A publisher's planning desk, open to anyone
A planning desk for a travel-led adult science-fiction and romantic-fantasy universe. The shelf is stocked with 395 story ingredients from Luke Nathan Hayes' repos, albums and notebooks, each one carrying the source it came from.
No account. No cloud. Projects stay in this browser.
The main sequence
Each stage saves its answers in this browser. You can move backwards, change anything and rebuild the pattern without losing an earlier chapter plan.
Start with what you love. 273 entries from Luke's handwritten worksheets, each tied to the page it came from. Story type, register, intimacy, shape and ending are stocked. Relationships, situations and outside problems sit empty on purpose, because those are the author's to set.
Open Step 1Build the people who carry those choices through voice, history, appearance, desire, contradictions, relationships and consistent facts.
Open Step 2Choose a sourced word-count band or enter your own. Add optional acts or parts above the chapters, calculate scenes and manageable word chunks, then place your saved answers into an editable book map.
Open Step 3The shelf
65 settings, 159 systems, 44 relationships, 55 rituals, 28 mysteries and 44 repeated ideas, drawn from Luke's 132 repos, five albums as i C. infinity, a set of 2019 worksheets and the research behind them. Every entry names where it came from, so nothing on the shelf is anonymous.

This planner maps adult relationships and why intimate encounters matter. It creates labelled blank spaces, consent checks, emotional before-and-after states and story consequences. It does not write explicit scenes.
