Per request, I have updated the Scene Questions below to include Rose’s suggestion (@rose-colored-fancy) …

…AND I have added one additional question that goes to the value of this fun exercise. 😎  12 Disciples – 12 Tribes of Israel – 12 Gates in the Heavenly City – 12 – Eggs in a Dozen… (Okay, I’ll admit I got carried away with this last…[Read more]

The boy was offering her fruit. He looked at her hesitantly, then looked away. She wondered what he made of her. She had hurt his friend after all. Yet he was still offering her food. What was left of it anyway.

She stared at him carefully, then pushed his hands away, shaking her head. “You – eat,” she answered. Then she pointed at herself. “Me -…[Read more]

Hi Joelle,

Whew! It has been a long and busy week.
Trying to catch up on responding to posts.

So, let me clarify a little.  These snippets of scenes are extracted from anywhere in a longer work, so they will often be introduced without context or backstory.  We are just looking at the intrinsic value of a single scene, which m…[Read more]

Nithel stares a bit at them, then glances to the food, intending to hand it out.

He goes first to Brendin, offering him a loaf of mushed bread. If the man doesn’t take it, Nithel will lay it on the ground before him. His manor is like that of a servant, when facing Brendin.

He then moves to Jericho, manor more relaxed, but still formal as he…[Read more]

Come hither!

@joelle-stone

Are there any ideas you would like me to use with Arundelle?

@joelle-stone

Of course your vote counts! You’re still a featherhead, aren’t you? And maybe, even though you’re not part of the story any more, you could still pop in to give advice?

I’m glad you like my idea! The Wingfeather family needs some more kids, and the Jewels need cousins. And I agree, only one twin should have wings. (Probably drive…[Read more]

So, what next? And, who is going to take Arundelle & Gammon? (@joelle-stone, you got any preferences?)

Oh uh HI @ANNE_THE_NOOB14!!! *bowls over with hug*

Before he could think straight Alessio felt himself yanked forward, dizzy with the noise, images, memories, present all jumbled. There was something he…couldn’t rememb–He nearly lost his balance shoved through the hole and darted up disoriented, prepared to fend off a blow.
But everything was bright and…he blinked back the hot sudden light,…[Read more]

Malvat studied the woman.

This is why they call me the Blood Mink.

Her thoughts flitted across her brain, her mind barely registering the words.

“No one – come near,” she hissed, the words slow and forced as she took up a guarded position, powers swirling around her body. “Or – I – hurt.”

People were drawing weapons. The air quickly escalated…[Read more]

Nithel grabbed the bag with one hand, clutching underneath one of Alessio’s arms with the other. Dragging him toward where everyone else was going. More dust. It was like the castle was coughing, or growling at them in rage…

Nithel shoved Alessio through the hole, and barreled out behind him. The light was so bright Nithel was almost blinded.…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy,

Well done!! I’m gonna sprint now if you want to join. 😉 (Also gonna tag @rebekah12 @crazywriter @this-is-not-an-alien @jasmine @kylie-wingfeather @irishcelticredflowercrown and @kimlikesart

Malvat rumbled. He was being ordered about by a human yet again. No matter if this one was empowered, he would let the ceiling crumble before he obeyed again. Was humiliated again. Of course, he’d save her life – it wouldn’t do to appear heartless – but it would be clear he chose to do it.

Unfortunately, before he could execute his plan, Jericho…[Read more]

Nithel came beside Alessio, and began to work at the wall. Then he watched Alessio, struggling… “Alessio,” He whispered, rather loudly, because the ceiling’s noise was loud. “It is not about the power, but your feelings. Do you want the flame to come? Why. Is it because you love us, and want to be saved? Is it because you are angry at this…[Read more]

@avery_diagham

You create your own. Or (depending own what Jasmine and Crazywriter say) you could write for Faith the hedgehog, BR’s character (I kinda wanna take over on Ash, Joelle’s character).

But. . . yeah. You create your own. And they can be any animal. I mean. . . my character is a dragon for goodness’ sakes.

I forget if there are any…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

So, usually I do medieval Fantasy (i.e Ranger’s Apprentice style) with maybe a very light touch of magic (I have a phoenix in my current WIP novel).  But I’ve also tried a dystopian/fantasy style for a MG short story I just finished.  It’s kinda like alt. history, in the sense that there’s wagons, trains, towns and cities, b…[Read more]

“Pick a wall,” Alessio said to the newcomer, authority in his voice as flames crackled over his body. If Malvat had ever doubted that he was empowered, he couldn’t now. “If there’s not a door we’ll make one. Anyone who has an ability can start chiseling out a weak point. Malvat can ram it down then?” He looked up, dark eyes meeting Malvat’s. H…[Read more]

“We don’t have a lot but we’ll try to share everything alike here.” The boy gave her what looked like a welcoming smile. A half-hearted one at that. She didn’t smile back, simply swallowing the rest of her bread and stared back at him stonily.

She wasn’t sure why he was so willing to just let her eat. Wasn’t survival their top priority? She…[Read more]
