scenes certainly help with ploughing through the writing :D 

I'm really enjoying these scenes though. The interaction in it feels different but so nice after everything that's happened so far...

The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 06/Sept/2019

Amazing week this week! As you guys may have seen, I'd hoped to finish Chapter 17 by the end of this week but ended up finishing it on Wednesday! Which meant I actually started writing Chapter 18 on Thursday! Woohoo!!

Getting to the penultimate chapter feels like a huge leap forward.

There's actually 3 different versions of Chapter 18, though. But they are really quite straight forward with no major branching in each version, mostly just dialogue and skill choices. So writing them...

The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 30/August/2019

Busy week again this week, though likely to be that way now until I'm finished :D

The multiple split scenes were going smoothly until I came to Felix/Farah's, then realised theirs needed 2 versions of each. There's only slight differences in some, bigger in others, but those differences mean a lot as it's based on a choice made in a much earlier chapter.

So yeah, that slowed me down a bit. But I'm hoping to get F's done today, then I only have 2 of M's to go!

Then it's onto ...

Wallpaper—Wayhaven P.D. Detective's Badge

I have a new wallpaper for you guys, and I've been so excited to share this one for quite a while, hehe! :D

It is the Detective's badge for the Wayhaven P.D.

The design for the badge is based largely on the clock tower at The Square in the centre of Wayhaven.

You can download the different wallpaper sizes here:

That Bit Extra—August 2019

So, this is a kinda spoilery snippet. I want to give you guys a real extra, but if you would prefer something other than more spoilery stuff than please let me know!

It is out of context, and it also is an outcome based on a choice, so you may not actually get it during your runthrough!

The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 23/August/2019

A good week this week! Though I didn't manage to get as many test playthroughs done as I was hoping for at the beginning of the week. This game is LARGE, with a lot of variations and branching, etc.

It's something I'm really going to have to warn beta-testers about when I put a call out, as I want them to be sure they can handle that. I think it's gonna be so awesome to play with the variations, as it should make playthroughs fresh, even when playing the same LI route! Just…makes it t...

As some of you may have seen yesterday, the base writing for Chapter 16 is complete!! Yay!

I have to do editing, and there is some rewriting for bits I want to do, but I will be finishing that today and over the weekend.

Next week, I won't be jumping straight into Chapter 17 (which is also another HUGE chapter to write) as I really need to do some maintenance kinda stuff.

Choicescript recently had an update, and I haven't actually downloaded it yet. So I need to do ...

I think this has everything to do with just how intensely detailed I'd made the plan, so that's something I've definitely learnt for plans for future books.

I'm actually coming up to an either-or choice set that I'm hoping will give a little drama and angst to the moment, and those are always some of my favourites, so I'm very excited about writing it, hehe!

But yeah, not much more to say oth...

So July was quite the month!

My goal for July was to finish Chapter 12, finish Chapter 13, and get started on Chapter 14.

We really are getting into the home stretch now. Chapter 16 and 17 are massive but they are the kind of big crescendo before the ends of Chapter 18, with Chapter 19 being the epilogue (which I am very excited about a...

As some of you may have seen earlier in the week, I finished Chapter 14 and dived straight into 15! Chapter 15 has been a nice smooth one too.

I mentioned that 14 and 15 are kinda more easy, downtime ones to lead into th...
