As everyone is quite aware by now, I do love angst and big gestures! :D
It suits the way I enjoy to play out scenes and write them all as big moments and over the top emotions and scenes.
But weirdly, this week I switched it up completely! It was social media days this week and that...
It's here folks, the moment I've been waiting for has arrived!
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new merchandise store in collaboration with Spring. Now you can indulge in an array of fun designs on a wide range of products, all inspired by the enchanting world of W...

Silence permeates the training room of the facility until the beat of my punch cracks through the thick silence. My fist strikes the padded mannequin with a wallop that sends vibrations wobbling all the way up my arm into my shoulder. I stumble back, shaking out the ache in my bandaged fingers. 2024-02-07 22:03:59 +0000 UTC View Post

2024-02-05 14:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostThis week was an interesting week!
As I said last week, I wanted A’s opening (well, all the love interest openings) to have a certain feel for Book Four.
At this point, both as the character and a reader, we want to be getting into the romance now. A real focus on it. It’...

Well, we have all of our love interests!
The bodyguard, the matchmaker, the heir to the previous throne, and a royal from another kingdom.

With more and more specific locations popping up in the story, I thought it might be interesting for you guys to see where those locations actually are. More of a in-depth look rather than a big picture look that the original map gives you.
And of course, Nai was up to t...

Normally, when I do rewrites, I will keep going with the scene I’m on and then decide afterwards. It’s surprising how things change once the whole scene is written! But something just wasn...

We're FINALLY almost there! New merch incoming soon!
We've managed to create some fun new designs and we made the choice to switch from Redbubble to Spring for our POD merch, which we *think should* work out a little bit cheaper to buy all your favourite #wayhavenwares

Irritation prickles through Mason, but he holds it in through a crunch of his teeth. 2024-01-17 14:38:16 +0000 UTC View Post

Thought it was finally time to get The Facility’s common room down onto paper! It features so much during the books that it’s nice to see it visually instead of just in my head.
