## Posts

- [A Draft Begins with an Omen](https://compeanansi.com/a-draft-begins-with-an-omen/): Sometimes a story starts with no plot at all: only a damp page, a strange pause, or an image that keeps returning after the room has gone quiet.
- [Folklore Changes in the Telling](https://compeanansi.com/folklore-changes-in-the-telling/): A tale carried between tellers is never just a plot passed hand to hand. Its differences matter, and so does the place and community that give each telling its shape.
- [The Small Wonder Inside a Shadowed Tale](https://compeanansi.com/the-small-wonder-inside-a-shadowed-tale/): A dark story does not need to make every detail dreadful. Sometimes its most unsettling turn begins with a small, almost useless beauty that refuses to be ignored.
