Twisted Mind is now going to be renamed to 'A NOT so Dark Story' as of March 28th, 2026. 
          	
          	It may sound a little silly, and I promise that is completely intentional! Twisted Mind does sound really cool, though I've come to realize that there are quite a few books and stories with that same title, and it doesn't feel entirely original for the story I want to make. A NOT so Dark Story feels a little more unique in the perspective that it has a better-fitting tone for the story that is in progress. A book cover will be on its way soonish, as I'm working hard on multiple aspects of this adventure simultaneously. 
          	
          	Another side update to give a taste as to what this Choose Your Own Adventure will be like, all Markiplier egos (50+ of them, hoping I'm not missing any), as well as a few special acting-role characters, will be featured within the adventure! Similar to that of Heist, you will be able to meet, work with, assist, hunt down, and more with these characters! Though they will remain loyal to the lore that already exists, there will be some fun additions to their characters as well as the settings they are placed within to make the experience more engaging. 
          	
          	Hope you all are well, and Happy Saturday (or Sunday)!

For those who are following me to read "Twisted Minds", it is now undergoing a thorough rewrite as several changes have been made to the story to the point that it is going to be renamed and reformatted to better fit its new content. The story of Twisted Mind is no longer going to be following a specific established character. Rather, it is going to be a Choose Your Own Adventure where you the viewer will be making simple, complex, morally ambiguous, and other interesting choices that will effect how you read the story. 
          
          Though it may feel sudden, the original content will still remain while adding on new concepts. Darkiplier will still be featured as the main antagonist of the story, there will still be complex and impactful psychological horrors portrayed within the story, it will still be considered a science fiction. I believe this decision is for the best as I feel the story being written this way will not only be more impactful and fun, it will be more enjoyable to write. 
          
          The original prologue will remain as it is still apart of the rewrite, but the title AND the cover may be changed overtime. I will create another announcement once these changes do occur. 
          
          As for one final closing note, if you have any suggestions for this Choose Your Own Adventure, please be sure to do so! I would love to hear ideas from the community as I want this to be more than just another story. Anything is welcome. 
          
          Thank you all, and I'll be sure to update you soon!

As a side note for those who enjoy purely original works, I will be creating character designs for some of the ego's that will be featured within this story. They aren't redesigns, very light ones if anything, and more or so to give you all a visual of these characters in a way I personally interpret them to look like for this story. A drawn book cover will also be on the way, as well as some sketches and doodles as I go through this lengthy creative process!
