I wasn’t referring to the depression, impressively enough (score one for recovery right?). Or the violence.
I am self-aware of the fact that I swear and I do remember you asked me not to.

Did I black out?
Did I … finally finish falling through another hole in reality?
Well.
That’s … interesting.
I’ll just not dwell on that.
At all.
“Fine, can I start with killing you?”
“Hey. Can I join you?” Because honestly, the monster in charge of literal holes in reality needs to die.
Or at least get punched in the face.

Hi @kayla13892
I’m Hannah! *insert awkward wave* I had a bit of a learning curve on Story Embers myself.
I admit, I’m also not writing strictly horror right now. But those techniques will be used often enough in my current project – once I hit plot point 1 – that I’m not actually 100% sure about that.
So I am not particularly familiar with w…[Read more]

Sorry for the long delay – life’s been using me as a punchbag.
Sooooooooo
I don’t remember falling asleep.
But I wake up sore, ornery, hungry, bleeding, hurting, ready to fight whatever G-d Search and Thomas believe in and even more ready to go back to sleep and not wake up for another hundred years.
That’s actually a stupidly nice idea,…[Read more]

I am implementing a new rule in the character castle!
“If in doubt about what direction the team wants to take, do what your character would do.”
So, when writing Burn, I will do as Burn does!
(Congratulations! I have unlocked level JERK.)

So do you write chronologically (starting in chapter 1 and ending at last chapter)?
I am probably the most nonlinear writer you could hope to meet! But I’m actually trying to make an effort to be more liner with my Certain as the Sun fic…

How much ya paying
No pay – this would legit be a free thing I put out on the internet for funzies.
You do remember you should do things for fun, right?
Right?!
Anyway, it’s a loooooong way in the future. If at all. Just seems like it would be fun. 🤷♀️

“Failure to accept your fatal flaws shall end in death. Touch the mirrors and begin your trials.”
Uhhhhhh … what made the mirror’s special?
How are mirrors related to fatal flaws?
What trials?

There are four of us on Story Embers, five of us total.
Is your WIP a stand alone or a series?
As for my WIP, the working title is Lost City of Dragons – I tend to abbreviate it to tLCoD. Another working title is Brand of the Crypt – I hate the title though. 😑 It is SUPPOSED to be a standalone novel, but it’s also kinda a…[Read more]

Hi!
Rejoice in the swords and do not assume my collection will stop at two katanas. Or even with weapons from a singular country.
The day will come when I have a room of nothing but swords.
But it is not this day. 😔
The current summary for my WIP is

Yo. I legit forgot this exists because life, in all their delicate and refined glory, decided to use me for target practice. (Side note, they have really, really good aim.)

Would not allowing me to tap to Believer at midnight be a sense of pride? 🤔
No. It is called keeping a decent sleeping schedule. Which is taking care of myself. Which is loving myself – which is something Jesus commanded (love thy neighbor as thyself).
For Pete’s sake! I have to get up at 4:00 am!
Which is for my job – I work in the…[Read more]

I very much intentionally, with sound mind and full thought and definitely full intention – did I mention that? – deliberately pulled the pin out of my smoke grenade. Because you are only supposed to handle these if you are going to use them.
