Edinburgh | day one
Our first full day in Edinburgh was St Patricks Day Sunday, which I think James had told himself wouldn’t be a big deal in Edinburgh. I, however knew otherwise. It’s a university city and the capital hub of Scotland; not to mention the fact it has lots of incredible pubs to enjoy using on such a day so I knew it would be busy… and that there would be a whole lot of green around.

There were images going around the internet of four versions of the same book cover. In each one there was a lighthouse and a man standing on it, but in the fourth version, the man was gone. There were entire Tumblr blogs and subreddits dedicated to finding out where the Lighthouse Man went.

Artists who admit to not knowing small details about their characters and worldbuilding have inadvertently given better advice than any character design post on social media tbh. as fun as it is to come up with what your guys would order from a restaurant or the contents of their backpack or their favorite color I've run into very few people who can leave that stuff in a story (or even leave it offscreen as paratext) without it being distracting and poorly written because it's rarely in service of the narrative. a lot of that is def just down to personal taste, but it feels more like designing characters for a TTRPG

i loveee character-driven stories, what’s the plot??? doesn’t matter, give me 5 pages of a character’s internal conflicts, describe their emotional state and tell me about their feelings in details, also 20 pages of the characters relationship with each other, a chapter of the character’s backstory, tell me how they think, tell me their opinions and how they live and why the preferred lifestyle

Been a bit tricky with this one. I've rebuilt this page at least six times and it's still not very good, but I might not be able to start again.
I'm building the OFMD album, maybe about 80% of it has been done for ages, but the rest of it just doesn't seem to get done.
I was trying to get this done before the second season starts.
So the question. What's the title for the cover of this album? Blackbonnet, gentlebeard, Our Flag Means Death, something else?
