Results are up! We didn’t do so well this time, but we did know that. 😉 A fair few people didn’t get their counts in on time, and those of us who did, didn’t write a ton. Myself well and truly included.

But guess what, guys? There’s a good chance that we’ll have a word war in July when we’re Camp NaNo-ing to absolutely thrash the other guilds!…[Read more]

@noodle-mum OHMIGOSH ALLI YOU JOINED!!!! *runs around screaming and throwing confetti* Welcome to the wondrous world of Story Embers!! I see you already met my good friend Ariel Ashira. Fun fact. She’s the one who did the cover art for The Cry of the Lost. She and Selah Chelyah are both amazing peeps. *nodnod* As is Ariella Newheart. Have you…[Read more]

@evelyn @julia Eyyy, that’s fine. *pats the both of ye* I forgot that the war was even happening, soooo… 😛

@julia Wow, so close to the end! (For both your trilogy drafting and the school year haha) I hope both go well!

Last day for word count submissions! Daeus is tallying…[Read more]

Parimis to attention! After just over a year of being a guild, we have two brand new guildlings!

Welcome Elisha and Simeon Shedd! (Also, if any of you know their tags, please tag them! I can’t find the tags.…[Read more]

Hello all! This has actually been around for a while, but I totally forgot to announce it. (story of my life right now, honestly. XD)

We didn’t win, sadly. </3  That title goes to our friends over in Meraki, so be sure to congratulate them!

Our main issue was (as we kinda knew) that it was a HUGE story trying to masquerade as a super-duper…[Read more]

@evelyn (That’s not a ton less than me, actually. *hides*)

@julia In that case (and any case) good job! 😀

@ariella-newheart Certainly was not just me at the end. But thanks! (And yes, we have magic. Magic is important. I spend my spare time inventing magic systems. Much magic. Un i eldacuru.)

Hey guys! You’ve all done awesomely and I’m so proud of you! I have to call this as a time’s up, though, and send it through for submission.

Great…[Read more]

All right, I finished the last bit. Guys, we have one day left to edit! If you can, please pop onto the doc and read through it, leaving your suggestions. Here’s the link:

@christlover Do you have a plan for the rest of the plot? If so, could you outline it briefly here? If not, could we start brainstorming ideas to help you finish it? We’re drawing near to the deadline, so it would be good for us to tie up the story so we can focus on editing for the last couple days.

On that note…

If we haven’t started on a draft in 24 hours, I’m probably just going to start writing. Just so that we definitely have something to hand in. *fingerguns* Ideally, I let you guys write the first draft so that you can practice and grow, but having something happening is the no. 1 priority.

Volunteers,…[Read more]

As Christlover has said, guys, I reckon it’s time for us to get writing!

For all of you old-timers, (You’re over a year old, some of you. Yikes!) you should be pretty familiar with the routine, and it would be great if you keep things going smoothly through the rather chaotic drafting process that’s about to ensue.

The doc we’ll be writing in is…[Read more]

@julia Thank you!

@evelyn Yep, a concrete poem forms a shape that matches the subject of the piece. It’s pretty fun, and I definitely want to try it more now that I know about it.

@ariella-newheart Aw, I’m so happy it inspired you and served as a reminder. Sometimes it’s easy to forget to pray for them when we get caught up in our busy,…[Read more]

@julia Yay! Thank you!
