I must revisit catcake aventurine plot....
I drew catcake!aventurine instead of writing 👉👈 but he likes his rubber duck at least.
If you'd like to see how I formatted that particular flashback scene, I have it broken down over in this thread: bsky.app/profile/semb...
#vemywrites | ✍️Edit/Format a chapter with me!
AKA behold the epic mess of my editlog for a format-heavy scene.

This contains spoilers for a big scene in Ch. 5 of Separate Seasons(☕!🦚🛁). Read only if you want to.

(CW: flashbacks/dark themes)

Start here 🧵→
[As a disclaimer: Coffee AU has most formatting out of all my fics, followed by Repeat Until Death, which was more scene organization heavy (past/future) than identity crisis/dissoc heavy.

There's still a lot of brain power needed, but basically... I've had prior practice, is what I'm saying w
18th Jan Editlog (2) [3/3]

Everyone has their own writing style, and this just happens to be mine!

I don't know if there's any additional pointers I can give, but I hope the editlogs show my general logic while writing scenes like these!

Feel free to drop questions if you have any <3

[END]
18th Jan Editlog (2) [2/3]:
I would consider this scene finished - barring the two teeny bits I'm debating on deleting - so this editlog will end here!

You'll see the final version when the chapter is posted.

I hope the annotations were helpful - it was really fun doing them lmao.
18th Jan Editlog (2) [1/3]:
This is Draft 2 of the same scene (Separate Seasons Ch. 5), about as raw as it can get (i.e. exactly after writing it, zero checks for grammar/vocab/etc).

The word count has gone from 800+ to 1.5k words for the same section.
17th Jan Editlog (1):
We're editing the section annotated in *black* (Pic 1). This is the *rough draft*.

To help visualize, I've annotated the parts in Pic 2. Read L→R, up to down.

(You will need to zoom 🙇‍♀️!)

It makes me happy to know that people are getting inspired to write their own fics, modifications present or not 🫶 Play around with it as much as you like, go wild, be comfy, and I hope you have fun ❤️
Hewwo Anon! Thank you for the question, and I'm glad you've enjoyed the SBverse so much 🫶

I'm not finicky about the crediting, but if you'd like to do it you can just mention the verse or boop the link of the ref guide - but only if you want to! Feel free to modify it to whatever you're comfy with!
Our cat walks into the house with a goldfish in her mouth and circles rhe dining table and living room in search for my mum (she's not home).

She circles back to the closed door.

Cat looks at me, I look at her. *muffled meowing; mrfowf*

I open the door. She walks out, goldfish still in mouth.
bonus: 🦚 ends up training 🥮 to spot/identify genuine gems/precious metals. Sometimes there will be two of them sitting with him at his workbench, one on the table, another on his lap. The third sits next to the register in the store and MEOWS very loudly when someone comes in.
aka I need more of them in a steampunk setting.
that he decides to keep them around as pets in his antiquities store. They're surprisingly affectionate and possesses some type of sentience that has 🛁 curious, so he visits them often to study them. 🥮 are naturally pleased with the arrangement.
#ratiorine

Antique dealer!🦚 acquires three odd steampunk-esque creatures (read: catcakes 🥮) and asks math prof!🛁 if he can fix them for him, bc 🦚's mending/polishing skillset is limited to on jewelry/accesories. 🛁 fixes them, and 🦚 imprints on them so hard →
My grandmother used to embroider with gradient floss cut to sections of colour changes. I think 🤔 I'm understanding the technique. Maybe.

There's definitely a trust the process moment and I suspect once the entire work is complete, the effect will be pretty subtle, but I like it.
Amidst writing, I have started a new embroidery project, because I have no self control and operate the best when juggling multiple hobbies at once.

Fish! (Well, arowana.)

#vemyembroiders
I currently have no plans to write a separate in-play POV for primaries; secondaries! What I have planned in the outline is pretty plot-heavy, but there *should* be some discussion of plays on d0m's side in the next chapter! 🫶

In-play d0m POV would be content for a different fic methinks 🤔
Happy New Year ✨✨✨ I'm definitely cooking up chapters... multiple of them 😂 Trying to get them ready to be posted as soon as possible, expect multiple updates this month LOL
I'm grateful for all the supportive people in my life. Thank you for being here, and thank you for seeing me ❤️

To more exciting (but not too much lmao) adventures (real or otherwise fictional) in 2025!!!✨ - Vemy ❤️
Happy New Year ✨ Did you know that 2025 is a square rootable year? ❤️

2024 was a wild year. I boothed at an event with the besties (🫶🫶🫶love y'all), wrote a coffeeshop AU on existentialism (lmao), got my PhD and moved back home.
Most likely scenario is that I'll do a very small print run (~10 copies or more depending on demand), and giveaway/sell the remain copies at production price 😅.

Alternatively I might put up print-ready copies of my books on ko-fi at the minimum price for those who want to diy!
