Believe it or not, we’re fine. LOL

It honestly just comes down to being busy. Both of us work, so we don’t have quite as much time when it comes to posting here, at least not as much as we used to (we were still in high school when we first started this blog–wild!)

Hopefully, come international writing season (NaNoWriMo lol), we might be able to post a bit here and there. Thank you so much for checking in, though, it’s very sweet. :)

No–no other platforms at all, actually!

We started this blog purely for fun, so we never felt it serious enough to branch out anywhere else. hahaha

I think in whatever context your villain kills your MC’s mom, it’s enough to motivate your MC–or even your villain, depending on what type of personality Tabitha has–into a confrontation. I mean, that would be enough to make me want to throw down with someone. I think we often undermine the reality of our own stories because we know them so well. The things we’ve thought about on repeat and know the ins and outs of will start to seem kind of boring and mild after a while (with some exceptions, of course.) When, in reality, to the outside viewer it may come across as incredibly brutal. I don’t think you need to overthink the cause of the friction and future encounter–you’ve got a good one already!

I do not at all mean this to come across as sarcastic in any way (lol), but in whatever manner this villain “killed” your character’s mother sounds like a great place to start. I obviously don’t know details, though, so maybe the quotes heavily change the context. If you don’t mind sending some more details--about the character, the villain, the circumstance, etc--I’d love to help out more!
