@emma-starr Neat thoughts! So actually, I didn’t see this till after I had posted, but some of the others have been putting all their ideas in the doc Brandon provided instead of here, so you should pop over there and share your idea with the others too 🙂

Oh ya’ll have been writing in the doc already! Excellent. 🙂

Ah! I don’t know how I’m going to make it through this writing battle without shedding a few tears. But that’s okay. I’ll help where I can.

First, Gabby’s article is excellent.

As far as symbols, we could use something the character who dies loved. Like muffins. Or a certain song. Or a purple stuffed bear. Or a bridge.

Maybe flower that they…[Read more]

@corkybookworm *is so proud of you for sharing* Yay! Thanks for sharing! I’ll get to read some hopefully soon 🙂 Can’t wait!

@scribbles Yay! I’ll be back to read this soon!

Also, right?! Time after highschool is like *poof* there is goes.

@skredder You can do it! 😀

@corkybookworm Yummy! All this food talk is making my mouth water. XD Cranberry Orange! My gramma makes those every now and then. I’m not very fond of orange or lemon flavor in muffins, but I’ve heard they are well loved by the rest of my family. 🙂

Favorite childhood dessert? My gramps homemade ice cream. 😀 With peaches or homemade strawberry…[Read more]

@scribbles Poor Rachel! *hides all the cashews*. Please don’t ever develop allergies to squirrels.

@brandon-miller

You’re welcome! What are friends for. 😀

But hey, you’re making progress! (Go you!) And you got reacquainted with an old friend (those 90,000 words).  And you’re going to a writing workshop. So that’s a plus. #jealous

Anything is possible.  (WHAT ONLY FOUR WEEKS TILL RM!)

So Friday is the day. That is a little exciting!

@corkybookworm Aww! Thanks! I did enjoy the trip. Took two of my siblings with me to help with a children’s conference! (kiddos+conference= adventure) It was a blast.

I love your enthusiasm. 🙂  Cashews are amazing. And with banana! *makes note for future banana muffin use* What’s your favorite muffin flavor???

Also, @brandon-miller That sounds…[Read more]

@nuetrobolt A word war is a competition between two or more writers to see who can write the most words in a set amount of time. So last week we had a word war between all the guilds here at Story Embers. And our guild won 🙂 If they ever hold another word war between the guilds you can sign up to join! It’s super fun and motivating to get some…[Read more]

@corkybookworm Wow. First, thanks for all the time you put into this critique! It was super thought provoking and helpful.

Haha! Dark Feather sounds like an epic tale that should be written. 🙂

*sigh* Grammar is seriously not a strong point of mine. I’ve been working hard on that 🙂 I am super grateful for all your grammar related comments.…[Read more]

@corkybookworm  This is absolutely charming!

(I’m a big fan of Tinker Bell, though I usually keep that fact under my hat. 😉 ) So this was a delight. It has the same whimsical feel as a Tinker Bell story.

Two things I’m super curious about is 1) why Maya has tiny wings. And 2) what did the dryad warn Maya to run from!

It’s a fun world and…[Read more]

@brandon-miller  Since when did it become June?! How’s Beta Sun’s progress?

@skredder Hey! How’s that short story coming? 😀

@scribbles I do appreciate it. A lot. 🙂

@corkybookworm By the way… Hello! I was out of town much of last week and never got in to say welcome to Rillumen! I’m super excited you’ve join us!

@nuetrobolt  Hello there! I’m Rolena.  I love muffins (particularly of the chocolate chip variety) and squirrels. Well now you know at least one person. 🙂 What’s your favorite dessert?
