@kate @r-m-archer @elizabeth @daeus-lamb I agree that it would be really cool from someone’s perspective. But, would this also be a story? Do we just describe a sunset? Or do we make into something else? What if this was metaphor? Or really representing something else?

Uhh…I’ve been taking a bit of a break from writing because life is just so overwhelming, but for this week, all that I’m going for is a blog post.
*Possibly* I might write a poem, or work on plot/character development, but we’ll see how that goes.

Olivia Giordano replied to the topic What's been your biggest breakthrough with character development? in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 1 month ago
When I first started writing (a little less than a year ago) I didn’t even get POV. When I wrote, I kept going between character’s heads. And not really showing anyone’s thoughts. I would show some stuff, but it was obvious.
I don’t know when I was able to get out of that, but probably starting on my next book, I realized I had been…[Read more]

I did! She did amazing for sure. *nods* That combined with your writing was awesome. 🙂

Thank you for this, Brandon. It’s so encouraging, to know that it’s all about Him. Our stories can have the most power, because they have a true hope. I love that we can rely on His strength alone. It’s not about us, but about him. I really needed to hear this today.

@sleepwalkingmk ADORA!!! *dances* You’re here. 🙂 *hugs you and jumps up and down* Great to have you here at Story Embers, dear!
I love reading fangirling over my friends’ books, waving my pom poms for my writer friends’ achievements (long story), and occasionally evaporating into a cloud while reading (long explanation)
*laughs* That’s the short…[Read more]

@theresa-play Wow. That’s a lot of different places. And it can be really strange when you’re from one place but look so much like you belong with another place. I guess that’s part of what being a TCK means.
@literatureforthelight That makes sense, Grace. And btw, your tag is a billion times easier on here. XD
@daeus-lamb I look forward to…[Read more]

@allison-grace Hey twinsie! XD. Good to see you on here. 🙂 It’s nice to see a fellow Ydubber on here, because it seems like on KP and SE, they’re a minority. Sadly. *sniffs back tear* But all these people are amazing too.
Ooh. And fellow Jaye L. Knight fan. Her books are the best, right?
Is your WIP fantasy? It sounds really cool.

@scribbles That is really well done! A few things…
Me olvido de como decir
I think for that, you don’t need the “de” in that line. For these lines as well…take out the “de”.
Me olvido de las palabras.
Me olvido de tu lengua.
Me olvido de mi lengua.
Anndd…I think, instead of “Pero yo olvido” it would “Pero lo olvido”. This is where it…[Read more]

@theresa-play I’m totally comfortable sharing, especially since this is a more private setting. XD
This question is complicated. *Currently* I’m living in New Jersey. We lived in Oaxaca, Mexico for four years, and now we’re considering going to India as missionaries.
How about you? Where do you live?

@daeus-lamb I’m torn between Scribes of Wessex and New Wessians. I think maybe New Wessians, because for me…Scribes of Wessex is kinda clunky to say.
Can we give ourselves some kind of title/tag as well? That would be pretty cool, if for example, mine was “New Wessian: Blue Maiden of *something*” XD. And then we could all have titles like t…[Read more]

@kate This is soo tough, because I’m such a perfectionist, and want everyone to have the right perspective on me.

I know @cindy is the famous KP/SE poet as well.

*waves* Hello peoples! I don’t know many of you very well…yet, but I can already tell that this Guild is gonna be epic. Can’t wait to get to know all of you *very* well. 🙂 Also, random question, @daeus-lamb. Are the Guilds public? Can anyone see our conversations in here? XD. I know the general forums are that way, but I wasn’t sure about in here.
