Hi @caledris,
I just wanted to let some of y’all (Texas slang for “you guys and gals”) that Kaytlin Philips has a pretty good monitored Forum type blog site at:
https://www.writers-vision.com/…if any of you want to try signing up there (yes, it’s free too).
They have writing games and contests, challenges, and writing topics too.

@this-is-not-an-alien Thanks!
yeah, I just recently got onto Story Embers, but I met two great people that help me out sooooo much! (Reflecting how one does so well with putting up with my a-lot-less-than-perfect punctuation and grammar; shout out to you, Lydia.) And even though I’m so new, I almost cried when I saw the announcement. So long,…[Read more]

Like so many people here, I’m pretty devastated about the recent announcement. That being said, I trust that the SE staff has good reasoning for this change, and I trust that God has His hand on the situation. I suppose ultimately this wonderful blessing might have only been meant to prepare us all to step into the callings that God has p…[Read more]

Hi, Abrielle!
I am Inkhorn (as my username and tag both state xP), and it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance though it is through the Internet.
I’m not sure how many people are still active since SE has been pretty dead lately, but since summer has started, it might kick up again.
I’ll tag some of the others from the…[Read more]

Awesome, thanks so much, Rose! I just sent you an email. And so cool that the story you’re writing is similar! 🙂

solanelle replied to the topic Hey! I finally made it!!! in the forum Introduce Yourself 3 years ago
@sarafini Those stories sound really interesting! I’ve sometimes wondered about writing a contemporary story…but I think I love the historical aesthetic too much XD We’ll see!
I’ll tag some people I know! I’m not sure how many will respond (since the forum has been pretty quiet) but I’d love for you to get to know some people here &l…[Read more]

Oh noooo you are not alone!!! Lemmie find like @rose-colored-fancy @irishcelticredflowercrown and @calidris – you do dark fantasy right? – and my sister @hannahrenner and @brian-stansell and I think a buncha others.

R.M. Archer replied to the topic Comic recommendations? in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 3 months ago
If you like superheroes, the Daredevil comic series by Mark Waid is clean! Vol. 2 gets a little weird for a bit (supernatural-style weird), but overall it’s really good! I also really liked The Defenders: Diamonds are Forever (which censors cussing).
To piggyback on @rose-colored-fancy‘s recommendation, Scott McCloud’s book…[Read more]

Hi Kayla! I do remember you, and I’m glad you’re back!
What’s your WIP about? Do you have any favorite books? What are some of your favorite crafts?
That’s really cool that you’re learning to knit! I never learned to knit, but it does seem fun (and practical.)I think that SE is…unfortunately rather inactive at the moment. I think that…[Read more]

Noah Cochran replied to the topic Battle Scenes in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 4 months ago
Thanks for the tips!
One caveat is that this works for me, but might not work for someone else. I like a lot of structure and plotting everything, and this technique is informed by that.
I should’ve done that as well. I outline the character actions and interactions quite heavily, but the combat sequences not so much. My…[Read more]

Noah Cochran started the topic Battle Scenes in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 4 months ago
Every time I attempt a battle/skirmish sequence with several different parties and character goals, my writing spirals downwards into an abysmal mess of telling, forced introspection, and an all around lack of suspense and scene immersion. This is despite my efforts to focus on emotions and senses. In fact, I feel like emotions sometimes take over…[Read more]

I wouldn’t mind being a part of this, although I’m writing this as I’m coming off an insane 12 hour shift at the hospital. I have a lot of free time when I am off though. And ye, I have Discord.

Count me in!
@ethan-leonard Discord works way better for me too – I’m horrible at checking (and replying to) emails, plus with discord you can send related media, gifs etc…
Idk, discord’s just really fun in general XD I feel like it’s also way more casual, so there’s less pressure to write something amazing or…[Read more]

Emily Waldorf started the topic Writing Sprint Group in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
Hello everyone!
I am trying to get 4-6 people together to form a writing spring group. Basically, we get together at scheduled times to do writing sprints. It could be weekly, biweekly, monthly, whatever. I just think it would be good for me to do sprints, and it would be so much funner and more accountable with others!
I was hoping we could…[Read more]

@ethan-leonard @rose-colored-fancy Happy birthday and welcome to legal adulthood! I hope you both had awesome days. Did you do anything special?
And, Rose, that was directly my fault for getting Tul involved with two interactions at once, lol. I can carry on a dual timeline if you want to interact before him and Val are done, though. Dual…[Read more]

Tullian
A man rolled in, sitting in a chair. It was newer and better designed than any he had seen. He started to wonder what country the man came from, but his thoughts broke off mid-sentence.
pain shot up and down his right leg, overwhelming the other emotions that bombarded him. He categorized them almost unconsciously.
Anger, resentment,…[Read more]
