Thank you Kim! 🥰❤️Hope some of those ideas inspire you.
awesomeness! 😗
That's because the article will only drop tomorrow, 12PM, CET. The link will become active then, so stay tuned! 🥰❤️
I wrote an article in which I break down how I built "PROMISE" & "PAYOFF" for 2 of my most popular stories.
(+ I discuss how authors like Sanderson, Martin, Rowling & Pixar writers do it).
It'll drop tomorrow 12 PM (CET) on my Patreon & will be free for everyone!💙📚

Thank you kindly for all your amazing support! 🥰🖤
Super awesome to meet you.
Btw, your game seems right up my twisted sci-fi alley. 👀
I wasn't always a full time #author with several successful books in print. (1/11)
Truth be told, I failed 100x more than I succeeded.
But some of the projects I worked on have paved the way to the artist and writer I am today.
Here's a quick timeline of some of my projects:
I am no Tolkien whisperer, but I have enough faith in the man to feel FH's statement "Beware of charismatic leaders. They are bad for ur health" wasn't wasted on Tolkien. He wrote extensively on the theme of "corruption" (of nature, values & the human heart). Reckon it was the "faith as weapon" bit.
Aye. I was just about to iterate this very idea. I reckon the true answer - though we may never know it - lies somewhere along the line of "faith being used as a weapon of corruption", which might've hit too close to home for a pious writer like Tolkien. His personal dislike might've come from this.
This is a bit of a conundrum for me as well. I've always wondered why Tolkien disliked Dune with such intensity. Perhaps he was afraid readers would cheer Paul's ascension to power.
Both LOTR & Dune are vastly different works with different styles, themes & intents. Both are literary masterpieces.🖤
Disco Elysium soundtrack = true masterpiece. Music for those of us with vast oceanic souls. 🖤
What is Louise Blackwick up to these days? - doing a book signing tour - writing “Vivian Amberville - The Empire of Sand” - Writing, filming, starring & editing a soon-upcoming Youtube show where I meet interdimensional versions of yours truly. - publishing weekly articles on “Jungian Writing” & “Adapting screenwriting techniques for Literature” on my Patreon (thx for 10K members btw!) - expanding my IPs to the film & videogame industry - prototyping a wee videogame - prototyping a Vivian Amberville D&D game - networking & meeting all you wonderful, beautiful, lovely beings! \^,^/
My dear Bluesky family,
I haven't been very active on social media b/c of doing a slew of creative cool things
A lot of these projects are new, ambitious & cosmically terrifying. They give me terrible anxiety, but also make me come alive. Here's a few:
I'd love to hear what y'all have been up to🥰
I'll be attending both #INDIGO (Rotterdam, NL) & #Gamescom (Köln, DE) this year. Come by & say hi!
If you love either #books or #videogames, or are working in the game industry, I'd love to have a chat & exchange notes.
For Gamescom, I'll be around the place Thursday 27 Aug. Hope to see you there🥰
My fellow Weavers & Chaos Weavers, This February, we finally wrap up filming "Louise Blackwick vs. the Algorithm" - a funny, tongue-in-cheek Youtube show where I meet versions of myself from parallel realities. Editing & post-production will behind shortly. Hoping you'll tune in when it's out! 🥰❤️

Few people know this, but I'm also trained as a linguist in Old English, Norse & Proto-German. I also speak Dutch, French, Swedish & Finnish.
This expertise has led to me crafting 9 fictional languages for my epic fantasy series, Vivian Amberville.💙📚
How has your background shaped your writing?🙃
I had an amazing day on set today. 🥰 We just wrapped up filming episode 9 & we are prepping to shoot the 10th (and final) episode.
In season 1, I got to meet my interdimensional doppelgängers & explore the vast fantasy world of my novels.
I can't wait to unleash this wacky show upon the world! 💙📚
That's beyond awesome! Congratulations on the new game release! 🥰🎮
It's out!
The full version of Paddlenoid is now available on Steam!
Get sucked into a dark sci-fi story while playing a perfectly innocent block breaker 😇
I hope players have as much fun playing it as we had developing it!
