Fortunately there are a bunch of other games I also play, so I still have that outlet, and I've been planning on chatting more about that, but I really struggle at times with Bluesky's character limit. I like to ramble. Here I can. So, hi everyone. Nice to meet you. If you know me from Bluesky then this was probably a little boring to you, sorry. There will be more interesting stuff to come. Like snippets from the Lockwoods, and I'll put a link post up each week if you're interested in reading the stories.

Today and tomorrow I’ll work out which time period I’m going to start each arc in. I’m still planning on writing first person, because I was enjoying that a lot. While I’m writing I’ll share some snippets here, because I really miss that, and keep my fingers crossed I’ll have my PC back soon.

Next month there will be more daily updates, rather than having one at the beginning and one of the end. Possibly not tomorrow, unless I start doing evening updates rather than morning ones.

This also gives me time to play around on the iPad to see if I can use it to post normally, or if I’m going to need to work out another option, especially as I don’t know how soon I’ll have access to anything else. I miss my version of normality. Eventually I’ll be able to recreate it, but I don’t quite know when, and I really can’t assume anything at this point.

However I’m only really planning a few months ahead at the moment, because with the changes it’s really the only option I have right now. So, I’m starting with June, July, and August, before moving forward, depending on how those three months work out. Keep your fingers crossed for me it’s going to be easier than the last few months were. Good luck would be really nice right now.

I’ve got three to start, I want to get the first chapters for all of them written to make it easier, and then continue on from there. However it’s really hot right now, so writing isn’t the easiest of things to do. So I’ve been doing some background work, to get a better idea of what comes next, which needs a little less brain.

The last couple of days weren’t the best for writing, and now the UK is having a random heatwave, but I am finally close to finishing a chapter that really wasn’t working our first time. Now it feel right, and then I’ll do the next one for that arc.

Unfortunately I still don’t know for certain when I’ll be able to share it, due to some plans unexpectedly changing. I’m still hoping for June, maybe toward the middle of the month, although it may end up being July.

Honestly, I don’t have much to talk about, especially as what I can is likely to be spoilers at this point, so I’ll be heading off to write now.

However I am still writing. At least I can still do something, otherwise I think I’d have completely lost all sense of myself, and there will be more than three beginning arcs. I’ve got four planned, but there’s a chance that number will increase, because there’s another couple of possibilities I was thinking of. For now it’s just a thought, but it might be six beginning arcs… or more, because, as I said, the bunnies never stop.

That’s what I’m going to be working on today. I’m hoping to get at least a couple of chapters written. Once things are more organised (fingers crossed that will happen soon, but it’s still complicated) my aim is four chapters a day, with hopes for five.

Only I’m not certain, at this point, what makes the most sense. I do want to start the soulmate arcs, but originally I started Titus and Anne’a story at a different time, which worked for the plans I had back then. Not the plans I have now. Yet I find myself going back to it to see if I can make it work, but I think what I need to do is keep writing what I’m writing to see how things work out, before going from there.

Alongside that I’ll work on the timelines for each of them. There’s one consistency - the arrival of the soulmate. I also have some family trees to create, which will be a little different for every Marren Vale, so there’s actually a lot of background to work on, but that’s just how things are when you have a multiverse like the Lockwoods.

Still got my fingers crossed I can start posting again in June, but that’s still not a certainty.

This is something we’re used to. We know what works and what doesn’t. It’s just when you add in the fact he’s caring for his nan at the same time, who definitely doesn’t understand we’ve been here before, we know what works, and has a bad habit of getting pushy about what she thinks is best… which we both ignore. Everything we’re doing now worked before, so it will work this time. Healing just takes time.
