Ereki!
On vacation, so literally just copying and pasting.
Hope you all have an awesome week! I’m going to try to pop in a bit later on, but we’ll see.

<b>Why Write</b>
If youβre reading this, the chances are pretty high that youβre a writer. But how often do you tend to stop and think about what it means for you to say that? Being a wri…[Read more]

Good job, everyone!! You did so good!
@princess-foo You’re doing a great job! I’m always grateful for the reminder that there’s a war going on, since I tend to forget. >.<

@princess-foo, I think we’re doing alright. I think you’ve done a pretty good job of marshaling our army to enter the fray with all soldiers in attendance. You even got me to stop lurking and actually contribute, even if I failed to actually write original stuff this time around.

@ALL
My goodness! Those are some crazy dreams! XD Truly and certifiably insane, some of you. XD Just kidding – I’m a kettle calling pots black. But at least when it comes to dreams, I cannot even begin to match any of those.Β My dreams are so insanely boring and I so rarely remember them…
…yeah. Not even going to bother. π

Awesome job, everyone! *feels bad because I didn’t actually do much (aka anything)* It turned out great though, despite that. Or maybe because of it. *eyes self*
Anyway, a question for next time, @princess-foo. I wondered what you thought of switching back to one writer and then all the others brainstorm and edit.
Two reasons for this. One of…[Read more]

Martin Detwiler started the topic Week 11: Writing Life: Why You Should Write Outside (Daeus Lamb) in the forum Weekly Theme Discussion 6 years, 11 months ago
Good evening, Ereki!
We have another discussion topic for this week, and I am personally quite interested in your answers to this one. Here’s what Daeus wrote for us:
Why to write outside
Iβm writing this post outside. The sun is shining, and some trees provide shade. The stream is full and bubbling and a wind stirs the leaves.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Prompt War: Second Person in the forum Announcements 6 years, 11 months ago
@princess-foo *chews lip* So, I do like both endings. And sad endings are always… *coughs* fun because of emotion. But I think, in this case, I do like @karthmin‘s ending better for the space we have. I feel like it’s more straightforward and we still have good, sad emotions there.
We could maybe combine some aspects though. For instance, if we…[Read more]

@karthmin, I appreciate your silver lining!
By the way, I quite liked Endbringer, though I think I still need another couple read-throughs to understand it properly. It’s funny – I immediately began thinking of the song “O’Death”, specifically the cover performed for Until Dawn – which I totally wasn’t listening to nonstop while writing this…[Read more]

@catwing I genuinely enjoyed reading that. Your imagination is one of a kind. XD

Well, it really seemed like that question was a bit of a hit, so I’ll keep hitting on something that a lot of us brought up in our answers to last week’s question:
What is the craziest dream you have ever had?

So… who is writing this? I offered to help, and I know we have some part time writers. But while I love the idea I’m not sure it’s clicked enough in my brain for me to do it justice. Like–I like it but I’m not sure how I’d actually go about trying to write it. *chews on lip*

Corine replied to the topic Question: What the Dickens is True Love? in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
Hello π Thought I’d add my own two cents to this question.
First off, MASSIVE question and I don’t think anyone can really understand all these nuances properly.
As @princess-foo and @the-inkspiller have said, marriage is meant to be an image of Christ and His Church and His utmost devotion to her.
I think God, in His omnipotence, knows who we…[Read more]

Yes! Trying once again!
Just blew out the first draft like a madman. I had the idea and the outline and inspiration. Gosh my butt hurts – I’ve been sitting or squatting to write since 6 this morning. Praise God above for this – I haven’t felt this inspired in months, if not years.Only…[Read more]

@princess-foo it sounds like it’s going to be an awesome story! Due to some college and moving stuff, I unfortunately won’t be able to help much, but I’ll be cheering you guys on π

I can help write also, but I can’t be the main writer. I can help whenever I’m able though!

@princess-foo Okay. *nods* See you later then.
@Hope-ann Gotcha.
@morreafirebird Yay! Sorry you can’t make it though.
@karthmin Thank you.
Hopefully you can make it. π
*looks around for a weapon* *raises paw and extends claws* Yeah! For Erekdale, alive and well! Kree! Kree! -
Filewriter posted an update 6 years, 12 months ago
Hey, guys! Sorry, I haven’t been very active in the guild AT ALL lately. I’ve decided to go on hiatus from Story Embers for a little while. I figured out that I’ve just committed to too many things and I’m having trouble with doing them all. So, while Story Embers is really important to me, it’s also one of the things that I’ll be giving up. For a…[Read more]

You’ll be missed my friend, but I understand. Enjoy your break! I shall await your return. *hands you feathers for your journey* Until we meet again. :3

Hey, mate it’s okay. Do what you have to do π

Aw, well I’ll miss you! Thanks for being awesome. π

Darn, I get back from a hiatus to find friends going on a hiatus. (Wait what’s the plural form of hiatus? *hmm*)
We’ll all miss you, but I understand that sometimes, breaks are necessary! See you soon! π
