Wisconsin Autumns are fickle things. Much of the color has decayed into the brittle dust in the grass that quietly browns itself to sleep. Trees are but cold fingers, ever reaching for a grey sky.
It’s a time for change. For transformation.
Perhaps you will be a part of such a transformation in the Story Empire next year. Fellow Story Empire citizen Beem Weeks has posted an invitation to you, fellow creatives, to join in our adventures! I want to share his post in full here so you get all the nitty-gritty.
Greetings, SE’ers! Beem Weeks back with you again. I’m doing something a little different today. As some of you may have heard, Story Empire will be saying goodbye to some of our cherished staff writers. These wonderful individuals have shared their valuable time and vast knowledge concerning the ins and outs of the writing game, from the craft itself to publishing and promotions. As happens to all of us, life’s demands call for more of our attention. We wish each of our esteemed colleagues the very best going forward.
Okay, so here is what makes this post a bit different from the usual Story Empire fare. My post today is an open invitation to writers, editors, social media gurus, promotional experts, and anybody else who has knowledge they wish to share. If you’ve been a long-time reader or subscriber of the Story Empire blog, you’ll have a pretty good idea of what we do here.
As 2026 draws down to a close, we are looking to add 4 to 6 new members to our team here at Story Empire. Our mission has been and remains as follows:
The Story Empire authors are dedicated to providing a high-quality blog focused on the craft of writing, the business of writing, and a writer’s life. Our goal is to help others and to learn from them through fostering a respectful and interactive environment on and off our blog.
SE is a safe and respectful place for all its members. To that end, our platform is closed to political or religious commentary.
If you have something to contribute, and the time in which to do it, please let us know. Send a brief email to StoryEmpireBlog@gmail.com telling us why you feel you would be a good fit for the Story Empire team. Keep in mind there are only 4 to 6 openings up for grabs. We seek only those who have knowledge of the writing game you wish to share. We look forward to hearing from YOU!
So what say you, my friends? Will you join us in a new year full of the strange, dangerous, and wonderful? We’d love to have you! Be sure to use the email Beem provided to share your interest.
Coming up, I’ve one more podcast for the year and another post about change, one I did not expect.
