"Don't forget to wash your hands, kiddo."
"Yes, Dad."

While waiting for today's prompt, let me quickly catch up with last week's #SundaySnips “quench” - a word that I've not used, but have the perfect vibe match for it! “Petrichor and the Bone” a 1500 word cozy folk horror still looking for a home #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress

#SundaySnips from a story that's looking for a home—a part of me feels like rewriting it as an Omela inspired story (it's not too far off in concept, and would be a small fix) #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress

Here's the only time I've used “nourishment” in my work, currently a stand alone story (sent for a competition), with a potential to be a much bigger book. if you enjoyed the snip, check out my Patreon: www.patreon.com/c/lucidillus... #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress #AmWriting

From one of my horror stories, which is still looking for a home~~ (I won't mind if it ends up in an upside down magazine either) #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress #AmWriting #WriteEditSubmit

The word for #SundaySnips is “yearn” so sharing a piece about an Eldritch God who set out the Four Horsemen, but they weren't meant to attack his precious personal project (just everything else) Read it here: www.patreon.com/posts/136530... #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress

From a story that I wrote some time back, but haven't been able to revisit and edit (I also need to figure out where to send it). So here's an excerpt from “The Gilded Taxidermy” (working title) with the word ‘wither’ for #SundaySnips #WritingCommunity #Writingprompt #Writesky #HQpress #AmWriting

Today's #wss366 prompt word is "drain"--good, yes? So far in the hashtag we have contributions from @kalloway, from @stevendbrewer, from @extraspecialbitter, and from me. I fully expect @tobadzistsini to put in an appearance too (but no pressure 😉)
Is it too #draining to write a little something today? Or would it perhaps be restorative? Check out the hashtag so far and see if inspiration hits.
