Writers' Cave šŸ’­

Although I’m really excited to see this, if I were you I would probably wait until I finish the first 3 episodes. You know people will keep asking when do you continue, but of course it’s not that big deal if you have an answer for it :slightly_smiling_face:

Oh, see this is the problem with me; I see what you’re saying, but by the time my brain processes it, all I’m hearing is ā€œjust don’t sleep until it’s finishedā€ as if that’s some kind of mistake option. So… I should do that instead, right? :grinning:

Yeah I guess, I know how it feels when you are too tired but you want to finish that freaking episode before going to bed. Just make sure to run the last preview and don’t end up publishing a chapter with some huge spelling mistake, like I do when I publish at 2 a.m :smiley:

This this is more like a mini-writers rant but since the ranting thread is closed sigh

I’ve been getting fanmail that some choices aren’t working, and this worries me because those choices are gain choices. I’ve checked the spelling, and there’s nothing wrong - and I’m freaking out because I don’t know how to fix broken gains - because, they aren’t broken for everyone. I don’t use gains as much as I use to, but literally gains are the most important part in my coding (e.i. genders, mancer type, choices, no-reread episodes). I really don’t know what to do, which is scary for me to say because this is out of my control and I cannot fix it - like what do I tell my readers? Send a support ticket? Maybe I’ve hit like a freaking gain limit or something (is that a thing?)

College Days: Mysterious Northview is probably the furthest I’ve ever gone with a story. And one of the best directed! But I’m running low on ideas for episode 4. Suggestions, tips?

So, this is the teaser for episode 4:

Arden decides to look into Northview’s history… And finds something shocking. Venetia’s first awakening is successful, and Aurelia starts teaching Melania. Then Arden begins to act strange…

Right now I’m in the middle of branching Professor Snow’s choices based on episode 2.

Basically, the story is about a woman who gets ā€œacceptedā€ into a university, called ā€œNorthviewā€, which is actually a supernatural university/realm. The Headmistress is very strange. Disappearances and murders happen. And her roommate as well as her friends are weird too. Then something strange starts happening to the students… There’s a lot of branching and choices.

The teaser for the episode four doesn’t really seem interesting to me as I haven’t read your story and isn’t familiar with how or who the characters are but I’ve one suggestion for you.

As you said disapearences or murders happen so you can either make one of the characters who have met your MC in the previous episodes go missing or kill them and bring that into the knowledge of your MC as she finds some clues left behind by the murderer who killed that person.

Did you get what I’m trying to say?Sorry my ideas are pretty complex.

Yes, I do. That makes a lot more sense…

That’s actually a great idea!

@loveyourself I think it would also be very interesting if the MC’s family start acting strange the moment she gets accepted to the university because there’s some sort of hidden truth about her past that she doesn’t know yet? Like maybe her family history isn’t what she thought it was, wasn’t normal, instead was filled with secrets? Maybe there’s a hereditary curse or something of that sort that explains why she fits in and why she got accepted to the university in the first place?
