An April of Awesomeness (and a poll)!

Before we get started with this post of awesomeness, we want to thank you all for your support and understanding regarding the delayed release. The extra time has certainly given us the chance to create something we hope you’d enjoy—and, in the spirit of complete honestly and full disclosure, I’m going to (temporarily) cast aside my eloquence and restraint, and say: aaaaahhhhhhh we’re all super excited about the release and are dying to know what you think about the new content and shinies and there’s this thing and there’s this other thing and it all happens but nononononooooo spooooilers and eeeeeeeep!!

(Please excuse me for a moment while I adjust my bonnet and regain my composure.)

Ah yes, the update. The hitherto elusive update that, we’re very pleased to announce, will be available in one month. That’s right: 30 more days before you can get some new Regency Love shinies! Being quite the (sometimes rabid) fangirls ourselves, we at Tea For Three Studios know those 30 days might seem like a long time, which is why we’ve decided to put together a month-long series of posts and events to help with the wait, and also to share with you some behind-the-scenes Regency-loving. Here’s what we’ve got planned:

• Tuesday Teasers that contain concept art and some commentary from both Jenny and Melody;
• Friday Features that discuss some of the writing process, as well as some information to put the Regency in context;
• A character reveal of this new gentleman;
• A giveaway to celebrate the release;
• A countdown that comes with a daily surprise;
• A special event on the release day

We hope you’re excited about this, because we certainly are (in an utterly demure, lady-like manner, of course)!

To kick off this April of Awesomeness, we’ve got a poll for you today. When we first started working on some of the minor characters, I put together some profiles to convey to Jenny and Melody what I had in mind for them. I’ll be posting one of these character profiles on Friday 10 April, but I’ll leave it up to you to decide who it’ll be. The options are:

• Mrs Worthington
• Mrs Earlwood
• Harriet Earlwood, the middle of the three Earlwood sisters
• Bessy, your maid

Please cast your vote using the following poll. You have until 8 April to decide.

Meanwhile, we’ll be hanging around on Facebook and Twitter (especially since I have a three-week Easter break to work on Regency Love full-time), so feel free to give us a shout about, well, anything. In any case, you’ll be hearing from us again soon—after all, Friday is just around the corner!

Yours &c,
Samantha, on behalf of the team
