@the-fledgling-artist, *gasp of wonder* Ahh!! I love the painting! The swirly clouds, the colors…. It’s beautiful! 🙂 Makes me want to try watercolors more than ever. 😉

@eden-anderson, Yes!! New Wessex for the win!! 😀

@sageinthemeadow, Oh, that sounds really neat!

Ah, I’m glad the pressure is working. 🙂 I like the fanart! What did you use to make it?

@writerforever, Ooh, sounds like lots of fun! I love cats. 🙂

I’ve done some fanart, a bunch of art for friends, and a tiny bit of character art. 🙂

Hey guys, here I am…. a week later…. XP Sorry!

@dekreel, I love your drawings!! The character from Honey Butter is so cute! 😀 (I’ve never actually read that book, but I’ve read quite a bit about it, and I really want to read it.)

Thank you so much! You’re very talented yourself! 😀

@sageinthemeadow, Hey! Yes, it’s so nice to see everyone…[Read more]

@the-fledgling-artist, Hey! I’ve been doing pretty good. How have you been?

Ah! That’s so neat that you’re doing a graphic novel! I’ve always thought it would be neat to do something like that. What is it about, if you don’t mind me asking? Yes, I would love to see what you’ve been working on! Haha, I’ve actually been doing a TON of art lately,…[Read more]

Ooh! I love mysteries, if they’re done well. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to write one well… 😛

Ahh!! I love it, @evelyn. It reminds me of Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” painting. 🙂

@shadowwriter161,

No, that’s definitely not just a “you problem”. I struggle with that a bit too, so I don’t know how much of a help I can be. 😝 Sometimes when I’m having trouble getting a sentence or paragraph to flow, it helps if I try to think of the way I would say it if I was just telling a friend (if that makes sense 😛 ). But I don’t know…[Read more]

@shadowwriter161, Well, thank you! I’ll try to let you know if it ever gets published. 😁

That’s awesome! I’m working on my first draft as well. 🙂

Yes!! I love that about Story Embers too! 😊

@shadowwriter161. sorry for taking so long to reply. 😛

Aw, you’re so sweet! Your story sounds thrilling! Are you working on your first draft?

Yes, great advice! I think that will help. 🙂

@shadowwriter161

You’re welcome.

No, I don’t mind. My story is about a cursed prince who goes on a journey to find the fairy who cursed him, and discovers the painful price of true love. That’s my one sentence (and kinda sappy sounding 😝) summary, anyway. 😊 What’s yours about?

Well, it’s nice to know I’m not alone. 🙂 Do you have any things you…[Read more]

@shadowwriter161

Yeah, well, I don’t know if they would be helpful for you and the style you’re going for, but Lee Hammond’s art books are what really gave the push into realistic drawing. 🙂 So that’s my recommendation.

Yes! I do the same thing. 🙂

I have a few WIPs, but just one that I’m really focusing on and trying to get finished right…[Read more]

@shadowwriter161, I’m not sure, since I learned mostly from different art books. What style are you interested in learning?

Haha, you’re fine. 😉 That’s really neat! 🙂

Something I love about writing is the ability to put the stories on my heart onto a page and explore truths. The hard thing for me is that I love stories and the characters I…[Read more]

@sailorj, Hey, and welcome to Story Embers.

*Gasps* You play sax?? What kind do you play? (Okay, sorry about that. I love the sax.)

What do you like to write about? Do you like to listen to music while you write?

@shadowwriter161, Ah, that’s okay. 😁

You’re welcome! And I’m happy that you’re here!

Well, like I said, I haven’t been very active lately, but it is fun. And it’s really helpful since I’m both an artist and a writer. 😃 You should learn!! You’re never too old to learn to draw or paint.

So, since all my go-to questions were already asked on this…[Read more]

@shadowwriter161, Well, this is really late, and I haven’t been active on this site in forever, but I just wanted to say hey, and welcome to Story Embers!

By the way, your profile picture is adorable!! Did you draw it?

@catwing, Aw, man. My brother’s going to be there and I really wish I could go. 😢 But alas, I don’t got no monies. 😭

@emma-starr, your blog looks awesome! Also, yellow is your favoritest color too??
