Mitnick held out the black burner, pushing it at me. "Go back into town. Keep this with you now. Wait for me to call. There is much to be done in a #short time. We will need proof she lives, negotiate for her return. I will need eyes and ears in the city. You will do this." #WIPSnips #amquerying

He sprinkled sand on the #ink to make it dry. He hadn’t written anything by hand in a long time, but he felt his resignation from the family firm required a certain formality. He could have used old Dad’s blood after crushing his head in, but that seemed rather gauche #vss365 #flashfiction #skywrite
I didn't know such a thing existed so...sure?
If you create with #ink, you had best be a master of your craft or prepared to get very messy. Which are you? Let's #write. #vss365 #promptshare #flashfiction #skywrite

Fire. The #AI enthusiasts are comparing it to fire.
This, my people, is the definition of irrational exuberance.

In the beginning, there was #man. I mean, there were a lot of things, but let’s focus on what’s important, right? #vss365 #flashfiction #skywrite
How appropriate to have a #prompt as #man on April Fools day. What a piece of work. Let's #write. #promptshare #vss365 #flashfiction #skywrite
Sartre grinned at me. "Come and go from the casino as you please. Talk with Atwell. Cause trouble for Mitnick. These are the things required of you now, not watching #fools throw away their money." I nodded, but didn't say anything.

The people #exhalt their god through chanting sacrifices, throwing out their voices, while and adulation into space and the eons where they may never be retrieved. But the god rests in his realm below our own so all flows to him and thus we call him The Wealthy One. #vss365 #skywrite #flashfiction
Thank you, @smokelong.bsky.social for including us!!!
We’ll be re-opening for subs in June for our fall suffragette- themed issue (and for an unthemed issue too!)
A watercolour sketch of a crane or egret themed dragon with one wing spread, painted in the white pink and blue scheme of the trans flag. Behind it is a dark sky with a gold sun and a smattering of stars. Its beak is covered in a blood red substance and there are splashes of the same red on its wing.
My gender may be up for discussion but my right to exist is not.

Always a good time. #serial #audiofiction
Whatever I thought of Tariq, I considered killing him. His corpse would send a message to the others about trying to make peace with the American.
Tariq sensed this, took a quick #step back. That pulse of fear allowed me to keep my anger in check. #WIPSNips #amquerying #skywrite #writing
Is it a god? A purpose? A person? What do you #exalt? Let's #write. #vss365 #promptshare #flashfiction #skywrite
I wish I could write something that could speak to today's problems without sounding utterly fuckin' ridiculous.
This is like the guy who puts a signature on his text messages.
To #conduct his song, Lucifer required his all the men and women. Chained to the tortures of his underworld they would be made to sing in unison. Perhaps when they heard the noise, the children of Adam would believe in him again and stop sending so many awful sinners his way. #vss365 #flashfiction
How do you #conduct your business? Or your #writing? Or are they the same? Let's #write. #vss365 #promptshare #flashfiction #skywrite
The Old wizard Galen pulled his apprentice out of the pub without warning. "What have I done?" asked the novice. "Nothing," replied Galen, "but a tavern that serves a #sprite spirits is bound for trouble."
"Sprite? I didn't see any – "
It was then the pub exploded. #vss365 #flashfiction #skywrite
A ghost, elf, or fairy, they can be found just about anywhere. But you can you #write about it? Let's see. #vss365 #promptshare #flashfiction #skywrite
People who had a Nazi tattoo are redeemable. But they gotta put in the work and mostly that means dying in anonymity.
You don't get to go from Nazi tattoo to the fucking senate
The black cat shoots down the aisle of the bus and disappears, as #illusive as smoke in the wind. I look down the gangway of the moving vehicle to see no cat, no disturbed passengers, no exit.
No cat.
Was this the day I finally go mad?

Lots of those around these days. So many, some start to thing they're a part of on big cult.
That is smart. If Spain hadn't been abandoned by the allies, the 20th century might have gone very differently.
