I recently released a psychological horror visual novel!
Gavriil and Yeva, strangers who met by chance on the same train, in the same cabin, and when their train derails in the middle of nowhere- they're suddenly forced to work together to survive.

Just tried Welcome to Derry. Has an unnecessarily gross scene and near cartoonish horror at points. Still making up my mind, but willing to give it a couple more episodes.

I hate the clocks going backwards and forwards. When I was young, we didn’t even have clocks. If we got hungry, we ate each other. We were poor, but we were happy. Good times. Not that we had time. It hadn’t been invented. We had to make our own time out of string and cholera.

Part of why we quit Nanowrimo was because they supported genAI writing. And a lot of us are hunting for alternatives. ProwritingAid's Novel November, a company that uses gen AIis not the answer.
A better answer is FirstDraft Fall
