<p>Hmm, I see&#8230;Christianna thought that it fit better with the story prompt, since that was supposed to be the focus. But I don&#8217;t know! I guess I can recover the old story if need be. <a href='https://storyembers.org/members/faith_blum/' rel="nofollow ugc">@faith_blum</a>, are you allowed to give input on this?</p>

<p>Well, I have something in the document now. 🙂 I didn&#8217;t use the examples you gave me, but you got my brain going, so thank you!</p>
<p><a href='https://storyembers.org/members/faith_blum/' rel="nofollow ugc">@faith_blum</a> Do you want to tag everyone so that they can take a look at what I have so far in the document?</p>
