All my life I’ve been a fierce force of imagination, persistence, and hard work: like a dragon hunting for gold. But instead of treasure, I’ve been searching for stories to tell and ways to make an impact.

Born in Belarus, I studied journalism in Bulgaria and worked in marketing in Russia, but storytelling has always been my true passion. I create narratives that allow people to explore fresh perspectives in a safe, immersive way.

As a queer, neurodivergent woman from a patriarchal country, I’m passionate about shedding light on complex topics through my work. Over the years, I’ve designed more than 100 LARP games, written 10+ original tabletop campaigns, and worked as a script supervisor on the short film Mein Name Akim (2024), which tells the story of transgender refugees in Germany.

During my MA in Serial Storytelling at IFS Cologne, I honed my skills across genres, working on solo projects as well as collaborating in Writers' Rooms.

Currently, I’m co-developing a visual novel game with a co-author as a passion project.

Now that I've completed my degree, I’m eager to bring my creativity to TV and gaming, crafting stories in both English and German.

Dragons never stop breathing fire. And neither do I, with an endless flow of ideas and stories I can’t wait to share.

In audio games, players can’t scroll back. 


They can’t “check the log.” They’re usually listening while cooking or commuting, not taking notes like a detective.

So if your story relies on the player remembering a random detail from minute 3 to survive minute 22, good luck. Your plot may be brilliant, but the format will eat it alive.

🐲 Audio narrative design has to support memory.

 Not through exposition dumps, but through systems that anchor recall:
+ Recurring motifs (a phrase, a sound, a location)
+ Audio cues that repeat at key moments
+ Mirrored consequences that call back to earlier actions

💡 These are structural tools, not flavor text. They let players remember without needing a rewind button. Because if your story only works when someone can reread it: you didn’t design for audio. You designed for a book.

#NarrativeDesign #AudioGames #StoryArchitecture

Narrative designer and screenwriter ▶️ Let's create stories that make an impact

If your characters agree too often, something is wrong. 🎬

Harmony might be great in real life (depending on who you ask), but on the page it’s story poison. When everyone shares the same opinion, makes the same choice, or nods politely in every scene… there’s nothing to watch. No movement. No friction. No reason for us to lean in.

Stories don’t run on plot twists alone 👉  they run on pressure.

Tiny disagreements. Conflicting priorities. One person wanting something now while the other wants it later. A silent “no” that derails a plan without a single shout.

Characters don’t need to scream at each other to create tension. 💡 They just need to want things that don’t align. Even slightly. That’s enough to make a scene feel alive.

🐲 So if your dialogue reads like everyone attended the same group therapy and agreed to be mature about it, throw in a value clash. A boundary. A secret. A refusal that doesn’t look like one.

#Screenwriting #Storytelling #GameWriting

I just finished reading HOW TO WRITE A VERTICAL SERIES IN 10 DAYS by Isabel Dréan, and honestly, it exceeded every expectation I had. 💜 

I went in hoping for a few insights.

What I got was a full, practical roadmap: tasks, exercises, industry guidance, and a crystal-clear breakdown of how to actually enter the vertical series world. It's easy to read, but more importantly, it's easy to apply. 🐲 The book basically screams, “Start now,” and as a screenwriter, that was exactly the push I needed.

Now I know exactly how to structure my vertical series portfolio and how to approach producers with my concepts. Huge thanks to Isabel for creating such a sharp, actionable guide: it immediately earned a place on my “write with purpose” shelf.

👉 If you're a new creator or screenwriter who wants a real, practical entry point into the vertical series industry, this book is a must.

#Screenwriting #VerticalSeries #BookReview

Some interactive stories love throwing choices at players like confetti.


A choice here, a choice there: none of them actually do anything, but hey, it feels interactive, right? 

🐲 No.

 That’s writing pretend-agency. It’s a novelty menu. It’s decorating the game with buttons that aren’t hooked to anything. 

Real narrative design is systemic.
👉 Choices should connect to variables that influence:
+ relationships (trust, fear, loyalty)
+ difficulty (risk, scarcity, knowledge)
+ consequences (routes, scenes, endings)
+ pacing (when info drops, when tension spikes)

If your branching doesn’t change the system, it’s not interaction: it’s decoration.

💡 Players don’t remember how many buttons you gave them. They remember how their choice changed the world, the character, or the story’s tone. We’re not designing “options.” We’re designing impact.

#NarrativeDesign #GameWriting #AudioGames

Everyone loves saying “games are the new IP goldmine”, until it’s time to adapt one and suddenly half the story disappears and the other half gets rewritten into something no fan recognizes. 🎮📺


So I wrote about what makes good adaptations work.

How to translate gameplay into story, treat worldbuilding like a character, and keep both longtime fans and newcomers hooked without bending the source material into something unrecognizable.

👉 Game Over for Bad Adaptations 
https://lnkd.in/ejp-QaQF

If you care about storytelling across mediums,  this one’s for you.

#Adaptation #Storytelling #Screenwriting

Open article: Game over for bad adaptations by meer.com

Let’s be honest, most early world-building documents look like Pinterest boards in disguise. 👾 

Pretty aesthetics. Moody adjectives. 

But in audio games, vibes won’t save you. 👉 Rules will.

If the player can’t predict how the world behaves, they can’t make meaningful choices.

And if they can’t make meaningful choices… well, what are we even doing here?

Strong audio world-building isn’t about lore dumps: it’s about systems thinking:

🧩 Consistent logic
 Magic works the same every time.
 Social rules don’t change based on a writer’s mood.
 Danger has clear signals that the player can learn.

🔊 Predictable sensory cues
 A sound has a purpose. A silence has a consequence.
 The player should learn the world’s language without needing a codex.

👤 NPCs follow world rules too
 If everyone except the protagonist behaves like they’re in another genre, your world collapses faster than a badly mixed audio cue.

🗺️ Boundaries that define possibility
 The world needs limits. What can’t happen is just as important as what can.
Because a world with vibes but no rules isn’t a world. It’s a mood board with dialogue.

🐲 Design your world like a system, and the player will believe in it instantly.

#NarrativeDesign #Worldbuilding #AudioGames

Writers love to obsess over genre:
 “Is it a drama? A thriller? A dark comedy?”


👉 Here’s a secret: your tone decides that long before your logline does.


Take this:
 A couple argues in a car during a thunderstorm.
 💔 In a drama, it’s the last fight before they break up.
 😂 In a dark comedy, lightning strikes right as one says, “At least things can’t get worse.”
 🔪 In a thriller, someone’s bleeding in the trunk and the argument’s just a cover.

Same setup. Totally different story: all because of tone.

Tone tells your audience how to feel about what’s happening, even before the plot fully unfolds. It’s the lens through which they interpret every line, every silence.

🐲 So before rewriting your script for the tenth time, don’t change the plot. Change the tone. Sometimes it's even more effective.

#Storytelling #WritingTips

Here’s something I learned writing for audio: if you build your episode like a typical visual game, escalating scene after escalating scene, your listeners will mentally check out by minute 12.


Why? 
👉 Because audio burns brainpower faster than visuals.
There’s no UI, no map, no screen to anchor attention. Just the player, their imagination, and whatever chaos you hand them.

That’s why audio episodes need chains, not ladders:
🔗 Repeat anchor points
 A recurring sound, phrase, or location the player can “grab” onto.

🔗 Linked beats instead of vertical escalation
 Scene → consequence → micro-turn → reorientation → next link
INSTEAD OF
Action → Bigger Action → Biggest Action → listener meltdown.

🔗 Reorientation moments
 Tiny resets that say, “Here’s where you are. Here’s what changed.”

🔗 A rhythm, not a sprint
The emotional pulse matters more than the scale of the event.

🐲 Because if your episode structure only works when players can stare at a screen, it won’t survive in audio. 

💡 Design for the listener’s brain, not the writer’s adrenaline.

I cried the day I left thousands of Instagram followers behind… 

and started from zero 😭

Yes. Thousands. Gone.

Why? Because my old account… 

let’s just say it wasn’t growing the way I wanted.

I helped  other people’s pages thrive while mine was stuck.

I didn’t know what to post, how to grow, or how to make it work.

So I did the hardest thing ever:

I hit reset.

🚫 Left the old account behind
🚫 No ads, no shortcuts 
🚫 Started from ZERO

Just organic growth!!
And you know what? It worked.

Before I even hit 1K followers, I had a real, engaged, supportive community.

People who actually cared about my content.

People who comment, DM, and celebrate wins with me.

The lesson?

Sometimes your gut is screaming: “Start fresh!”

And holding onto the past is just…

holding you back.

Are you on Instagram? Let’s connect!

Use the link to find me https://lnkd.in/d_p3Bc3d

Let’s grow a community that actually matters, not just numbers.

How to reset your mindset for a new week

(Without falling into the trap of toxic productivity)

Let me be honest…

Some Mondays I feel like my brain is still in Sunday nap mode. 😴

And yet, I see everyone posting, hustling, “crushing goals” 

while I’m over here wondering if making my bed counts as a win.

Here’s what actually works:

✅ Reflect, don’t rush

Spend 10 minutes reviewing last week. 

Wins, losses, and lessons. No judgment.

✅ Set intention, not pressure

Pick 1–3 things that matter most this week. Focus there. Forget the rest.

✅ Move your body, reset your brain

Even a 15-minute walk or stretch session clears mental clutter faster than scrolling LinkedIn feeds.

✅ Disconnect to reconnect

Turn off notifications for a bit. Your brain deserves a soft landing into the week.

✅ Celebrate small wins

Made it through Monday without crying into coffee? That’s a win. 🏆

The goal isn’t to “hustle harder.”

It’s to start the week calm, clear, and ready to create impact.

What’s your go-to mindset reset ritual for a fresh week? Comment below, I want to hear it!

PS: I’m Tiffany, the Social Media Manager you need. 🩷

Follow + turn on notifications for personal brand tips  without burnout.

If your content isn’t converting followers into clients, steal this structure 👀

I see it all the time:

📉 Followers growing

👍 Likes coming in

💬 But no DMs, calls, or sales

Here’s why: your content is missing a simple conversion structure.

Try this:

🔥 Hook: Stop the scroll in the first line

↳Ask a question, make a bold statement, or share a shocking stat

↳Example: “90% of creators are wasting their time on content that doesn’t sell”


📚 Value: Give actionable insights or entertainment

↳Solve a problem your audience has

↳Teach them something they can use immediately


💎 Proof: Show results, testimonials, or examples

↳Share your wins, client results, or even screenshots

↳Helps your audience trust you and your expertise


📣 CTA (Call-to-Action): Tell them what to do next

↳Comment, DM, book a call, sign up

↳Be clear and direct,  don’t make them guess

Extra tips:

↳Mix educate + entertain + promote

↳Use keywords & hashtags for discoverability

↳Engage with your audience before posting

Visibility isn’t just content, it’s connection.

Follow this structure, and your followers stop being numbers,  they become clients, opportunities, and revenue💰

I rewrote one client’s About section, and their DMs tripled in a week 🚀

When my client first reached out, their LinkedIn profile looked… okay.

But here’s the problem:

👀 Their About section was vague. 

🤔 It didn’t tell people why they should work with them.

💬 And most importantly, they were attracting the wrong audience.

They were frustrated. 

Posting consistently, sharing content, engaging… 

but nothing was converting.

They kept asking: “Why am I putting in all this work and getting nowhere?”

That’s when I stepped in.

I spent time:

✅ Understanding their goals and ideal audience

✅ Rewriting their About section to speak directly to the right people 

✅ Highlighting their unique value in a way that’s clear, confident, and compelling

Result? Their DMs tripled in just one week.

They were finally attracting the people they wanted to connect with 

and opportunities started showing up without chasing them.

Here’s the truth: Your profile is the gateway to your opportunities.

If it’s unclear, even your best content can go unnoticed.

If you want your LinkedIn profile to work as hard as you do, comment “Profile” below. 

I’ll send you a free audit and show you exactly what’s missing.

I’m not a big girl 😭

Recommend me for Social Media Manager roles 😅

Just a small girl shooting her shot 🫶

You never know who might see this! 👀

Let me tell you a little secret…

I’ve spent years helping brands, creators, and founders:

↳Turn social media into a magnet for clients
↳Create content that actually converts
↳Build visibility, trust, and authority

Every brand, every page, every creator has potential.

Sometimes it just needs the right strategy, the right messaging, and yes… a little magic. 

It’s Social Saturday! 

Here’s a fun game for everyone:

If you know you’re not a big boy or girl but want to pitch yourself, do this:

↳Say your name
↳Say your role
↳Say what you want
 
all in the comments….

I’ll be reading every single one, connecting, cheering, and celebrating your energy.

Because you never know who is watching 👀 and what opportunity is waiting for you.

And here’s the real truth, social media works best when you support each other, not just post and ghost.

So let’s connect, engage, and celebrate wins together! 🎉
