It's time: The "Damsel in the Red Dress" 1 Year Anniversary DTIYS + Q&A info

[applebun]

literally just made an account and have no idea how to do this but here goes I guess… (had to crop the picture so it fits…)
btw I don’t really read novels on here and much less so romance novels, but Damsel in the red dress got me HOOKED. I read like half of it yesterday alone. Still have quite some chapters to go, so this is inspired by the first arc of the story because even though I thought “let’s finish the novel and then draw”, my inspiration said “NO you have to do this RIGHT NOW”.
So here we are. I hope you like it.

Oh MY goodness! this is stunning! thank you SOOO much I love it. Oh, but as far as sizing is concerned, you can use canva to resize an image so you don't have to crop out any of your hard work

[applebun]

OMG!!! I’m SO glad you like it!!! And you replied so fast too! I’ve actually been lurking around the forums a lot for writing advice, and you always seemed like a nice person and your characters were SO interesting, I’m really hyped I even get to “meet” you lol
sorry if I’m not making any sense, I’m just an introverted little goofball that gets too excited when people actually talk to me

[Leyelle]

Xd, no problem. You make sense to me so don't worry about it. Goofballs are some of the most fun people to hang around imao. And thank you very much for the compliments. I appreciate it xd

[applebun]

Alright, here’s the full picture!

Thanks so much again!! I was worried I might have made her not short enough, or not brown enough, or not chubby enough, or not curly enough… or just not enough, period. But since you like it, I guess it’s fine!!
As for the Q&A, I will return when I’m finished with the novel lol
Editing this because tapas isn’t letting me reply anymore: unfortunately I don’t have an ig account because my phone has the quality of a potato rn and my tablet isn’t technically mine… but if you want to share it you can use my tapas name, I’ll be delighted either way

[Leyelle]

I think you did great. And her dress design is so cute. I love it. Also do you have an it where I can tag you when I share the entry?

[applebun]

Looks like it’s finally letting me reply again. I’m done reading so far and ready for the Q&A!!
My question would be, are Andrew and Jinho really just “business partners” or is there something more to them?
Also, what did Aunt Miguelina do? Or was that already explained and my brain was just too tired to understand?
Oh, I almost forgot: what does Alicia’s and Melissa’s infamously atrocious taste in clothing look like?

[Leyelle]

Ooh, one of those questions is kind of a spoiler, but I can definitely answer two of those. As for Tia Miguelina, it wasn't explained in detail, so that will be explained later, don't worry,

[applebun]

I’m back with more questions, for the characters this time!
Melissa, what is your favorite Jewish holiday?
Kattar, have you ever tried Korean food? If so, which dish is your favorite?

[Leyelle]

Ooh, good questions I'll sure to have the cast answer these

[Leyelle]

Just a reminder that there is a little more than a month left for this challenge!

[MelancholicOtaku]

The colors just scream fall to me

[Leyelle]

makes sense since Alicia is an autumn baby

[Leyelle]

Approximately 1 month left for this challenge!:

[Leyelle]

Yes, you can do that! Thanks!
