Woohoo! Glad to see the participation from other Story Embers folks on here. 😀

That sounds like an awesome story idea, @edmund-lloyd-fletcher! I’m actually teaching through the original work with my 11th graders at the moment.

Hope the writing process goes well, @emgc! Glad you don’t need an outline to know where to take the story. 🙂

Sounds…[Read more]

@eden-anderson Yes, this year has been tough! I’m so glad you’ve been doing okay tho 🙂

I’m doing all right, all things considered.  Had some struggles this year, definitely, but you are right– there is so much to be thankful for 😊 I’ve had little time for writing in these past few months, so I’m excited to be making time for it this month!

Let…[Read more]

@eden-anderson Thanks! So glad you’re participating too!  (I can’t believe it’s been a year 😅 How have you been doing?)

@naiya-dyani That’s fantastic!!!!! Congrats 😀

I am!!!!!! (My username is Emberlynn) I… really didn’t make much of an outline 😅 But this an idea I’ve been working on for a few years now, so I think I’ve got a good idea of how it’s gonna go 🙃

@dakota OOoooohhhh. HOLD ON EVERYBODY. Thanks to Dakota, I spotted an error. I actually calculated some results from last word war.

Here are the new calculations:

Word war group 1: 10,810
Word war group 2: No participation
Word war group 3: 6,567

Individual with the highest word count: @fairfay with 6,191!

Sorry about the confusion, f…[Read more]

@eden-anderson, thanks for sharing! Barron sounds like a great guy. Learning about all these interesting characters makes me want to know more of their stories. Sounds like most of them are still works in progress, though. Maybe someday…

@lonathecat

Definitely!

Haha, yeah I get that.  I have a lot of friends like that too.

Yes! I’ve always thought they’re beautiful too.  And lol, yes I get that too.  I don’t know if I’m good at it, but I enjoy it. 🙂

Aw, thank you.  That means a whole lot.  I’ll admit, the road hasn’t been easy.  I thought adoption would be.  But it really…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 @esmeralda-gramilton @dakota @urwen-starial @eden-anderson @law0413

Laurel those are hysterical XD I’ve gotta make a Vine compilation of my characters someday. I’ve got a whole list. . .

Grace: Tai, let me see what you have–

Tai: A KNIFE!

Grace: NO!

Wearing masks during the pandemic:

Kiet: wears one so that no one…[Read more]

Ok, I’m kinda late to this thread, but oh well.

@mariposa

I actually just finished Fawkes for the first time, and I have to put that on my list. I agree with you about how Nadine Brandes added complexity to her plot and characters to make it feel realistic, instead of the basic cut and dry bad guys vs good guys. Definitely an inspiration.…[Read more]

aaaand I just disappeared off the face of the earth for a while XD

@eden-anderson Indeed! 🙂 😀 And IT IS!!! I WANT ONE

@dakota Ahh, the great and wonderful Pinterest 😀

@eden-anderson Awwwwww! Your story is touching. ❤️☺️

I love what you said here: “the writing community is very important for so many different reasons, but especially because we humans can tend to get so stuck inside our own heads, seeing only one perspective on an issue and we need others to remind us of the truth and to help shift p…[Read more]

@eden-anderson Is Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes middle-grade? The name seems familiar (probably saw it on bookstagram somewhere).

@eden-anderson Thank you! *hugs* It’s good to be back, yes? Ah, the good ole days, when Story Embers was new and we were young and crazy.

Oh.

Wait.

WE’RE STILL CRAZY!!! HAHA!

Just a leetle less young. 😉

This is actually my first contemporary fiction work I’ve done, so I’m a little nervous. Or maybe a LOT nervous. But thank you. 🙂

@dakota He really is XD

And HA! I’m totally gonna use that line about me being in my shirt next time I trip XD

@naiya-dyani

Sksksksksk that’s hilarious XD XD

@eden-anderson EEEEYYYY HELLOOOO MAH FRAND 😀 😀

My brother (12) was looking over my shoulder a minute ago and saw your profile pic and he’s still going on about how cute the hedgehog is…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani LOL! Love Tai!

@eden-anderson It’s okay, welcome! And thanks. 🙂

@mayajoelle Hehe, yeah, I can’t say I’m much of a politics fan. XD Now I have some more to add to my list! I love The Kate and Abbie Show!

There are some really great songs in Dear Evan Hansen. I’ve been half dying know what Beetlejuice is about, lol. Ahh, I think the show I’d most want to see in Broadway would be Newsies, haha. 😛 I absolutely…[Read more]
