Avensers assemble!
It’s time for a word war. If you’re new to this event, a word war is where you will keep track of all of your fiction writing and next Tuesday evening, you will report your word counts. Then I will gather all of those counts and report our total and see how we stacked up against the rest of the guilds.
What counts toward the…[Read more]

Hey Everybody…
Historical Fictioners, What an awesome word to describe us!!! I look forward to talking with you all. I personally love doing my research but it can be hard. Some time periods have a lot of preconceptions about them and…[Read more]

One of the downfalls of the marvellous Kingdom Pen was the fact that there were hardly any his-fic writers and that when I made a historical fiction topic, it thrived for about half an hour and then died.
HOWEVER
Story Embers has a lot of historical fictioners (yes, I made up that word), so we should all band together and discuss all the best…[Read more]

@samantha-pen, @libby, @seekjustice, @eden-anderson.
Hello everyone! I’m so sorry for the delay. I meant to reply earlier but couldn’t get to it!
To make amends I wrote extra! (actually, no, that’s my typical response) I tend to think that everyone loves talking as much as I do!
Just for curiosity’s sake: Does anyone have a “Literary Kindred…[Read more]

Eden Anderson replied to the topic Hello! in the forum Introduce Yourself 7 years, 8 months ago
Hey! Awesome to meet you!
I”m curious who are your favorite generals in the Civil War history? My favorite leading characters during that particular conflict were probably Stonewall Jackson, Joshua Chamberlain, Ulysses S. Grant, and Harriet Tubman…and a lot of others. 😀 Yes, I love poetry but I’ve never actually written anything……[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Hello! in the forum Introduce Yourself 7 years, 8 months ago
Hello there! Nice to meet you (it seems we have a lot in common!)
I think I love the French Revolution because it clearly shows some of the best and worst parts of human nature.
Most of my stories and novels take place in WW1. I enjoy reading about WW2 but its always seemed to me that WW1 is a much rarer setting for a historical story.…[Read more]

Faith Blum started the topic Topic #20: Story Structure, the Hook in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago
Good morning, Avensers! (Side note: every time I see that word, I want to say “Avengers Assemble!” or something like that)
Today, I am going to start a series on story structure. Because that’s what I’m learning a lot about right now. All of this information is coming from my notes from reading Structuring Your Novel by K.M. Weiland.
The first…[Read more]

Faith Blum replied to the topic Hi! in the forum Announcements 7 years, 8 months ago
Hi, @libby! Wow! That is quite the list. Pride and Prejudice is probably one of my favorite books, too. It’s always hard picking favorite books, but I’ll list a couple of favorite authors. Jaye L. Knight, Amanda Tero, Karen Witemeyer, Louis L’Amour (there is some language in these books), and Jane Austen.
How cool! I hope the piano teaching goes…[Read more]

@Libby Thank you! 🙂 Ye, I was thinking I’d give Lucky a unique story, and I’m pretty satisfied with what I came up with. He’ll have a character arc, of course. 🙂 And yes, I like Gor. She needs more backstory, but I’m working on it. P:

Evelyn, your poem was beautiful in a childlike way. I loved it! it reminded me a lot of Robert Louis Stevenson’s poetry.
As for my hair, we have a family story where mom gave us the “Stranger Danger” talk, and I grabbed my curls and started crying. Mom asked what was wrong, and I sobbed, “They will take me first because of my…[Read more]
