Nah, I don’t think so. But I also grew up reading ASOIAF, and there are so many POV characters in those.

I love a fellow villain appreciator.

An excellent choice. 🙂‍↕️

I love Kenzie so much, in the “Kenzie, NO!!!” kind of way. 😂
November 15, 2025 at 8:13 PM
That’s awesome! Great progress! 🤩

Nicely done! Keep it up! 👏

100% agreed!

Not sure exactly how the app will function just yet, but 6 seconds is not a lot of time. I just remember Vine videos being some of the most creative and hilarious creations precisely because of that strict time limit.

Hell yeah!! 👏

I have not!

I may actually take a break from writing today to take care of chores, play some games, and grab dinner with friends. Gotta refill my cup!

Oh no, I'm so sorry.

The plot went through so many revisions as I outlined, but even now, I'm changing things here and there. There's a misconception that outlining ahead of time means I lose out on the magic of discovery, but that's not true. Each outline, draft, etc. simply uncovers more of the story.

I'm a plotter through and through, so I spent October plotting COTBM and writing a detailed outline. It's been an incredible resource, as I can simply check to see what I should be writing next as I'm drafting.

Yep! I really like stories that show an established couple being tested by external forces/challenges and growing closer as a result. I know that’s not common in romances nowadays, but I hope to contribute to changing that.

It definitely could. I think this sort of question is more likely to come up in Book 2, when the Katorgans engage Lex's father and family in a war for Belenos' freedom.
