Update. — 3rd October 2024
Well, helloo. If you're following me and reading this then...you must really hate me for my lack of activity on this blog. I apologise for that. Doing a masters degree really kicks my ass, and leaves me with no time to write. But Golden has never been dead or abandoned, it's very much always at the forefront of my mind.
And, for that pure reason, I know it's a story I haven't been 1,000% happy with so the story is going through some major changes. Probably, the first is that it's being rewritten. A (somewhat) new plot written with whole new software—we're making the move to Twine.
My reasoning; I've spent over a year learning the coding which makes me want to rip my hair out. I get to have a lot more ownership over my work, the customisation options are stellar, and you guys will get to read it for free.
The reasons for rewriting has been because I want to fix the cringey writing from when the story's first demo was released. It's mostly from the earlier chapters, but then the thought of plot changes came to me and I wanted to implement those. Realistically, the majority of what's being rewritten is what I had planned for book two—so I'm just bringing that forward. I'll update the synopsis closer to the release of this rewrite.
The changes (which can be subject to change): I'm getting rid of the university idea (though you can still choose careers that are related to those degrees from the options that'll be given) (e.g., if you liked the nursing student option, then your MC can work as a nurse). I'm thinking that the MC will already know about the supernatural world to some extent—there'll still be a lot of suspense and mystery and things to unravel, that was always going to remain. And, in this rewrite, my thought is that the MC and the gang will be working at a multi-agency organisation — called The Everbrook — where the aim is to bridge the gap between humans and supernaturals. To make the world run smoothly, so to speak.
The ROs are the exact same! No changes to that—the only change is that them and the mc will somewhat know of each other already. The genre is the same. MC is still as they are, a Lehsian socialite with a pretty (yet peculiar) birthmark. The parents will have much, much less of a role, but they'll still be mentioned here and there.
This seems like a load of word vomit, but I feel like these changes will improve the story. I'm hoping that it'll make MC less of a spare part in the story, allowing them to have more autonomy in the supernatural universe, especially with their enhanced skillset.
I've done the customisation in terms of the UI layout for Twine already, and it should be mobile friendly too. With that done, I've started writing and I'm a few thousand words in. A lot of what I've written in the ChoiceScript version can still be used, but also getting back into writing a story from scratch is something I'm looking forward to.
I feel like this is a bittersweet thing because yay to a new and better story, but also the time it's going to take to get it out. I'll debate whether to release the whole ten chapters, or do a few chapters at a time, like splitting it up into chunks (releasing three chapters now, and three chapters later on).
Another reason as to why I've taken so long to mention this, other than learning code and the rewrite, is just the whole process of this being a little nerve-wracking. The whole thought of a rewrite of something I've put so much effort into is scary, but it'll be worth it.
I'll accept any questions you've got, and I'll create an FAQ regarding all of this too. But, most importantly, you're in the loop of how this is progressing. I really appreciate everyone's kind words about this story: loving the ros, re-reading it, still sticking by my writing—it means a lot. So, thank you and I hope the future of this story is what you want and more.
PLANS.
Finish introductory scenes.
Finish chapter one.

this is marisol, a new mc i made to replay golden by @milaswriting!
marisol is a confident go-getter, incredibly intelligent, charismatic, and good at getting what she wants. she's snobbish and highly logical, and doesn't hold a grudge against her workaholic parents— after all, she inherited their ambition and knows you have to make sacrifices to get what you want.

Raini is most commonly on Instagram, posting about her fashions and showing her highlights of the day. She knows she is gorgeous, so why shouldn't she show it all off? Never claimed to be humble x

Update. — 30th October 2024
The rewrite has been going well! It’s a nice thing to say because it feels like I’ve fallen back in love with writing and this story again—as cheesy as it sounds. Whilst I’m still on the introductory scenes, there are four branches for it for each career the mc can have. From that, new side characters have been introduced. Seeing how this story is shaped around this human/supernatural organisation has been interesting, and I’ve enjoyed having the mc be a part of that and have so much autonomy, and not have things practically spoon-fed.
I’ve started adding in some stats too. The personality stats, the ‘work’ stats, and the relationship stats with the ros alongside their descriptions. They’re also the same stats that made me point out how much I hate stats. I know that A is always going to be the most difficult one to befriend, in this rewrite, their sarcastic and prickly personality is the exact same—however, now there’s a much more solidified reason as to why they don’t like the mc. But, despite that, it’s going to be even more fun to get them on your good side (or just…not).
The ros’ career roles in The Everbrook have been planned and confirmed too. I’ll mention their specific roles in due time (probably sooner than later because I think it’s rather exciting and can’t keep my mouth shut. That, and the fact that it’s cool to see how their careers work so well with the mc’s).
Additionally, the chapters have titles now too. It’s such a small change, and something I practically wanted since this story began, but never added them in the dashingdon demo—so now it’ll be available. Alongside a light mode and dark mode, and it’ll be mobile friendly. Whilst my plans are the same as they were a few weeks ago, progress is being made and I think that’s a good thing.
PLANS
Finish introductory scenes.
Finish chapter one.
