The hardest part is getting the words out. You have to dig out the clay before you can sculpt it.

A: Let's do a predictive text game! Like, type in "I am a..." and then whatever words your phone recommends.
B: Haha that was crazy!
A: Yeah, that's how we're going to do everything now.

Words through a window:
Muffled, present, tingling like
the fuzz on a #peach

The neighbors have a dog, a baby, and a maid. I just have #sentient walls.

The walls follow me room to room. They whimper for my attention. They groan ugly scrapes and hum a high pitched squeal when I rebuke them. Cry for me at night.

I can only imagine how they manage when I'm not here.

Missed Connection

You were the #audacious blonde who refused to pay the plastic bag tax and held up JewelOsco self-checkout.

Me: Mr. Manners, offered you a dime that you rejected.

I dine daily at the Fullerton Starbucks at 10am daily, in a Cubs cap.

But who am I to tell you what to do?

Spine stiff like old growth.
Pain climbs my back: Refreshing
To feel a new hurt.

Lol love this.

I want to say I would read an expanded version, but why expand perfection?

Treble + bass. Salt + pepper. PB? Meet J.

Not us. Our incongruencies were not jigsawed. Out to eat, the hosts assumed separate parties. Hotel reception: befuddled.

Sunrise, on the road, I watched you sleep shotgun. You weren't everything that wasn't me, but everything I did not yet know.

Has some nice rhythms with the sections with repeated word patterns! I enjoyed the read.

I do this sometimes but then I hit dead ends or road bumps. Then I come crawling back to the outline.

After the "honeymoon phase" with a new project, it is a war of attrition.

It's why sometimes I like grinding out as much of a project as I can at the start.

Life does not always allow me to get far though πŸ˜…

Really enjoyed this line:

Good luck! Sometimes, a close deadline is better than no deadline at all.

I was dressed as a king. My spoils: Reese's cups, Hershey kisses, #pixie stix.

The reward was the trove itself. My precious hoard. A rush greather than any sugar high. The veritable mountain.

I had candy to last for weeks, but I couldn't bring myself to eat a piece of it.

Thanks for the effort in compiling this, @danigracewrites.bsky.social!

Pretty much all of them change my mood, and very few of them for the better... πŸ₯Ή

Shauna,

Coldblooded harpy. Thief of hearts and half-smoked spliffs. Queen of #sass, breather of molten truths. Tender lover. Temptress of young bartenders at Mulligans. My bruise that heals and returns in a new spot

Come back to me. Or, at least, bring back my Ford Fiesta.

You are going back to 1st with a renewed perspective on why it has to be 1st πŸ˜„

It's all steps forward, even when there are steps backwards.

Nothing like constraint to make you grind out the utility of a few characters here and there.

A super condensed version of something I've had in my head as, "Night of the Living House"

After the renovations, I wonder: Did we have to see the noises as invasions into our humble flat?

What if, instead, the noises meant protection?

Neighbors like guardian #angels, watching daytime television inside our walls, dragging funiture on the ceiling, to let us know we're not alone.

Tried my hand at writing in in a flow and sneaking in "drop" from the WIP Snip. Musing on "Signs She is Angry."

Nothing like a strong sense of place to move you to write. Little nooks like these feel like a world of their own.
