Welcome to The Ink Well Golden Quill Writer Showcase!

In this series, we are selecting one writer to showcase in each edition. The selected writer may be a rising star or an author whose work consistently demonstrates the writing skills we promote in our writing prompts and our catalog of fiction writing tips.

In all cases, The Ink Well Golden Quill will showcase a community member in good standing in The Ink Well who regularly publishes in our community and supports other community members by reading and commenting on their work.

In addition to showcasing one of the author's recent stories, we will also reward a Golden Quill badge to the writer.

Story Excerpt: A Bone's Wish

“Guess what, Mr.? I dreamt of my mother last night. She looked happy, so I decided not to visit her in the world of the dead anymore.” He pulled something out of his pants pocket. It was the longest portion of the wishbone we used, the last we made the deal. “I read that if you keep the longer part of a wishbone, you will be lucky. It can make your wish come true like miracles really exist.”

— @idlemind

What We Loved

A gifted writer can make you love any character — whether it's an ugly extra terrestrial, a robot sorting through trash in a post-apocalyptic world, or a dead person who is nothing but a skeleton. @idlemind achieves this with character development that makes the skeleton — Mr. Toni — charming, sympathetic and endearing. She weaves a story that is splendid and heartwrenching, using all of the elements we look for in the best stories.

Author Accolades

@idlemind has the ability to pull us right into the story with rich, compelling language, and to create a scenario and conflict that keeps us riveted all the way through.

Well done, @idelmind. Keep writing!

To collect your badge, please pop into the #ask-theinkwell channel in our Discord server, and we'll send you your badge in DM.
