My horse fantasy narrative game has been focused heavily on the narrative for a long time, but lately I've been thinking about stable management as a core feature.
Like, brushing magic horses and picking hooves while also dealing with complex political stuff.
It's very tempting

Working on my Game Design Document and my tagline rn is "Lake meets Disco Elysium meets Cyberpunk" and I love how unhinged that is.

Part of my goal for 2025 is to actually develop the game I've been fiddling with for years.
Looking to be better on here and connect with game dev/narrative design community! 💜💜

I really think reality dating shows are going to be used for anthropological study in the future. Watching the way people struggle to communicate in live action is going to be amazing.

My current status is asking astrology how to be happier in my daily life.
The answers are great, honestly, I just need to move past all my flaws and prioritize myself which is... Difficult.

Big thanks to TikTok for letting me know about Binocular Vision Disorder which I just found out I have.
Getting special lenses in my new glasses and hopefully some daily relief!

I've been actively trying to work through my anxiety lately by focusing on being chill.
Gutted by impending doom? No, we're chilling on our comfy armchair.
Chilling taking in art (watching TV)
The goal is to teach my body to just breathe a little more so it gets a little easier.

Like most writers, I struggle sometimes with prioritizing my ideas, and the last few months, I've been very tempted by the shiny new thing.
Here's the problem: I wasn't writing books.

I've been feeling a bit scattered creatively lately. I'm getting words down, but not on my priority projects.
I think it's life stress getting in the way, but I'm not sure how to push past the doom and find the creative happiness I'm seeking.
I just want to lose myself in my worlds again.

NEXT WEEK is officially drafting time for the new book!
What's on your planning checklist before you jump into writing?
For me, it's going to be watching great period films to get in the vibe

The Special Hell of Adapting Your Own Novel
It may seem easy to adapt your own novel into a screenplay, that you know the story so well, that it’s simple to translate it into a different medium. But for me, it’s been a special kind of hell....

My favorite part about writing is when returning to the manuscript feels like tucking back into bed on a cold morning. When it feels like home

Sometimes I have a string of good days where I start to feel like a real person, and then I have a pain flare and reality comes crashing back down.
I'm pretty tough, but some days are less easy than others.
