Getting close to being able to showing off some screenshots for this project (it's a little late because I keep catching colds this season). In the meantime, here's the act III epigraph. It varies a bit based on player choices. #poetry #indiedev #visualnovel

Still burnt out, but finished a little BG art the other day and this simple NVL screen last night, plus a chapter epigraph that I will keep if it still fits the chapter when I'm done with it #visualnovel #pixelart #poetry #indiedev

Today I'm going to get some work done... *gets a fever that lasts 5 days* Okay, NOW I'm going to-- *hornets come in through the light fixtures and vents*

Sad to learn Holly Lisle has passed away. :( She had a huge impact on me - I picked up Mugging the Muse when I was a kid & shortly after began finishing novellas/novels. I've always loved her approach to world-building, her writing & philosophy. hollylisle.com
