If you'd like to see how I formatted that particular flashback scene, I have it broken down over in this thread: bsky.app/profile/semb...
#vemywrites | ✍️Edit/Format a chapter with me!
AKA behold the epic mess of my editlog for a format-heavy scene.

This contains spoilers for a big scene in Ch. 5 of Separate Seasons(☕!🦚🛁). Read only if you want to.

(CW: flashbacks/dark themes)

[As a disclaimer: Coffee AU has most formatting out of all my fics, followed by Repeat Until Death, which was more scene organization heavy (past/future) than identity crisis/dissoc heavy.

Everyone has their own writing style, and this just happens to be mine!

I don't know if there's any additional pointers I can give, but I hope the editlogs show my general logic while writing scenes like these!

Feel free to drop questions if you have any <3

I would consider this scene finished - barring the two teeny bits I'm debating on deleting - so this editlog will end here!

You'll see the final version when the chapter is posted.

I hope the annotations were helpful - it was really fun doing them lmao.

This is Draft 2 of the same scene (Separate Seasons Ch. 5), about as raw as it can get (i.e. exactly after writing it, zero checks for grammar/vocab/etc).

The word count has gone from 800+ to 1.5k words for the same section.

We're editing the section annotated in *black* (Pic 1). This is the *rough draft*.

To help visualize, I've annotated the parts in Pic 2. Read L→R, up to down.

(You will need to zoom 🙇‍♀️!)

It makes me happy to know that people are getting inspired to write their own fics, modifications present or not 🫶 Play around with it as much as you like, go wild, be comfy, and I hope you have fun ❤️

bonus: 🦚 ends up training 🥮 to spot/identify genuine gems/precious metals. Sometimes there will be two of them sitting with him at his workbench, one on the table, another on his lap. The third sits next to the register in the store and MEOWS very loudly when someone comes in.

My grandmother used to embroider with gradient floss cut to sections of colour changes. I think 🤔 I'm understanding the technique. Maybe.

There's definitely a trust the process moment and I suspect once the entire work is complete, the effect will be pretty subtle, but I like it.

I'm grateful for all the supportive people in my life. Thank you for being here, and thank you for seeing me ❤️

To more exciting (but not too much lmao) adventures (real or otherwise fictional) in 2025!!!✨ - Vemy ❤️

Most likely scenario is that I'll do a very small print run (~10 copies or more depending on demand), and giveaway/sell the remain copies at production price 😅.

Alternatively I might put up print-ready copies of my books on ko-fi at the minimum price for those who want to diy!
