Our Featured Writer of the Week is Louise

Louise has been an active and enthusiastic member of StoriesSpace since its beginning. Her quality submissions consist of poetry, flash fiction and a quirky detective series containing some memorable lines and wonderful visuals. Her poems range from lighthearted to emotion-filled and always leave an impression on the reader.

Her recent submission, The Celebration of Sound, was a popular entry in our first ever writing competition, an "Anniversary" themed contest where her poem won third place.

Louise has received two Editor's Picks for her work, one for the previously mentioned contest winner and another for her poem entitled We Had a Fight Today, a powerful and touching piece exploring the long-lasting effects of child abuse.

Comments on her writing from fellow StoriesSpace members include: "Amazingly dark and powerful piece." Mojo

"You have a vocabulary I might never master. Awesome stuff, especially the first verse." Patrick

"Very poignant and well told...you have a way of expressing yourself in a conversational manner...very comfortable to read you." Dreamcatcher

And, "This just keeps getting better and better! Highly enjoyable yarn you're spinning, Louise!" Magnificent1Rascal

If you haven't already read Louise's work I highly recommend checking out the selection on offer in her profile. Her warm and personable writing style is one of which I'm sure you'll become a fan.






Thanks for stopping by!

This Week at StoriesSpace

We've welcomed two new moderators to the team and several new members at StoriesSpace this past week. Our latest members are: littlebird26, tradford, hudson, loneyheart, cmdrsue, DavidPendragon1 and MJWriter.

Sherzahd and DirtyMartini are now providing some much needed (and appreciated!) help on the admin side of the site. They've quickly settled into their new roles and are both doing a fantastic job.

Tony Radford has submitted some wonderful poetry covering topics such as homeless veterans, sailing and cancer. His work is well worth a look.

Lonelyheart has shared a touching tribute to her father.

Cmdrsue's Vampire Thoughts provides a brief glimpse inside the mind of a vampire.

And finally, DavidPendragon1 has submitted two clever, lighthearted poems that I'm sure you'll enjoy.

The StoriesSpace community is an encouraging and entertaining environment for both writers and avid readers. We'd love to see you drop in and visit or join as a member (all areas of the site are free). There are lots of quality writers awaiting your feedback!

Thank you for reading.
