Morena Maai also sent me a version just with Vivian Amberville and Kaap. She added all the other characters in a later build. Shared here with her expressed permission. I reckon she really captured the essence of the book characters, especially book2 💙📚 #vivianamberville #fantasybooks #bestsellers

Welp, every now and again, if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing... 👀💙📚 #writing #epic #darkfantasy #cosmichorror #timeloops #pocketrealities #magicsystems

When someone says “Vivian Amberville”, as a book series, they generally think of 5 things:

1. They think of intricate TIME LOOPS that fold time and space into impossible shapes;

2. They think of POCKET REALITIES, such as liminal spaces and cosmic backrooms, where time is both instant and infinite;

3. They think of reality-warping COMPLEX MAGIC SYSTEMS where different characters can fold, twist, bend, loop or even cut the very fabric of REALITY itself;

4. They think of a dense, TAPESTRY-LIKE PLOT supported by a huge cast of characters, each with their own unique character arc;

5. and finally, they think of eldritch creatures from the abyss of reality, which adds certain elements of COSMIC HORROR to the narrative.

That's actually a brilliant way of writing compelling "villains/antagonists". Dehumanizing them too much makes for a flat, unidimensional character. Seeing them as extremely flawed, shadow-possessed or embittered humans is the better approach. Your Audrey seems like a highly compelling character!😅
