@libby Thank you 🙂

@libby! Hello, hello, hello! Welcome to Story Embers! I’m a humble time-traveler that lives with the elves! What do you do in your spare time? Any hobbies besides reading and writing?

I am the second out of seven, ages ranging from 18 to 1, plus I have an adopted older sister. Just thought I’d get that all out there. 😀

I love Pride and…[Read more]

Oh, and by the way, I just realized I’ve been spelling their band name wrong (It’s “Gray” not “Grey”) and I also just saw the announcement about their new album coming out in October!!! <3

@libby I really like their songs: Far Kingdom, Band of Gold, and Go. My other favorite artists would be The Brilliance, Colony House, Enya, and Andrew Peterson.

By the way, I really like the quote in your signature. 🙂

@libby @emma-starr

I need to watch the Anne Of Green Gables series again. I haven’t seen them in several years. I haven’t watched The Road To Avonlea. Is it good?

I love Five Little Peppers and How They Grew! That was one of the first books I bought with money I earned weeding the garden. I still have it.

@libby My sibling’s ages range from around 9 to 23.

And if I may insert myself into the discuss here about music… I love the Grey Havens! <3 Which of their songs are you favorites?

@libby @evelyn

I never had a younger sister… so I adopted Evelyn as my younger sister.

And yes… I attest, Evelyn loves her family a lot, and doesn’t mind talking about them.

As for N.D. Wilson… I would recommend  all of us fiction work… Read the One Hundred Cupboards series (not including the prequel, yet), then the Ash Town Burials……[Read more]

@libby No I don’t mind. In fact, I actually like to brag on my family… just ask @wordsmith 😉

I have seven siblings: Andrew, Brianna, Caitlin, Daniel, Franklin, Gabriel, and Hosanna. 🙂

@libby Thanks. 🙂

What’s really cool is that my parents named me and my siblings alphabetically!

@libby Shel Silverstein is a guy. And I was joking about the name Evelyn. 🙂

I actually get tired of hearing it. xD

@libby Yes, it’s my favorite book actually. So beautiful! 🙂

@libby My favorite poets would be Emily Dickenson, Tolkien, and Shel Silverstein. I didn’t know Robert Louis Stevenson was a poet! I’ll have to look into that.

@wordsmith Oh dear… not again. What have you started??? :/

xD

Libby, tell your little sister she has a beautiful name. 😉

@wordsmith I am just having problems developing my characters, like getting them out of my head and onto the paper, if you know what I mean. And The Hunger Games are certainly interesting. I like some parts, but other parts are not my favorite.

@libby My favorite thing is trying out weird and new desserts. I have recently taken an interest in…[Read more]

@libby Hey again! 🙂

@libby I have! They’re pretty simple but expressive, so very relaxing to play. I have played the three gnossiennes–my personal favorites. (Especially the third!)

I have read all of L.M. Montgomery’s novels, and The Blue Castle is my favorite. I love it!!! Aaaaahh!!! Emily is definitely a close second. Have you read Pat of Silver Bush, Kilmeny of…[Read more]

*clears throat* *dons brit accent*

Hullo, @libby! I’m Inkdragon, Sarah Inkdragon to be exact. I’m a shape-shifter from the far away realm of Rim Earth, moved here to research mythical creatures and finish my novel on the Great War of Rim Earth and those who put an end to it.

So, you could say, I’m on a fantastical vacation. 😉

Pride & Prejudice…[Read more]

@libby

Hey Libby! I go by Wordsmith! Some people might tell you I’m Evelyn’s big brother, but then you might get confused, so I won’t tell you that.

I too enjoy reading… A lot! Tolkien is probably my favorite author, though I really like N.D. Wilson. I write a little poetry, but mostly short stories of either fantasy or superhero accent.

Do…[Read more]

Welcome @libby to SE! We are all glad to have you here!

I’m Evelyn. I like to read a huge variety, and mainly write fantasy and poetry.

I love Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South too! I’ve not read Mary Barton, but I have read her Wives and Daughter and love that book as well. I also have not read David Platt’s Radical, but I have read the bo…[Read more]

@libby That sounds great! Any advice/feedback is welcome. Would a google docs link or an email work better for you?
