Put this one in the #archive, this stolen moment, dappled with late-August freckles, sun-baked and slow, floating in water so clear it's barely there. File it under B for Bliss.

She had the personality of burnt #toast, unbuttered. Her words came out dry and bitter, left you choking on crumbs. If blandness were lethal, she'd already have a body count.

Officer Thibodeau's first mistake was letting the young vandals off with a #warning, but his worst mistake was failing to confiscate the backpack of eggs that now adorn his garage.

Choosing to #lodge with predators does not always mean you're not prey. Sometimes, it just means your turn to be eaten is deferred until no one weaker can be found.

The crush felt like persistent #hiccups, jolting her anew each time she allowed herself to think it was over. If only holding your breath were a cure for unrequited love.

The #constellation of carpet dents, all that remained of Winona. She'd taken even the curtains, as if the trace of perfume they carried was more of her than he deserved.

It wouldn't be April without #30words30days so I'm hoping that @danielle-baldock.bsky.social doesn't mind if I carry on the tradition with some prompts of my own. Much love and respect for the connections she built and wishing her the best ❤️

The 30-word microfiction stories I wrote for #30Words30Days in September while on the 5-week road trip with my black lab, Jet. 🚍 🐶 ✍️ #dogs #vanlife #roadtrip #uluru #writing #microfiction #30wordstories
Watched #TheBeatlesAnthology 2025 on #DisneyPlus last night. Recalled #30Words30Days #30wordstory I wrote in June: The Genie granted three wishes. I'm now rich and there's world peace. What's my third? Shaking my jewellery at the 1964 Royal Variety Performance. "Well, shake it up, ba-by, now!" 🎸

Jade started out pretty green about storytelling.
However, after receiving sage advice to try the #30words30day challenge, she now pines for the daily prompt and (o)lives to tell viridescent tales.

Ha ha, I'd love it if you tried them. You can find examples under #30Words30Days (which happens in April, June and September normally), as well as #30Words365.
I'll post the one which I've pinned to my other profile.

Hello #30words30dayscommunity
I’ve got a lot of turmoil going on just now, so sadly I won’t be #prompting this #November
Look forward to seeing you all in April for #30words30days
Meanwhile, Happy Writings! ✏️😁

September 2025's #30Words30Days challenge coincided with a #roadtrip I'd planned from #Sydney to #Uluru with my dog. Despite being on the road, I was determined to write and post my daily #30wordstories. ❤️ ✍️ 🚍 🐶 #writers #writing #microfiction #dogs #vanlife
Thanks, I’ve been missing #30words30days so thought it was about time!
