Tinker Tuesday for May 12th, 2026

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service.

"Love" might be ah... bit strong for some of these books. I chose Cup of Gold to start with for instance because I like Steinbeck, and thought it would be fun to do his first novel for the site's first visual novel. But I wouldn't really say that that book is good. (Ambitious perhaps?)

And then since then, the order has been kind of just whatever book I feel like doing next, based on what I'm up for reading and re-reading and re-reading, though biased towards shorter books at first. (Gotta build my way up to doing those long Russian authors.)

And also I guess I've been biasing my selections against books with complex frame narratives or like epistolary-type formats, like Wuthering Heights or Dracula or Heart of Darkness or whatever, since even though those are all books I'd like to do, I want some more experience before figuring out how I'd approach them as visual novels.
