Hello! Tox here. (Formerly Valere)
Firstly, I've recently published the first part in the poetry collection NOX REQUIEM; a set of haikus. I unpublished NOX because i intend to rework everything I've written in it. I'm in a new phase of my life and I'd like to take the time to give more time and thought to each piece I write. I am taking a deeper study into the art of poetry and I'd like to reflect that in my published works. I hope y'all enjoy its spiritual successor!
Secondly, I've got the makings of a prose project in mind! I have been rereading a bunch of old Nancy Drew books I enjoyed as a child, and because I also played a few of the games, one of the books stood out to me as a favorite - The Treasure in the Royal Tower. I love the book, but as an adult now, I wish there was more complexity to it. So I've been filling up a notebook with notes on a potential rewrite for it that would include some of the more complex details from the game, along with a new twist; though I fully intend to keep with the spirit of the story. I'm rarely fond of pointless changes when I read rewrites or re-imaginings myself, but I feel that the few ideas that I do have will keep the story fresh while not veering off course. I'd love to hear some feedback from this idea! Even when this post gets older, I'd love to hear it.
It's lovely to be back!
