What is your favorite room in your home or apartment? I wanted to get creative with this but my brain is working overtime grasping at threads to weave the tapestry of my NaNo project and it doesn't want to work on anything else right now. I tried to imagine my characters' homes and what rooms … Continue reading Prompt 175-Favorite Room

173. What modern technology would you have trouble living without? This is gonna sound so bad but I would really struggle without the internet.

Prompt 167-Anger
What has made you angry this week? The viewscreen muted the light of the small yellow star at the center of the planetary system. Veralis’s scowling face reflected back at her, hovering ominously above the blue and green planet where her troubles had begun. The primitive humanoids were irritatingly resilient.
