Tempting Tephra

An Anti-Canonical Pentolan Chrestomathy

About the Book

In the hyper-fantastical bronze age megalopolis of Pentola, Tephra is the energy that suffuses all things amd lends folk the power to rewrite reality.

Sometimes, though, people just want an answer, any answer, because the not knowing is the worst part. When that yearning is strong enough, some people simply tempt tephra, the power of the world, though the answer is rarely what is expected.

Tempting Tephra is a ten-page zine of random tables, including magic items, rumors, events, people, and places, each table with its own spread.

StudioSTL Writing & Publishing Center

Write & Shine!
http://www.studiostl.org

StudioSTL empowers St. Louis youth to discover, develop, and celebrate their individual voices through writing. Our volunteer writing mentors work one-on-one with youth on writing and publishing projects that build writing skills and appreciation for the power of the written word.

Since 2005, StudioSTL has worked with St. Louis youth, ages 6 to 18, to publish five bound anthologies, seven newspapers, and countless superhero trading cards. We believe that writing is an essential life tool and that skill-building requires personal attention and feedback. Our writing mentors work in small groups with youth through all phases of the writing and thinking process. The result is a young mind trained to think and to appreciate writing in all of its many forms: a well-crafted poem or essay, a thank you note, a job application, or a story about an imaginary river squid!
