Hi everyone,
I discovered Scribus earlier this year and ended up spending half the year inside the interface, and I loved every minute of it.
This year, I also took it upon myself to begin the novelization of the story-driven video games I released in the past (between 2016 and 2022). The first one I did was Catalyst.
Dr. Novak, a psychologist assigned to review a series of recorded therapy sessions. What begins as a routine analysis quickly spirals into delusions, betrayal, and madness.
It's on amazon:
See the book on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1069388416)
Besides the writing and drawing, all the page layout is done directly in Scribus. Here are a few screenshots for anyone who's interested.
There are more screenshots on my website.

All the sketches were drawn in a sketchbook and then digitized. (I also have tons of screenshots of these on my side.)
Following the release of the book, I felt that I wanted to spend more time in that universe (and in Scribus), so I designed a puzzle book that also serves as a tool for psychotherapy in a dark and twisted way.

If you have any questions or would like to share feedback, please feel free to send it my way.
*I've included a few screenshots of the book pages from inside Scribus in edit mode do you can se more of the work behind.
That's very impressive! Well done
