Darling of the Day is the story of Priam Farll, a brilliant unconventional artist who offended Queen Victoria and was exiled to the South Pacific. Now it’s 1905 and Victoria has been succeeded by Edward VII. Farll returns to London to receive a knighthood, but is appalled by society’s expectations of him as a flash in the pan celebrity, a “darling of the day.” When Farll’s faithful butler suddenly dies and their identities are confused by an official, Farll seizes the chance to “get out of this world alive.”

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
