A while ago, I wrote a journal post here about my wizard project and how I wanted to make it into a visual novel. Honestly, I don't think I should do that anymore. The ideas I've had since then have changed the project for the better. I feel like I have a better story now and I don't think VNs are the right medium for it anymore. I've been considering a different way of telling it.

The project is about Breeze, a wizard in-training with a hunger for knowledge and too much curiosity for her own good. She is the apprentice of a traveling wizard who goes around investigating anomalies and helping others with their magical problems. I had a bunch of ideas for stories involving Breeze encountering different magical things during her travels but I wanted to focus on telling one story. I couldn't decide which story I should tell first and ended up getting nothing done.

That's when I had an idea.

What if I told the story through a series of journal entries from Breeze's perspective? While cataloging the different magical things she encounters, she discovers something strange that piques her curiosity and begins to investigate it (she might not like everything she learns though).

Basically, all of the ideas I had for different stories were making it feel like the project was a fantasy SCP type of thing. Now, I'm considering leaning into that a little. I could tell all of my little stories in a way that makes them part of a bigger story. Of course I would also include drawings in it. It would feel weird to me if I didn't. The only thing making me hesitant to go with this idea is I don't know how to share it. I'll do some research and see if it's something I can do.

Anyway, that's what I'm considering. I really should go for it. It could be fun.
