@kristinbradley I love that adaption. It’s so good! Usually when reading a book after watching the BBC version I can see it play out scene by scene perfectly.

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd… well I was pretty upset that the narrator was guilty. I had really been cheering for him. But! I enjoyed it. Ah! And Then There Were None!  That one I really enjoyed! It had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! I’m so glad you don’t know anything about it going in. I will not spoil it, but once you finish it I am very curious of your thoughts. 🙂

What does participating in a guild look like… well. Honestly, it becomes what you make of it. And the amount of time you invest gives different results. For me, it’s a three times a week, to check in on conversations and reply to them. Then there are contests and (friendly) competitions between the guilds, whether they be word wars (which guild can write the most words in a week) or when the guild works together to write a short story from a prompt. There are also weekly writing lessons to exercise and learn more about different aspects of writing (right now the guilds are working through the topic of writing habits and time management and such…)

There are also sections in the private guild forum for prayer requests, accountability, and asking for help in editing, plotting, etc.

Being in the overall forum can be overwhelming, so having a smaller, tighter group of writers who you can keep up with and cheer on, helps. 🙂

I hope I explained it well. Here is a list of the current guilds if you are curious and want to read about them: https://storyembers.org/guilds/

Right now there are seven general writing guilds and one art guild (which they, sadly, decided will be the last), but I’m hoping for a poetry guild at some point. 😉
