Stories told a chapter at a time

Each story is a serial with a cover, a trope and a release night. You play the lead’s scenes in your own words; every chapter ends on a line you will want to answer.

Memory

He remembered.

Tell Lucien about your cello lesson on a Tuesday and he asks about it on Friday. Each character keeps what you share with them, and only them.

  • Up to 10 things per character, 40 in the Coven

What they remember about you

Questions, asked softly

Every question
Is it free?

Yes, to begin. Every reader gets 25 messages a day with any character and the first two chapters of every story. The Coven, at $12.99 a month, removes the cap and opens every released chapter.

Who writes the characters?

One author writes the cast, the city and every story. The characters answer you in their own voices, inside the scene the chapter sets.

Do they really remember me?

Yes. Each character keeps what you tell them (up to 10 things, 40 in the Coven), and only that character knows it. You can read and delete every memory.

The door is open.
