“A fort that contains infinity now.”
A nostalgic poem where childhood spaces become whole worlds — and memory builds what time can’t erase.

These are super ugly, right? I mean, no accounting for taste or whatever, but Blech!
Am I crazy or is this horrific? 🤔
Also, the verbiage is crazy-wrong: “How Sneakers Meets Flats.”
Tbh, I’m embarrassed that most of my career not spent creatively #writing & reporting has been in #marketing, but it didn’t used to be nearly this bad, I feel.
Maybe that’s self serving & defensive 😅

He is #livid
that no one
listens to him
even his wife
and his children
humour him
but there is
no respect
due his position
but they are smart
to not rock the boat
and wait.

Prompt: It's finally time to return to your homeland... with an army. Screams of terror echo behind us. The baker and her delicious canelés; the amethyst-loving blacksmith; the retired local shopkeeper. As I walk the forest path, my minions marching behind me, I realize I never knew their names depite my youth spent here. We halt before the gate, the great manor looming over us. My hands tremble as I draw my sword from its sheath. I can finally keep my vow. I can finally do what I should have done years ago. I will save my sibling from that monster. No matter the cost.
Finally got to create a SnipFic account! Here's the first story I posted there: open.snipfic.com/snipfic/LkH6...

I used to think consistency meant writing every day. Now I think it means not making it dramatic when you miss a day.

As a writer this fills my soul with cold dread & fear. What are we doing? The human creative spirit is a basic instinct, Jung named it as such, an essential part of being a human & a way to channel our soul & spirit into something material & of value to the world. #writers #writing #authors #AI
Again, research.

The nuances in these sayings are the point. Agreeing with others does not make one smarter. Curiosity is actually a good thing. And a real patriot works to improve their nation and cares about its people.

A portrait of a man with long brown hair, a beard, and glasses, wearing a white shirt and looking slightly to the side. Text on the image reads, “Wolfgang Hohlbein – German fantasy author.”

After not #writing for a bit, I started fresh yesterday with no plan, just a paragraph and desire.
Ended up on page 17 before the day was up and hoping to continue today. I’m sure, at some point, I’ll get stuck moving forward but just maybe…

Scent of clovers
wafts in satin showers,
glowing stars illuminate
the newly blooming flowers,
magical sprites
draped in loveliness
glide upon crystal springs
their moonlit wings shimmer,
the ethereal forest fascinates.

I feel a little bad deleting my MC's father from existence, but I'm cutting extraneous characters from the book so I can better develop the remaining ones, and he wasn't doing much plotwise. She'll just have to deal with being an orphan now on top of everything else. #booksky #writing #author
