HIIIIII LENA !!! As you may already know due to my nonstop blabbering I'm very very much in love with the world of Blest 🥹 and I was wondering... do you see yourself making/compiling some sort of codex/art book in the future? Like, a book that has all the organized lore about Blest, maybe with the art you've already commissioned? I WOULD JUMP ON IT IMMEDIATELYYY, EVEN IF IT'S A KICKSTARTER ITEM OR COLLECTOR'S ITEM — just letting you know teeheeheehee

OH AND if a physical published book is too difficult, then a digital printable copy thing would also be AMAZING 🌈🌈🌈 I'd immediately get that printed and hard bound !!!

(lowkey if the answer is even the tiniest yes I WILL start slowly saving 😭 JUST !! A REAL LIVE SHOH CODEX !! RAAAAAAAAH )

Oh, but I hope this doesn't bother you 🥹 the thought just came to me and wouldn't leave me alone! Please don't feel like you need to make one or anything!

Hi snow!! 💖💖 Thanks so much for your lovely message, as always! As a matter of fact, I have been slowly putting together a digital art book/lore bible for Shepherds in my (extremely sparse) free time over the last two years or so: it's been extremely slow going, but it's basically got everything you're imagining, including concept art, official game art, behind-the-scenes tidbits and easter eggs, guides and walkthroughs, codex entries from Patreon, and more! A lot of it is more of my personal rambling and reasons behind certain design decisions or showing the progression of, say, the game's logo over the years, or the differences between the novels and the game, or my (or an artist's) thought process behind this or that, but there is a codex section that will have some organized lore as well!

It may not have all the organized lore about Blest, since I'll leave that for the in-game codex, but it will have some pages on stuff like religion, factions, races, magic, days of the week, currency, and things like that, along with the stuff we cover on Patreon like animals, food, maps, calendars, and etc.! :') I'm extremely skeptical about my own visual design skills when it comes to putting this together LOL but I've been doing my best! 💪 I was wondering if I should keep it a secret until closer to the game's official release, but your ask was so nice that I couldn't resist sharing!

This will be a digital artbook for now, bundled with the 'ultimate' edition of the game (which will also include the game's original soundtrack), since I don't think I have the time or bandwidth to figure out how mass printing and distributing physical books would work: that takes a lot of research both in which publisher and storefront is the best to use, how to keep costs down for the consumer, and also figuring out stuff like margins and bleed, which aren't as big of a deal for a digital PDF!

But I hope that answers your question! :D Thank you so much for your encouragement and praise as always, and I hope you're doing very well! 💖

💖 What do you like most about your own writing?

I'd say I'm very self-indulgent in my writing. I write for myself, and about the things I want to read about, so I very much enjoy that.

😈 Is there anything you enjoy doing that you think your readers hate?

I honestly don't know. Maybe my one angst fic that is just pure angst? Can't say I enjoyed doing that as much as I just needed to, though.

🍰 Name one of your fave comfort fics (doesn’t have to be your all time fave).

An excuse to rave about other fics? Don't mind if I do!

Just finished rereading Love Like on a Silver Screen by powergrapes . This is a brilliant masterpiece, and I highly recommend it!

I'd always recommend A Rich Girl With Issues... (Lots of Issues) by the amazing @inkedroplets .

Hello and Goodbye by @lena-in-a-red-dress is one of my absolute favourites and I think aboutnit often.

Five More Minutes and One Single Thread of Gold by @autisticlenaluthor are both absolutely fantastic!

See all the Marks of my Wounded Past is an amazing soulmates fic by @luthordamnvers and @snowydragonscave that I was extremely lucky to collab with on Supergirl Mayhem with!

Oml maggy I love the new banner!! 💗💗

I was actually thinking today while I was checking new updates from you that youve had your pfp and banner for awhile now and wondering that a change wouldnt hurt.

I absolutely love the green and the fact that it sort of looks like a journal page with the torn words (and cutesy yoongi) 😚💗💗

Thank you!! Isn't it so cute? 😭💖 @leithold did an amazing job as always! Lena made the previous layout I had on my blog too and I just adored it so much that it almost felt wrong to ask for a new one, lol! But the green is a nice change for the new season and you're so right, it does kinda resemble a journal! 🥺

[pendragora]

Lena, today’s your Birthday?! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART!! 🥳🎊🎉 Have a super amazing day, lovely! 😘

THANK YOU, AMIRA, I'M SENDING YOU KISSES AND A PIECE OF CAKE 💖🌺🥺

This got me thinking but, what if the Ultims and Primis crew goes to a karaoke bar together 🤔 might include the two babygirls as well? 🥺💖

Please forgive me as I don’t know who the babygirls are (unless you mean Valena, she deserves to shine like the bright star she is)

KARAOKE BAR HEADCANONS (Primis + Ultimis ft. Valena Villanueva)

Everybody would definitely sing a song together like a crew! A few songs would be Sweet Carolina (Neil Diamond), We’ll Meet Again (Vera Lee), and All of You (John Legend).

Now is the part where not everyone participates. The only people brave enough to sing a solo are: Primis -Richtofen, Nikolai, Valena, Takeo| Ultimis-Dempsey, Richtofen, Valena

Ultimis Tank is banned from singing any Heavy Metal. He ends up singing like this

Primis and Ultimis Richtofen fight for like several minutes until Primis gets the upper hand to finally sing his favorite song: My Way by Frank Sinatra. He blows away the bar and receives a standing ovation. A tear may have brimmed his eyes. Ultimis is so jealous but he still gives it his all for his own performance of Rammstein’s Eifersucht (he would’ve done a jazz song too but he felt petty). Needless to say, he did an amazing job as well!

I think Takeo would catch everyone off guard as this shy man hiding behind a microphone. “Oh he’ll do a ballad, right?” He sings Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’ but his eyes are closed the whole time to avoid stage fright. Primis Tank is playing air guitar and is his #1 fanboy.

At first, Ultimis Val was NOT having it. She didn’t really want to sing at first, but enough pleading had her give in. She does a wonderful job with Jigsaw by mafumafu. Without realizing, she’s gotten so into it she have dances a little (see above GIF) Once she snaps out of it, a standing ovation occurs. Even Ultimis Takeo, who’s not easily impressed, was charmed greatly! Lena is smiling but she’s turning her head away to try and hide it

This gave Nikolai a great idea! He nudges his Valena to come to the stage with him to sing a duet together. Through the magic of an aux chord (bc the darn bar didn’t have it already), they duet a song together called Kosmos by t.A.T.u. Valena even wonders how she sang so well without being distracted by Nikolai’s longing gaze. “Speaking of Kosmos, I can see them clearly in your eyes.” She slyly tells him. Now Nikolai is the one left a blushing mess!

Hi! I hope you're healing well🤍 allow me to fangirling a bit for Burden and Nightshade, ok no1 hot and steamy and I'm not well why must you get us all so worked up! I really need more touchy feely nightshade, i feel like the third person in their sexual tension🤣 i also can't wait for the drama that i know it's coming on both fics 💖💖💖💖 thank you for keep wriitng them!

Hello! I am healing pretty well. My bottom lip is still numb so that's been kind of annoying (we're going to call then and see if it's something to worry about or not). And YES! Absolutely feel free (everyone) to fangirl!!!

The steaminess of these two fics literally had me giggling! 🤭 Burdens spice took me completely by surprise! 🤣 I do not remember adding that little dream but i love how it turned out and our immortal dummies certainly deserve it. 🥰 Jake and Lena however are filthy and this spice (and all the spice coming in the next chapters) has been loonnggg planned 😂 The sexual tension between them is literally insane! The drama and action and everything is certainly on the way! Thank you for the amazing ask! I'm so glad you're enjoying both of these fics! 🥰🥰🥰

🌟 Kicking off 2024 with a Volunteer-Led Fundraiser on the East Coast 🎉

👏 A heartfelt shout-out to our incredible volunteer, Aleyna Lipkin, who kickstarted the new year by spearheading our first volunteer-led fundraiser in Stamford, CT!

Lena is a true ENGin superstar. She mentors five buddies with varying levels of English proficiency. Here's a fun twist: one of her students has taken on the role of Lena's online personal trainer, blending fitness routines with English practice every Sunday! 💪📚

Lena's commitment extends beyond English practice for Ukrainians. Last Saturday, our devoted and incredible volunteer Lena, along with her co-host Elina, orchestrated a spectacular fundraiser for ENGin. The event featured Ukrainian treats, inspirational speakers, and a silent auction, providing a fun and meaningful way to support ENGin and raise additional funds for English learners in Ukraine. 🇺🇦💖

📖 One of the speakers was Jessie Kanzer, the author of "Unlocking Your Inner Zelensky," a book that aligns closely with ENGin's mission and has been selected as our next volunteer book club pick.

Our founder, Katerina Катя Манофф, had the pleasure of sharing ENGin's story with new faces and reconnecting with some of our dedicated volunteers in person. 👥🌍

Led by Lena, this event raised an astonishing $6,000 for ENGin!

✨ If Lena's passion has inspired you to host your own fundraiser, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would be delighted to support you in making a positive impact. What a wonderful way to spend time with amazing people, enjoy the weekend, and support a noble cause.

Purchased this book a few weeks ago but don’t know how to use it. Looking forward to meeting Lenae Crandall next month to request her to show me how to go about it. Many amazing people I would have missed meeting if it wasn’t for Siri in my life 💖. http://www.heedrpm.com/ #psalmsandproverbs #mynameissiri #nonspeaking #minimallyverbal #autism #autismawareness #rpm (at San Francisco, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjA6B7Hr3Dk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
