The Game Master's Return and Plans for the Blog

Hey loves, I hope I haven't been missed too much. This is going to be a long post just a for warning and if you some how read it all, you have a ton of patience.

First things first, yes, I am in the process of returning to captions. It'll be a gradual process but things have gotten to a point where I feel like I have the time to make them again.

Secondly, I want to take a second to say thanks. I know I do this a lot but I really am thankful for you all. This experience has been amazing and it wouldn't be much without your support. And to everyone who still dropped while I was gone, I really appropriate you taking the time to come here. Whether, it was your first time here or hundred, it was really something to see people were still dropping by even after I had stopped posting.

I also have kind of got a game plan for posting schedule. I've mentioned in the past that I really want a better system then just posting whenever I feel it. I really want like a schedule but to really get it right, I'd have to use the auto post system. Originally, I didn't like the idea of using it just because I felt like it gave off the impression that I was more interested in views then anything but thinking about it, it's more about using it so you girls always know when there should be something new instead when guessing. Right now, I want it to be something like Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I'm thinking Monday just be something random, Wednesday being a mini series and Friday being Hexing House with "commercial breaks" in between episodes for voting. With that though, I want to change how I release series. Instead of all at once I wanna go one cap at a time. This doesn't mean text only sections count. It'd continue up till it got to the end of a cap. This may seem like a strange change but it's mostly to break up longer more singular stories so that they don't feel like all of the same. And this may change as well if content builds up too much. I don't want to be backlogged for the whole year just because of this. I will release more at a time if I have just too much made and want to get it out instead keeping it. This is one of the largest challenges with Hexing House as whole and I know it will be with mini series as well. Honestly, I want to start this soon but gradually. I'm thinking starting next Friday to start having randoms till the next Hexing House is complete and then moving them to Monday and having that on Friday and then adding the Wednesday once I have one ready but we'll see how it all goes. It could take a while before it's in full swing.

This brings me to my next thing, mini series. I want to start working on longer single stories within another series. These maybe five to ten caps all telling one solid story. These maybe things like a group of campers end up on Circe's Island or the story of a recently infected in outbreak trying to control their new urges. Hexing House has really opened me up to trying ideas like this and I think these could really have some fun results.

Lastly, and this is one of the biggest, I want to change how I announce series. Usually, I'm pretty secretive about what I'm working on but I want to start being more open with my ideas. I keep notes when I'm planning a new series or now, mini series and once I start working on said series I want to just post these notes. You can ignore them or you can use them as a reference, I really don't know how they should be used but I think this will help more complex or larger ideas work. Looking back at Utopia, I think it's biggest issue was that I didn't communicate what it was. I think if I had posted the full idea instead of holding it back and expanding it caption by caption, it would have been easier to get a feel for it and could have helped the reader's experience as a whole.

One thing I want to add, requests for any series will be accepted when the notes are released. So, if something seems like something you really like and want to be apart of, then submit that request and I will try to make it happen.

With all that's been said, I want to thank every one again. Below I'm posting the notes to my newest series, "The Park." This has been a series in development for a long time and honestly, I'm really proud of it and I hope you all are as excited for it as I am.

With more love than I can handle,

Ophelia

  1. Welcome back Ophelia! The park sounds awesome. I think I'd like to take my chances at the casino, no way I'd end up in debt.
