Welcome to The Story Scrapbook, a fiction newsletter by E.B. Howard! If you’re new in town, check out my Fiction Directory for navigation.

The Drafting Table is my exclusive section for paid subscribers. In these posts, I share tentative posting schedules, show you some of my notes for works in progress, ramble about my characters and storyworlds, drop exclusive character art and design sketches, and whatever else I feel like doing that month. Support my work and get an inside look at my process!

$5 for one month or $30 for twelve.
