The Fire of Hope
We carry this fire by finding ways to infuse reminders that even in the darkest of times even the tiniest of hopes can do amazing things.
ABOUT EMBERWAKE
Stories Are Just the Beginning.
An invitation to push beyond.
At EmberWake, we believe stories can do more than entertain. They can challenge perspectives, inspire creativity, and bring people together. Every story is an opportunity to imagine something different—and perhaps find the courage to make it real.
WHO WE ARE
A Home for Stories and the People Who Love Them.
We believe stories can change the world. But storytellers and the people who love their stories need a place to come together.
EmberWake is a creative company built around that belief. We create imaginative worlds and meaningful experiences, while fostering spaces where creators and communities can connect, collaborate, and celebrate the power of storytelling.
Our stories are where we begin. The relationships, creativity, and possibilities they inspire are how we carry their impact beyond the page.
OUR PURPOSE
Imagination With Purpose.
Our Mission
To create stories and experiences that inspire hope, challenge perspectives, and bring people together, while supporting creators and building literary communities where creativity can flourish.
Our Vision
A world where storytelling does more than entertain—where the connections and ideas sparked by stories help people imagine and create a better future.
OUR CORE VALUES
What We Believe.
Three convictions at the heart of EmberWake. They shape the stories we tell, the experiences we create, and the impact we hope to leave behind.
There is always Hope.
Injustice is a fact of life; we must expose it.
Light cannot be understood without the dark.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Our Lines in the Sand.
Our values shape what we create. Our commitments guide how we create it, the decisions we make, and the relationships we build along the way.
- No AI-written fiction
- Never chase trends
- Never sacrifice quality for profit
- Never exploit creators
- Never cultivate outrage for engagement
OUR GUIDING FRAMEWORK
The Five Fires.
Everything we do must feed at least one of these fires. If it does not, we don't do it.
The Fire of Creativity
We carry this fire by creating opportunities for others to make discoveries in their own creativity or appreciate that of others.
The Fire of Wisdom
We carry this fire by fostering the sharing of experiences as a way to pass on knowledge whether it be about creative pursuits or the navigation of life.
The Fire of Community
We carry this fire by creating and fostering opportunities for people to come together to share their experiences and stories of their own to build a stronger community.
The Fire of Legacy
We carry this fire by fostering the growth of young creators and those that appreciate the arts because it is the next generation that will step up to take the reins when our chapters come to a close.
