Sometimes the most emotionally impactful things are the ones left to the imagination. The scene could be about a protagonist (or antagonist) hearing or finding out about the death of a loved one and describing their reaction – maybe even with a flashback or memory scene thrown in.

I stepped inside the door; cool, confident, not a hair out of place. Well, not except for the huge chunk that wasn’t long enough to reach my ponytail but that was beside the point. After all, it’s not what you wear, it’s how you wear it. Even if my hair was the ugliest mess this side of paradise, I could still look like a que…[Read more]

My favorite pizza is actually cheese, and my favorite writing genre is *drumroll* Fantasy! I love writing and reading and singing and walking in the rain. My favorite types of music are Broadway soundtracks, classical, and jazz.

Super excited to be in this guild!

The Drakhar, or half-dragons, look like people, except for the fact that they have huge dragon wings – which their eyes match, leading to some unusual colors. They have a bit more strength and stamina than a normal human, are able to breathe fire, and live to be around 600-650…[Read more]

It compares and contrasts the different art forms with writing. Any critique would be appreciated! 🙂

Empty pages stretch before, a canvas yet untainted.
Verbiage heaped on color pallets, waiting to be painted.
Sculptor’s chisel, writer’s red pen, cannot tell apart:
Mental the…[Read more]

(Or translated - "Hi ya'll!") in the forum Introduce Yourself https://storyembers.org/activity/p/5265/ Fri, 18 May 2018 14:58:56 -0400 @evelyn, I have to confess to a habit of doing several things at once. While I usually have one main project, I am always getting distracted by new (and shiny) story ideas. I’ll usually spend a couple days outlining these and putting down any concepts or ideas for them I have before getting back to the main project. Or, every once in a great…[Read more]

It’s nice to meet you. C. S. Lewis’ sci-fi series is amazing, but I would have to agree with your dragon and rank Narnia over it. What’s your favorite genre to write? Do you have a project you are currently working on?

(Or translated - "Hi ya'll!") in the forum Introduce Yourself https://storyembers.org/activity/p/5181/ Thu, 17 May 2018 19:33:31 -0400 Thank you for the welcome! 🙂 I like black teas (Earl Grey, Lady Grey, English Breakfast, etc.) the best, though I don’t care as much for Chai. I do drink herbal teas once in awhile, but much prefer black and green tea. Although, I have to say, the citrus teas are very good.

Like you, my favorite genre for writing is fantasy, though I have played…[Read more]

It’s always nice to meet another tea-addict. What kinds do you like? I’m afraid I won’t be able to try and convince you to switch from team Cap. I am a loyal member. So, without further ado, welcome to Story Embers! What’s your favorite genre?

It was practically my childhood, and really got me started writing Fantasy. However, my favorite Lewis book would have to be Screwtape Letters. The way he uses narrative technique and character pov in that work is just amazing. How about you?

My name is Piper and I have been writing since I was eleven years old. Right now I’m working on a full-length novel about half-dragons and what it means to forgive. Besides writing, I also love to read, sing, listen to classical and swing music, hang out with my eight siblings, and try new things. I’ve also just finished my first year…[Read more]
