Fellow Scholars and Scribes! I bid you welcome to the second annual SCRIBE SPOTLIGHT! π bottles break all over π
Each year we take a month to celebrate and commemorate our most diligent and talented authors. πΊ
π§Ή HOUSEKEEPING π§Ή
Check out the latest Scholar and Scribe Invitational. super special #RiseOfThePixels edition! You won't want to miss it!
All quotes in this showcase are from the spotlighted creator's works.
We're keeping the no-brainer for the last folk! She started our spotlights last time, so it is only fitting that she end them this year. Without a doubt our most consistent member, and maybe the most creative. She writes, she draws, she plays roleplaying campaigns. Guys, gals, and non-binary pals, it is my pleasure to bring to you... π₯π₯π₯
π mellindor π
Mellster (but you can also call her Melli) has been a part of a D&D campaign with her friends since before I knew how to walk. Impressively, she's managed to chronicle this game in her writing with vivid detail capturing the spirit of a roleplaying adventure. Even more impressive is the amount of time she has kept up with it. Even more more impressive? Her constant and steady improvement as a writer. Even more constant than a Swiss watch I tell ya.
What? She can also draw? How is that fair? I dunno, life isn't fair. If you want further proof of this statement check out this absolutely humongous index of Mellster's works.
@mellindor's world and characters are vast. Her DM, @marydm, created the world and regularly put their group in peril. All for the sake of entertainment. For those unaware, yes, D&D DMs are sadistic. I love her snappy and quick-witted dialogue, apt for a party of adventurers. Of whom everyone knows Bruno is the best. But dialogue is not the only thing Melli is good at. Over the years her scene setting and action pieces have gotten substantially better written. So much so that I bet if I gave you a piece of hers from 2 years ago, you wouldn't be able to recognize it was her.
Mary couldnβt think straight. Whom did they know? Lilly and Bramble? What could they do with a warning like this? They werenβt influential people, they couldnβt warn anybody else. They were justβ¦ Lilly and Bramble. The only thing they could do was run away from the city.
The adventure is still ongoing so there's no real way of linking something that does not spoil something else. π @mellindor dedication not only to her craft but to the world she and her friends have created, is something I have not seen on Hive. I am personally honored she has chosen Scholar and Scribe as the home for her adventures.
Suddenly, the dragon's real form burst out of the tavern, crumbling the whole building under her massive claws. She was feral now. Her movements were erratic, her eyes filled with fury and madness. She thrashed around and destroyed a few more of the nearby houses. Her sword--in its actual size now--flared up. She swung it wildly and cut down a few bystanders whoβd come in her way.
A scribe, an artist, a friend. Scholar and Scribe wouldn't be the same without her. Mellster I wish nothing but 5the best for you and yours, and I hope you keep writing until you cannot write anymore. Your personal growth has been a gem to witness, and your talents are boundless. I hope your GM goes easy on you (or maybe not, we want a more compelling narrative after all). π It is an absolute privilege to end this year's spotlights with you, ma'am. π₯
Impressive! Congratulations, @mellindor. A well deserved spotlight! You're an incredible writer and an all-round artist. I've always enjoyed reading your Mary Windfiddle's Adventures. I know I have some catching up to do with the recent chapters. We're honoured to have you write with us.

#dreemerforlife
Thank you so much! π
Thanks so much for everything, I appreciate
Thank you so much
thank you very much, greetings to all dreamers.
Thank you so much! β€οΈ
Thank you so much for the spotlight, @grocko ! Your words mean a lot to me!
BUT, I need to ask you to make a correction! I'm not the one running our D&D game, I'm just a player! Neither the world, nor the map are my creation! They're both created by the amazing @marydm, our DM. Please, @grocko, make sure you mention those facts as I don't want to take credit for something I haven't done. I'm just the scribe and illustrator of the story, as well as the person who controls Mary Windfiddle's actions and thoughts.
The other things that you said, about me developing my writing and being persistent with my posts - that I can take credit for βΊοΈ And I really appreciate your wonderful words! β€οΈ
Funny thing is I knew that already. Youβve told me on several occasions. I didnβt mean for it to come off that way. But Iβll give the DM a shoutout to make it clearer.
Thanks for the DM shout-out. Can you just fix those three inaccuracies so that I can share the post without it weighing on my consciousness? βΊοΈ
I'm not running the game, just playing; the world is created by our DM; and so is the map.
Thank you!
Thank you, @grocko, my friend! β€οΈ
Congratulations, @mellindor ! You do deserve it! It's been two years since the beginning of these posts and there is no end in sight. I'm excited to see you find your own style and take ownership of this work. You have developed a great sense for my nonsense and I'm glad to say it is fire writ upon the page. You truly are an awesome player and writer and I'm forever grateful for meeting you and the rest of our gang.
I'd love to see you write some of the story up from a DM perspective and post it in Hive, @marydm π
Some of the ideas and BBEG's you cook up are just brilliant ! Your work creating the adventures is the foundation that gives @mellindor something to write about - truly a wonderful team π
Me telling everyone just how amazing I am? Sounds good!
Jokes aside I'd love to do many things of that nature, including publish some of my adventures for everyone to use, but man is life busy right now!
I will try and write a bit to see if inspiration hits me! Thank you for the kind words!
This is a well deserved accolades @mellindor , you are truly an amazing writer and a star.
