a token of kindness [ 18th august 2025, monday ] 
          
          "green and gold, bumblebees and blooms, notorious affairs of the innocent homes; half of wounds are entombed in windy trails, while the remaining lie maimed in terraces aged. 
          
          eye and a wisdom tooth, bear and tear, wavelets of death caressing the feeble veil; garbled silences in pictures hung, hung were the joys of the crusted youth. keepsakes assignable, september — a bright shy; one step of risk, one step of ice. 
          
          cliffs and cuts that swallow the shore, earth is an art with its slinky tides and falling feathers; rhythm and rhyme mold the blood, like granules of sand that recognise a home in your skin. 
          
           liquor and tea, a prison and a poison; every scream becomes a rotten whisper. quite a wonder, the heart one carries with pride, the same which injures the soul — punished with suffocation behind clasping ribs, where it beats and beats, severing its rest."

for tog readers, do you think it would make more sense if wendlyn were a country (and doranelle a city within it) OR if wendlyn and doranelle were both countries (with their respective capital cities) on the eastern continent? because #1 "the city of rivers" and doranelle are labelled separately on the map, and #2 varese is the captial of wendlyn, although I swear doranelle's territory is wayyy bigger. and also #3 if doranelle was just a city in an ashryver-ruled wendlyn, why would maeve be content to rule this tiny chunk of land? thoughts anyone?

@howllog My theory is that Wendlyn is the name of the continent and the country Wendlyn which is on the continent Wendlyn, and Doranelle is another country on the continent of Wendlyn.

@howllog I think it would be pretty cool to see wendlyn and Doranelle as both different countries

Hi, I've wanted to ask how you create your covers for your books? They really do look lovely and interesting. Do you use an app?

@mayamaybe29 hi! sorry for the late reply, sort of taking an indefinite break from wattpad atm - I use canva, found some realistic sketch drawings of what I wanted, chose the bg colour then edited the tones of the images (with filters and whatnot) until the image bg was the same as the actual cover bg... fairly tedious, but it pays off!
