Our narrative designer Olivia of the PVKK team said I should post it, so narrative designers can post the "Sicko - YES" meme 🤣 It's a screenshot of the "Sprouty Dialogs" plugin I used. I adapted it quite a lot, but it's cool! 2703

But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning. 3830211039
