The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 18/Nov/2022
🕑 Added 2022-11-18 14:13:01 +0000 UTCSo I started this week determined to get Chapter 20 done.
I knew it was gonna be a serious push, but I was pumped to get it finished.
And I did!
The base writing for Chapter 20 is completed already!!
Not only am I over the moon with getting it finished earlier than expected, but I actually managed to add in an extra scene for each LI scene that varies depending on a certain choice made the MC! And I ABSOLUTELY LOVE them!!
Part of my push was also due to intense excitement because it meant I got to write a couple of majorly emotional scenes I've been waiting actual years to write!! I had, like, a folder of extra notes specifically for these moments that I’ve been writing towards it over the years, hehe :D
It was both amazing and somewhat cathartic to get them out and decide what was going in, what wasn’t, what needed to be adapted to account for unexpected changes in things that have happened over the other books, etc.
I was also really enjoying the differences of the LI’s thought processes depending on who they talk to in the extra scene that I added in.
For example, M is realizing what is going on with their feelings a lot faster in a certain BFF route just because that vampire doesn’t push. Where as in the others it’s not as easy or fast. Just really love being able to have that variation in there!! Takes a long time to add, but so worth it! 'Cause it means you could replay M’s romance and experience it differently even when playing it multiple times!
Nai has also been getting me hyped as she's been working on Nate/Nat's Love Interest trailer for Book Three...oh, it looks so good already... :D
But yeah, it was a serious push this week, but so proud to get that done.
Which means it's only the base writing for Chapter 21 to go! And I am determined to keep it on plan...I'll be working on some editing today and tomorrow, but will be getting straight into the last chapter on Monday!
Obviously there's all the editing, playtesting, beta testing, etc after that, but that all tends to go a lot smoother and faster!
AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

For Update+ this week, a hint that the MC’s blood might not be as easy to deal with as the vampires like to pretend...
-
That's not how it feels now as [Redacted]’s focus zones in on the throbbing beat of blood beneath [Name]’s skin.
It seems to shiver with the power held within.
The taste of it radiating like a sweet aura.
-
Redacted the love interest in this particular scene because we’re jumping close to spoilery territory, so trying to help a little to keep from being too spoilery, hehe ;D
Hope you all have an amazing weekend! We'll be offline as usual, so I'll talk to you all next week <3

I was thinking it was N, as well!
Mia
redacted is totally nate bc i remember you saying on tumblr that the mc smells sweet to him!!

Oh I can’t wait to see how the BFF routes effect the story and the romances! :D
ItaLii
My guess would be N as the redacted LI, out of all of them N seems to have a peculiar intensity when it comes to blood that the other vampires don't have...just sprinkled here and there. Don't think I forgot the little hint at the end of N's route in book 1.

It's not necessarily the key, but M certainly has more room to think about things for themself, which helps them process it faster...not sure I'm explaining that well, but at least you'll be able to get what I mean once you play! :D
Seraphinite Games
I'm buzzing but anxious, but excited but so nervous...it's quite a rollercoaster as we get closer to the end, hehe! :D
Seraphinite Games
It suddenly seems to be speeding along now! :D
Seraphinite Games
It'll be so strange when the writing is done, hehe! :D
Seraphinite Games
I know, right? My nerves are getting more intense as my excitement is too, hehe :D
Seraphinite Games
For me too, hehe! :D
Seraphinite Games
The MC's blood doesn't really affect them except for a few special things, which become more obvious as we go on :D
Seraphinite Games
Thank you so much! The end is truly in sight now :D
Seraphinite Games
It is definitely one of the LI's getting slightly distracted... :D

We're getting professional beta-testers for Book Three this time! Excited to be working with them but nervous as well, hehe :D
EvilChani
That's cool about M. So maybe a specific BFF route is the key to M realizing/having feelings other than horniness before the end of b4 or b5!

I’m so excited I’m gonna cry. I cannot wait ahhhh
Ellie
Sera, I'm so hyped! You guys are doing an amazing job. It feels like Book 3 is coming together so fast.

The Inecksplicable
Aaaaaaah! Getting so close!
Heidi
Hype reaches next level! 🥳
Jason Bond
I am thinking the blood could allow the MC to do all sorts of things that put the MC more on an even level with UB than initially thought, if you allow it Mishka
Maydayknight
🥳🥳 AAAAAAA Congrats that's so exciting!! :D 🤗
Mar
THATS THE LI THINKING ABOUT THE BLOOD?? Oh I am shook!! So close! You’re doing amazingly! So so excited for b3 and the N trailer!

How does beta testing work? Is there an application for those interested or is it just done internally? In any case, super excited for the trailer and seeing Nai’s skills again!!
