Something a bit different for the Monthly Bonus Content this time :D
Wanted to get back into drawing, and of course Wayhaven was where I went!
The flowers are representative for Morgan (from what I could gather from quick research).
Daisies mean Loyal Love.
Red Poppies mean Pleasure.
Hope you like it :)
2019-07-25 11:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 14 is finished, onto Chapter 15!
And just two words about Chapter 15: Unit Alpha.
So for one of next month's Monthly Bonus Contents I will be doing a writing prompt exercise (they're great for practice!), and I really enjoyed having you guys decide the words during the Spring ones, so hoped you'd be up for it again!
Poll closes 30th July, and I'll use the top 3 chosen :D Have fun!
(Also, if anyone has any ideas for words for future prompts, please do note them in the comments!)
2019-07-20 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 14 is coming along really well. Should be two thirds through by the time I finish writing this week!
It got a bit more involved and varying than I thought and planned because, well you know, I have problems keeping things simple, hehe :D
But it is a bit of an information giving scene, so I want to make sure it all comes across easily and not too convulted or boring!
This end half of the scene is less information and more fun, devolving into less fun and more frantic....
2019-07-19 13:16:37 +0000 UTC View PostAnd now Ava’s version of this series of Unseen Scenes!
Hope you enjoy it :)
(I used 'they' as a pronoun for the Detective as it's neutral, so you can imagine whatever gender your MC actually is or NB)

At the Facility. Nearing Midnight.

Time. Ava barely takes note of time anymore. But how long it can seem!
Minutes drag into hours; hour drag into days; and days, well, they’ve seemed like centuries for the amount she...

2019-07-16 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostSo as some of you may have seen, Chapter 13 has turned into a bit of a bigger chapter than planned :D
It was supposed to be a more of a linear info/friend sort of scene, but has instead morphed into something with varying scenes at the beginning, then a split LI scene which has two slight versions of each depending on a very small dialogue choice from the early chapters, as well as a varying scene after that based on a choice made a couple of chapters back...
Yeah, I really need t...

Writing Exercise Prompts:

My head is a buzz with information. Overloading on sensory input.
And yet I can't stop smiling!
The musuem in the Big City isn't as fancy as some of the major city musuems, but it certainly packs a lot into the space its got.
Set in an old, restored castle on the very fringes of the town, it has a wing for historical art, a wing for t...

2019-07-11 11:59:01 +0000 UTC View PostI posted a quick WIP sketch of these on Instagram, but thought you guys might like a bit of a special preview of what's coming up at the end of the month ;D
Excited to share these! <3
2019-07-09 12:58:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey look, I even got the year right in the title this time, hehe!
Chapter 12's writing is finished!!! Woohoo!!!
I have to do edits and rewriting for bits, but I will be able to complete those today and tomorrow, so on Monday I will be starting Chapter 13 :D
I really enjoyed writing the LI scenes for Chapter 12. I mean, I love writing all the LI scenes, but these were more informational/downtime scenes with some stuff that I know people have been keen to find...
2019-07-05 11:24:48 +0000 UTC View PostJune was a great month, I completed my goal as well as all the common scenes for Chapter 12 and one and a half of the LI scenes!
The Wayhaven Chronicles: Book Two currently sits at a word count of 477,085 words. So it's now already bigger than Book One, and by far the biggest thing I've ever created :D
Hoping chapters will be a little smoother than the beasts that were Chapter 7 and Chapter 11, hehe (also Chapter 10, which was a terrible mess of coding. ...
2019-07-01 11:11:01 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Morgan: “How do you handle a romantic relationship with the Detective that's personality is very similar to Nate’s?”
--
Morgan scoffs out a loud breath, her nose crinkling at the question as cigarette smoke shudders out between her lips. “With as much avoidance as possible.”
“Well, that’s a lie,” Farah counters instantly, rolling her head back to try and stare at Morgan in the corner behind her. “You might moan about him, but y...
2019-06-30 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Adam and Nate: “How long have you known each other? Did you know each other as humans? How did you meet?”
--
They glance at each other, instantly breaking into smiles at the memories they seem to share.
“Oh, it’s been quite some time now,” Nate answers. “Almost longer than we can remember.”
“Almost. We have quite a few memories we share,” Adam says.
Nate leans forward in his chair with a soft laugh. “Do you rememb...
2019-06-29 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick update today, but I will do a longer monthly one on Monday for you guys!
Did really well this week considering it's been and will continue to be a bit up and down. But super pleased with what I've done and how much!
I finished all of the common scenes for the beginning on Chapter 12, which included M's friend scene, as well as one of the LI scenes! I've been waiting to write these particular LI scenes for a very, very long time...
Hoping to work on some stuff to...
2019-06-28 18:53:17 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Nate: “Are there myths/legends about the 1st natural vampire, or other supernatural kinds, arriving to this realm: how they got here, or how they lived? Have any notables made a significant impact on human history without awareness of their supernatural origin?”

He glances up in thought while pursing his lips. “What an interesting set of questions.”
“Ugh. He’s gonna go all history teacher on us,” Farah replies with a huff of bre...
2019-06-28 11:33:40 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a bit of an 'Unseen Scenes' thing again, but I had completely forgotten about it so I thought it would be fun to share.
This is a snippet I wrote when I was about 15 or 16. I have notebooks filled with Wayhaven snippets I've written over the very long development cycle :D Some of which will be updated, and make it into the series!
This one won't as it was a very early idea for Felix's character (when Felix had changed to Alex for a little while. Thankfully, that didn't sti...
2019-06-27 13:59:01 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Nat: “As her oldest and closest friend, do you ever fear that Ava's stubbornness will keep her from finding happiness with the Detective?”
--
“I fear her stubbornness will prevent her from doing many things, as it already has in the past,” Nat replies with a soft chuckle. “But I’m not entirely sure it’s just stubbornness that is affecting Ava in this matter.”
She leans back, folding her hands together in her lap. ...
2019-06-27 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Felix: “What’s your favorite part of our world and what do you miss the most about the Echo World?”
--
“I don’t even think I could list my favourite stuff about this world!” he exclaims as he rocks back in his chair with a smile. “The variety of things, for a start! Technology! Humans…in a totally interesting way, not in a humans-are-yummy kind of way.” He gives a wink.
Nat sighs and closes her eyes.
He begins to list mor...
2019-06-26 13:11:46 +0000 UTC View PostFor all of Unit Bravo: “What do you think of your new home at the Warehouse?”
--
Farah’s chair almost topples over as she springs up from it with a smile exploding onto her face. “Oh, it’s amazing! I’ve never—I mean, we’ve never had a real home before. A place that’s actually ours, right?” She glances at the others.
Nate chuckles softly. “It’s true. We usually stay at the facility when not on a job, and that’s not exactly a...
2019-06-25 11:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Elidor: “What type of Fae are you? You don’t seem like the usual kind.”
--
“The ‘usual kind’?” He quirks a blue brow up at that. “I’m not sure any Fae could be described as the usual kind. There are many varied types within the categorisation of Fae. I'm just one of those.” He pauses there, pinching his lower lip between thumb and finger before sighing. “Though I suppose I couldn't be classified as exactly like those typ...
2019-06-24 11:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Nat: "You seem to have a different thirst or draw to blood than your other teammates. How does it affect you differently?"
--
Nat squirms in her seat at the question, Ava instantly taking a half-step in front of her as though to shield her against the battering words.
“It’s all right, Ava,” Nat mutters.
Ava doesn’t move.
She lets out a small sigh, which has a curl of brunette hair dancing in front of her eyes from the motion....

--
(If Douglas Branch Taken)
He straightens in his seat, brushing down the Wayhaven P.D. uniform he wears…even if a few buttons are done up in the wrong buttonholes. “Well, obviously to make my superior—and very superior they are—officer proud.” A awe-struck gaze has a wistful sigh falling from his lips. “I’ll ...

Woohoo!! :D
I've even done my first set of edits for it as well as a playthrough to check over continuity, etc!
I'm actually SUPER excited about it, hehe. I was a bit worried one branch would feel weaker than the other, but I ended up loving it just as much! So eager for you guys to see all the variations of it, as well as the rather large decision to be made at the end…

2019-06-21 12:58:59 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Mason: “As a human, were you as much of a Casanova as you are now?”
--
Adam and Nate share a quick glance before shifting their concerned gazes in Mason’s direction.
But Mason only gives a shrug, spreading his legs wider over the arm of the sofa he’s perched on. “I can’t answer that.”
“Can’t or won’t?” Felix probes, to which Nate’s frown deepens.
Mason doesn’t respond.
2019-06-21 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Nat: “I know you have a... complicated relationship with modern tech. Are there any you can't help but find convenient?”
--
She instantly breaks into a smile. “’Complicated relationship’ is a good way to describe it.” She then tugs a curl of hair behind her ear in thought. “Washing machines. That’s something I truly couldn’t live without now. Do you remember how it used to be?” She turns to Ava with another smile.

2019-06-20 11:59:01 +0000 UTC View PostQuestion for Ava: “Has it ever crossed your mind that the line between stoic and stubborn is a rather fine one? Especially where matters of the heart are concerned?”
--
Nat almost breaks into a laugh as the question is asked, managing to mask it with a cough as Ava glares at her.
“I don’t see why such information should be relevant to me,” Ava replies as she shifts in the chair. “I have no interest in anything romantic with anyone.”

Felix sighs, his smile falling a little. “Nah, there’s nothing about the Agency in that place. Nobody even knows this world exists in that place. Everyone figured it was the only world.”
He leans back with the smile now being renewed. “As for being influenced…Do ...
