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: Their Yellow Eyes
As the hours passed, the storm subsided and the sky cleared. The moon was once again illuminating the night. José Eduardo had fallen asleep and through the window my dad had a vision of a beautiful animal, a puma, standing on the rocks, staring at him.
For a moment he had a premonition and quickly woke up his friend. "Quickly we have to get out of here". At that moment, a loud sound of falling rocks told them that they could not waste time. They grabbed the rescue backpack and ran out of the train into the forest. The rocks had fallen on the locomotive, burying it completely. My father and José Eduardo were still staring in disbelief at the disaster.
