@scribbles @kate @libby @evelyn @h-jones @k-a-grey @sir-leeds

This is a recent short poem of mine. I would like to submit it to Story Embers, so I’ve added to the original to get the word count. When writing this, I had a distinct image in my mind of a warrior coming back to their heart after leaving it behind. The theme is the numbness and the…[Read more]

Emma Huckabee (Emma Starr) started the topic Outlining vs Actual Writing in the forum Rillumen's Writing Discussions 6 years, 12 months ago

I have a story idea, (finally!) and I’ve been trying to outline before I start writing the actual story. However, getting everything figured out is turning out to be pretty hard. (My main resources have been K.M. Weiland’s blog and Story Embers resources) When I write poetry, I draft out my idea with very little planning but with a strong idea of…[Read more]

@gabriellepollack Thank you! *catches glitter and stows it away for future use*

@ericawordsmith Don’t trust anyone—we writers are dangerous. 😜

@scribbles *blinks* My subconscious apparently wrote a Star Trek reference in there and I didn’t even know it. 😳

Dear Rillumen,

Y’all, the squirrels have gotten out of hand. Here I was, just trying to live a simple life and be a successful squirrel wrangler…and they’ve up and kidnapped me, forcing me to do their bidding, leaving me almost no time to write anything or keep up with more than about five and half friends at once.

Hi everyone, I’d appreciate some help with this free verse poem. Here are a few things I’d like to draw your attention to specifically, but I’d greatly appreciate any feedback you may have for me:

Hey guys!

The holidays have ended and school has started and it’s time to get back to work! (But it’s like… writing. Fun work. This’ll be grand.)

Emma Huckabee (Emma Starr) started the topic SE Submission in the forum Poetry Discussions 7 years, 3 months ago

When you’re submitting a poem to Story Embers, is it okay to get it critiqued in the poetry forum first? Would it be okay to get some advice on which poem to submit? (Like which one is higher quality…?) Or is better to submit multiple and see what they say?

One of my goals this year is to submit at least 3 poems to Story Embers. I’m going to do…[Read more]

@scribbles Irish Gaelic. I stated learning it on Duolingo four weeks ago. So I wouldn’t quite claim to speak it. But I can ask for the water (instead of doing it in Spanish as I have for many years), and say that I’m not a man, that I like chocolate, and that water is drinking an owl (funniest recent mistake).

I spent some of New Year’s Eve…[Read more]
