Author Update 🖊️ First, I reworked the reunion call in the WIP, and felt better about it - now to finish and get the second convo Also, I fought valiantly, and am back in my XBox account after 3 attempts, only to click Halo and 2000-yard stare at a 68GB update Ugh... #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

When the literal shit hits the literal fan, Cole is thankful for his friends/colleagues supporting him on his grief The moment is the end of Jimmy's turn-around, going from perpendicular to parallel (I got it right, Bookfox!) #QueerPrompts #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #ReaderSky #BookSky

"Could you #Elaborate? I don't #Understand you when you give your #Sage advice in riddles." Yerring murmured. "It's meant to #Challenge you, to further your horizons." "I'm a Luddite, and ypu have no #Decency. Talk plainly, or finish your quest yourself." #InkMine #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

He stalked the #Shoal, feet dainty into and out the water without aplasheshis thin spear up ready to-- It shot in, he yanked a writhing, hissing eel out of the water, and fought to crick its neck * For the Burramattagal people of the Dharug nation * #WildWalkPrompt #WritimgCommunity #ReaderSky

She watched the #murmuration with entranced eyes, the starlings scattered cloud then a thick sheet that folded in and out of itself everywhere at once Then she saw quantum fluctuations, Higgs fields weaving, matter made out of light in the young universe #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #Reader$ky

Boughs of #holly? Check. Mistletoe? Check. Baubles and tinsel? Check. Singing, dancing, and merriment? Check. A dozen different winter festivals brought together with the Feast of the Nativity? Check. Christmas confirmed. #WildWalkPrompt #WritingCommunity #Readersky

He #timed the rage hew to perfection, his foe opened up collar to diaphragm, a bloody gasp expelled before he drew his sword out His foe fell feeble and crying, and he finished the man off with a thrust to the neck, the tribunal satisfied his cause was right #vss365 #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

#Valiant he rode at the front of his retinue, lance piercing the sky, the colours of his lord on the banner behind him We clamoured to see him as he rode through our town, his name changed, our lavender thrown onto his path, his kind nods to us our delight #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

Author Update 🖊️ I found I'm blocked on the WIP, and this morning, saw the reason why - crutching with the MC's colleagues/friends Gotta breeze over that and get to the LI phone call, there's more catching up to do Time to bite the nails until Thirsday #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

They cut the #Feative joy, the trees stripped bare, the presents destroyed, the merriment banned, "Devilry polluting the true meaning of Christmas" But their time came, their own devilry revealed, and as they faded ashamed, the Christmas joy returned #WildWalkPrompt #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

With mythology being a topic often featured in pop culture, we tend to overlook the fact that these were real religions and beliefs that impacted decisions made by leaders at the height of their influence. Interest in exploring some of the ways it impacted history? #writingcommunity #mythology

They sought the purity of #form, masculinity expressed in gym junkiness, fight clubs, tough and emotionless interiors and exterioura subservient women, and animosity against all things deemed woke But they were fragile, weak, nothing of what they idealised #InkMine #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

The acid from her lips bit through to the #bone I'd sworn myself to her, been everything right and good, but all I got was judgement and accusation I should've told her. Why didn't I? I didn't because of the trauma, and now I'm all alone. #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

Author Update 🖊️ Welp, work be crazy, lots of customers coming and going in my car park Hectic? Yes Stressful? Also yes Am I hitting the Nicorette Quick Mist a little too hard? Hell yes But 2.5 weeks off vapes plus the heart meds are working, I'll take that win #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

Near the village of Watkins Glen weaves a 400-foot-deep gorge flowing with waterfalls dancing amongst pools of clear water. Stone footbridges and paths cut into the very rock bring visitors to the ravine. #dnd #ttrpg #fantasy #writing 📷️: Pure Passion Photography; Markus Bar; & Stephanie B.

For Day 22, I hope readers pick up on Cole's charm and occasional cheeky swagger, plus his good nature But I want them to remember how supportive and understanding he is, as well as his strength facing and overcoming some pretty heavy moments #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

#legal proceedings with the #nasa Goddard #space #flight Center continue, as now more members of #congress have called for an #investigation into the agency's closure of this facility. Our #staff #writer @joshdinner has the story: www.space.com/space-explor...

"Alright people, it's time to do the #tangle." I frowned. "Don't you mean the tango?" "Nope, tangle. It's much more fun." "And what is it exactly?" "Oh, it's writhing, heated mess. Think twister crossed with interpretive dance." "Okay..." #WildWalkPrompt #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

He bit the creature's hand, sank his teeth into blood, beat the face with his fists, and broke #free of its clutches as it wailed He turned everywhere, saw a sword stuck in a body, grabbed it, and spun and swung it through the creature's neck #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

The tree grove exploded, and #flames licked at the moon as horrid screams echoed across the battlefield Then the ground ruptured, and dwarves surged at us, so many cut down, then Lord Gerrin's son fell Gerrin cried, and dropped his flag to surrender #WildWalkPrompts #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

Lander shouted, "Our foe is at Gereon Bridge. We'll give them comfort, and ride at dawn Kellian growled. "Or we go now. We've bivvied there, we know it, let's take them tonight." The army cheered, and Lander blinked. "So be it." And the camp sprung to #action. #vss365 #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

We got to the #bend in the river, the horses tired but our quarry across the water Shallows found, we forded, found the trail, and rode on into the wilderness, our irons gleaming in the hot sun And at last, we chanced on the posse, and put them down #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReadrrSky #BopkSky

You stripped me #bare, no fibre missed, no thought unknown I fell into your embrace, cradled in mosses, tangled in vines, and drawn into the tree They will call me a dryad, and I will watch this grove to the end, and all who trespass will know my wrath #WildWalkPrompt #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

"Once inhaled, the #spore nestles in the lung, and grows in a thin layer, not enough to shorten your breath while it takes over the tissue" "But underneath, more are released into the body, taking it over and destroying the host until only it remains." #WildWalkPrompt #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

We #lurk in the shadows, humans, yours, your arts and constructions, and especially your lies and deceits. You feel our faint tendrils, yet you cannot place them, a shiver, a discomfort brushed or scratched off. But the Day of Reveal draws near... #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

#Radiant the light that shone that first night, out eyes open to Her beauty and majesty. No more slumber in the Mist, Her glory wakes us and gives us life. Sanctify us, Pale Lady, for in your sight our lives sing of your magnificence forever. #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

The creature stalked the halls, #reality shattered around it, it's harsh breath vicious as it broke doors seeking flesh One by one, victims fell to it, too scared to move or scream, their deaths brutal and bloody But none sated its hunger. It needed a virgin #vss365 #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

Abbott is trying to convince us that drag shows are the real threat to children in public spaces. Meanwhile, firearms are the leading cause of fatalities among children and teens in Texas. Priorities are skewered, to say the least. #lgbt #dragqueens #lgbtqrights #texas #dragshow #drag

Author Update 🖊️ My distraction drug, Diablo II, has crashed - the GPU-side fan on my laptop died so it now turns off at high temps I guess it's for the best, I was obsessing over builds rather than the WIP and facing reality Here's to some sanity #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky #BookSky

Author Update 🖊️ Nope, it's not good - my heart is weak and I'm at risk of a faint/drop dead heart attack But it's not all bad, I got some meds, there'll be diet and lifestyle changes, and we'll see in 2 weeks if I've improved or need a defibrillator Please don't vape #WritingCommunity

Author Update 🖊️ Been quiet, I'm agonizing over Diablo II Resurrected builds #RPGLife And I had my angiogram, spent 10 mins in the tumble dryer, then 1 hr in obs Results tomorrow, I know they won't be good, but we can see about fixing my heart #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #ReaderSky #BookSky

You can have my em-dash when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers. #Writing #Author #AI

Oh fantasy #Geography, thou art a heinous insult, impassable mountain ranges traversed only by narrow goat paths or conveniently-linked caves filled with danger Why, this desert lies next to a marsh, this river hath no delta, and alas, it's on one mere island #vss365 #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

Rebecca fanned herself. "I say, that Mr Derbyshaw is quite the #Character." "Oh, indeed," June smiled. "He mightn't be in possession of a great fortune, but that handsomeness, charm, audacity--wait, where are you going?" "I'm off to pick up, as they say." #Whistpr #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky
