I finished my next big piece! This is a revamped version of a piece I did a number of years ago for the grand opening of Ravio's shop for heroes! I included some detail shots including a cameo by our favorite little hero in the green tunic.

I really wanted to make this poster look old and like it's been around the block a couple times. Something that a shop owner would put up on a wall in Kakariko Village. This was also my first deep dive into some real digital painting using watercolor and sponge brushes.

I'll probably be making some prints of this in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

🌟This is what I do! ☝🏼 Wanna work together? DM or message me through my site!

Radio City Music Hall opened on December 27, 1932—the first building in Rockefeller Center to be completed. It was a glamorous evening, with hundreds of celebrities. On the left are Tammany Hall boss John F. Curry and his wife, and on the right are Nelson Rockefeller, Mrs. Raymond Hood (wife of the architect), and Mrs. S.A. Rothafel (wife of the theatrical impresario Roxy Rothafel).

Crafting The Perfect Opening

Don’t forget our Grand Opening Giveaway starts February 1st/24 on Tumblr, Instagram and slayingfiction.com! You don’t want to miss it! Happy Writing!

How to Write a Compelling First Chapter in Your Novel Hello, aspiring novelists! The first chapter of your novel is crucial. It’s the gateway to your story’s world, the first impression on your readers, and the hook that keeps them turning the pages. Crafting a compelling first chapter is an art, and today, we’re diving into the secrets of making your opening chapter not just good, but

unforgettable.

Start with a Bang, Not a Whimper

Your opening lines are the most powerful tool in your arsenal. They should be intriguing, clear, and set the tone for your entire novel. Whether it’s an action-packed scene, a puzzling mystery, or an emotional narrative, start with something that immediately grabs the reader’s attention.

Introduce Your Main Character

Early in the first chapter, introduce your protagonist. Give your readers someone to root for, empathize with, or be intrigued by. This doesn’t mean you have to reveal everything about them right away, but offer enough to build a connection with your audience.

Establish the Setting

The setting is more than just a backdrop; it’s a character in its own right. Use your first chapter to give a vivid sense of place. Whether it’s a bustling city or a quiet village, the setting can set the mood and give context to your story.

Set Up the Conflict

A novel is nothing without conflict. Your first chapter should hint at or directly introduce the central conflict of your story. It’s what will drive your plot and keep readers engaged, wondering what happens next.

Create Questions and Curiosity

Leave your readers with questions. This doesn’t mean you should be vague or confusing, but rather, plant seeds of curiosity. Make them wonder about the characters’ pasts, the nature of the conflict, or the direction of the story.

Establish Your Voice

Your narrative voice should be distinct and consistent from the start. Whether you’re writing in first person, third person, or even second person, the voice should fit the story and be engaging to your readers.

Avoid Information Overload

Resist the urge to explain everything in the first chapter. Exposition is important, but too much can overwhelm or bore your readers. Feed them information gradually and naturally as your story unfolds.

End with a Hook

Your first chapter should end with a hook that makes it impossible for the reader to not turn the page. This could be a cliffhanger, a surprising revelation, or a deepening of the story’s mystery.

Conclusion

Writing the first chapter of your novel is both a challenge and an opportunity. It’s your chance to make a great first impression and set the stage for the story to unfold. Use these tips to craft an opening chapter that captivates, intrigues, and promises an unforgettable journey for your readers.

Remember, every great novel starts with a single chapter. Make yours count!

It's The Final Countdown!

🎶 beenee new new... beenee new new new....

Today is the last day to enter your application!! Tomorrow, on Christmas day I will be closing applications!!

Because I got so so so many more than I thought I would, I'm going to go with my Plan B on managing them:

Dec. 26, 27 & 28 will be dedicated to sifting through applications and making decisions on who to bring onboard. 29, 30 & 31 will be spent bringing people into the server. On those three days you won't have full access to much, just each other and a few basic discussion channels. Once you get an invite, it'll be good for 1 week! 3 days into that week I'll send a notice to your secondary contact, assuming you handed me one/it works!

On January 1st, everyone gets access to the lore (with the exception of youngans, of course) and they have, ultimately, until the 15th to settle on a character and make their first post.

The roleplay itself starts in the middle, on the 8th, a week after lore access is given.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you again for all your support and how dear you all have been! I never expected so much support, so much interest, so much concern and investment - I thought this would be experimental at best, but it really looks like my sparkling dreams of a true multigenerational/longterm/slowburn wcrp might actually be POSSIBLE.

And no clan would be possible without its members.

Seriously. Thank you.
