Another Saturday, another morning #writing club. This week's prompt: The Typo. We had codeword mess-ups, big contracts foiled, inheritances nearly stolen & a manipulative assassin as our short stories. Have a go & let me know what you come up with. 15 - 20 mins. Let the words fall from your brain.

SOON! My book launch in #SanDiego at @mystgalaxybooks.bsky.social for THE INN AT THE AMETHYST LANTERN! Written under alt name J. Dianne Dotson, out on 24 October via Android Press. I’ll be in conversation with my husband @garethlpowell.bsky.social! Info: www.mystgalaxy.com/event/101023...

Well, I told you there were hoverbikes! Editors, are you ready for this one? I think this fantastical world was born of a youth obsessed with The Matrix, Dragonball Z, Garth Nix & Scott Westerfield.

Rereading my MS before sending to my amazing agent @losbennett.bsky.social. And as much as it makes me cringe to admit, I really love it. A powerful coming-of-age #YA #fantasy where a teenage girl embraces her mixed heritage & her own hidden truth. Watch out for this #writingcommunity & #editors!

Sunday mornings are writing club mornings. Our prompt today was mythical creatures and night-time fire alarms. My short story was titled 'Bakhtut, or the Adventures of a Night Hag'. The opening line? Sleep paralysis is the bane of my life. #writingcommunity

Change is in the air, underscored by struggle and fear. It clouds the greying skies; an oozing discontent that's whispered across borders, across classes, across cultures. A cat's tail twitches, and the universe shouts back: 'We were meant to be so much more than this.'

Just found out that my auntie is the mystery stranger who saved this person's life! @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social - you assumed she was a man!

Hello world! My name is Sophia and I write books about outsiders with magical powers, obsess about my cats, and generally fail at keeping my house tidy and my admin up-to-date. I do my best work sat with awful posture on the sofa & a cat at my side.
