Fellow Scholars and Scribes! I bid you welcome to the third annual SCRIBE SPOTLIGHT! 🙌 mosh pit ensues 🙌
Each year we take a month to celebrate and commemorate our most diligent and talented authors. 🕺
and the amazing team over at Ecency, for continuing to support the community. As well as I'd like to give a big shout-out to 
for their amazing support of this community and music and art on Hive!All quotes in this showcase are from the spotlighted creator's works.
Our next spotlight is on a Scribe who has been with us since the very beginning. Someone who earned a spotlight the first year, and I'm happy to report has earned one again. A Scholar first, but don't think their Scribe's pen has gone dry. It is with great honor that I present to you... 🥁🥁🥁

As a Scribe, WD (that's what I call him cause we cool like that ya know) likes to tackle the fantastical. Stories outside of contemporary fiction. He is also known to partake in the gruesome and ghoulish alike. Let's take a gander at some of his works, shall we? 😌
The first work I wanted to showcase was a piece titled Mother's Loving Advice. A heartwarming piece with an air of mischief we can all relate to. Well, at least I can. 😅 The story captures what it's like to misbehave without being telly or preachy. Something only a seasoned Scribe can manage.

I love this next piece because it's very noir-esque. Princesses and Handcuffs. It's also not writing in Third-Person limited, which is always refreshing to me. The semi-Domitian perspective allows the author to play with the detective storyline in ways other perspectives lack. The way WD (yes, that's what I call him, deal with it) leverages this tool shows that he has been writing for a looong time.
A middle aged man rubbed the thick, dark hair on his chin. "Perhaps, Fiona. We aren't sure if it's connected yet, though. A place a few hours out of town was robbed yesterday. There are a few similarities, especially in how the residence was entered."
Even though we mostly talked about his writing excellence,
