What is something you have learned lately?

Prompt 112-Middle
Write about the middle of something, anything! Dust fell from the ceiling as a thunderous crash sounded far above. The bunker rattled with the force and whimpers rippled among the people sheltering against the storm. Mothers cradled children close, whispering reassurances in their ears, doing their best to quiet them. Their hushing sounded like a … Continue reading Prompt 112-Middle
Week 21
Hello, hello! I hope you all had a lovely weekend! I spent mine house-hunting and watching tennis. This Wimbledon was insane.

Would have loved for her to have won the trophy, but Kerber was the better … Continue reading Week 21
Prompt 111-Unwanted Task
What do you have to do today that you really would rather not do? Faelurion Amadestia rubbed her temples as she pored over the documents on her desk. Intelligence briefings. Weapons inventory.

Prompt 108-Theme of the Week
If this week had a theme to it, what would yours be? Pirates. If Kita thought back to the point her simple life went off the rails, it was when she joined ranks with pirates. She scowled.

Prompts 106-107
106. Where do you like to do your journaling? At a desk, in your bed, at the coffee shop? Hahaha, yes. Real talk though, I don’t really “journal.” When I get an idea I jot it down on the nearest piece of paper or, failing that, make a memo in my phone. I try to … Continue reading Prompts 106-107
Week 20
Oh hey, it's Sunday already. Time for another weekly update. This was a weird week, what with a holiday smack dab in the middle.
