Now that Alain’s Season 4 is out in its entirety, I can finally talk about how thrilled I was to write it! I’d missed my sweet, tragic, plant-loving boy!

This has been my favorite season of Alain so far. The previous three seasons have been romantic and exciting, but there’s always been a power imbalance between Alain and MC. This season, they finally got to address it!

They’re growing together, just like any two people who’ve known each other forever have to in order to take care of themselves and one another. Alain and MC have had a rocky road to happiness. Navigating that takes time and hard work, and very few people get it right on the first try. But MC and Alain want each other’s happiness above all, and they’re willing to do what it takes to be together. Exploring their journey has been such a rich experience. Alain is a character that I love as much as any of my OC’s, and all I want is the best for him.

Season 5 is going to be buckwild, so get psyched! And as always, thank you so much for reading. I love seeing everyone’s responses to the episodes as they come out; each season takes so many hours to write, and knowing that people are enjoying it makes it all worth it.

If you’re not playing Love & Legends yet, now’s a good time to start! The series is wrapping up, which means that you have hours of content to play through with very few “oh crap when does the next season come out?!” cliffhangers to worry about. You can download the Lovestruck app for FREE on iOS, Android, and Amazon!

Ok, Comet’s little top hat and bow tie actually kill me. I love it so much.

Hey, guys! Now that the season is fully released and our adorable babes are married at last, I wanted to let you know that I’m the writer who picked up Jaxon’s S8! I was super, super excited to write his wedding season. Jaxon is one of my favorite characters of the Promise crew, and his relationship with MC is just so pure. It was such a blast to explore his past with Vespira – and to see him off into the future with his new wife!

It was so much fun getting a chance to write the crew. I really adore Starship Promise, and could not be happier to be writing for these amazing characters. I hope you enjoyed reading this season of our favorite bounty hunter as much as I enjoyed writing it, and I cannot wait to see where the game goes from here. 💕

At the beginning of this summer,  @sailorscooby told me that @theivorytowercrumbles would have to step away from writing Altea Bellerose for Love & Legends. Ivory is an incredible writer, and they’ve done an amazing job of writing Altea as a complex, lovable, tenacious, brilliant little pink wizard over her first six seasons.

I was excited and just a little nervous when Scoob asked me if I would be interested in taking over Altea’s route moving forward. I know how much Altea means to fans, and Ivory’s writing has set the bar pretty high. But in the end, I was too excited for this fantastic opportunity to let my nerves scare me off. I’m delighted to announce that I wrote Altea’s Season 7!

I’ve worked with Ivory and Scoob to make sure that I stay true to Altea throughout this transition. I’ve loved getting to know her better through this process, and I can’t even tell you how much fun I had writing her family this season. The fact that I happened to start on this particular season was great because I’m fluent in French, so I had a blast peppering that into the script as the ladies explored Eclaciel. Thanks again to Scoob for trusting me with the world’s sweetest magical girl. I’m incredibly proud with what the Lovestruck team has created with Altea’s seventh season, and I hope that all of you have a great time traveling with her to Eclaciel! Happy playing!

it’s august 30th, which means both reiner and diego’s latest lovestruck seasons have wrapped. which also means – at last – i get to talk about writing them!

i enjoy writing diego in general, but i have a soft spot for this season of his route. it’s one with a lot of firsts – we finally get to meet eva, and diego and MC finally really start seeing the world as a couple. i’m from the LA area and i miss living there a lot, so it was a bittersweet nostalgia trip to take them to places like hollywood boulevard and rodeo drive. if i’d indulged myself, some of those episodes would’ve been twice as long. thankfully for you, that’s why i have producers to get me back on track.

i also thought it was cute that they ran into reiner in chicago, and the two routes i handle got to intersect for a minute. i’ve been a fan of games a lot longer than i’ve made any money at writing for them, so i know headcanons and fan theories keep the wheels turning. my attitude is “the more the merrier” – they get people talking, and there have been some funny fan responses to lovestruck’s crossovers and easter eggs. how much is everything connected in the “lovestruck extended universe?” i don’t know! i’m not bluffing because of NDAs, either. it’s all what you make of it.

all i’ll say about how the season ends is that it’s some of the most gratifying work i’ve done for lovestruck so far. i won’t tell you what happens – i think most of you can guess – but i really, sincerely hope you enjoy it. it’s been a labor of love.

i’m talking about diego a lot here, but reiner deserves an honorary shoutout as well. if you follow my other work, you know i like power, intrigue, and resistance plots, and reiner’s route has let me do all three over the course of the war. honestly, i’ve been spoiled with everything lovestruck has given me. i don’t know where they’re going next, but i hope you’ll be along for the ride.

now go read! 🦇
