First, because I haven’t been around. That’s completely my fault. I had actually forgotten about this account altogether. I became quite occupied with StoryEmbers.org and so this one completely slipped my mind.

If you would like me to begin posting bits and pieces here again, I shall do that sometime “soon”.

Today is when I plan to start.

Let’s get started…

This first bit is the first part of a character interview. Well, of sorts. You’ll see. Warning, it is over 1K words and it’s not finished.

Should I move over to Story Embers, also? Or would I be better off just staying here?
