My current work-in-progress is a continuation of the Beyond Androva series with book two: Engraved in Magic. Although Matched in Magic's ending definitely wasn't a cliffhanger, there are a few in-progress elements that I intend to develop during Serena's and Art's next adventure. Art is taking over the role of narrator this time. He and Xytovia both have a lot to figure out, and that’s without the added complication of a new villain. So far, the story is going well, but of course nothing is happening the way I expected! If you’ve seen any of my other posts about writing, you’ll know I’m not a plotter—though I wish I were.

I put together a new aesthetic this weekend to help me organise my ideas about the story and the look and feel of Xytovia. The purple trees show up again, as you can see, and my characters also discover a new kind of magical symbol. Its purpose is linked to an interesting (and potentially dangerous) time in Xytovia's history from before the war. I hope you enjoy the pictures, and thank you very much for visiting my blog today ☺️.
