I'm loving every single thing that has come out of the prompt workshop so far. (Every one I read makes me a little more intimidated to even start the first, which is, both good, because it means great stuff is being written, and bad, because I'm not writing right now.)
No going outside for you. I need to know the next scenes in the scifi you're writing. We will glue you to your desk and you'll be the candle that burns forever.
This is beautiful. I love your surrealist imagery and the sublime poetry of your luminous words. Absolutely breathtaking. Breathless after reading this haunting spiraling tale inside the darkness of the human mind and our animal nature
I tried to go hard on the feral, and also I don't think anyone realizes it was a weird vampire short. But I loved writing the intensity of it. Thank you for all your kind words. It was a different character for me, I'm used to strong resilience and I also think it's a good balance between the two.
isnt it intriguing that strangers can come together and make an explosion of casual
visual linguistic complexity like this just from three words. i mean the prompts are random and some quite juicy words in the mix on their own... but put it together and what have you got indeed!
even though the grammar is fucked up and the syntax and there are non sequiters and the odd orphan ... like "wobbled"... (that's for jelly and custard, mary poppins, not murder in the back of a car)... but yet it all paints a better picture than if you used exquisite prose and laborousily explained the scenes. could that even be done to tell Edith's story like Jane Austen or Charles Dickens would? you just couldnt do it.
im kind of grinning a nasty seething grin. and there is no emoji for that one.
Besides I think trying to write like the classics I'd find it to be too boorish. It would be a level of control that would make me sleepy. I need the chaos to reign free.
My grammar is always fucked up. None of my shit on here is edited. If I edited it, I would pass it off to Emil Ottoman. A lot of my shit is metaphors, metaphors, metaphors. I was more into Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre growing up. Perhaps that's where the dominance in female voices come from, even if I wrote exquisite prose, it would lose its grit, the potential rawness and evoke feeling. While we can always appreciate the classics they were from a time, where I would've definitely been burned at the stake and been labeled "witch" or a beheading on the guillotine. My stories began getting banned in primary school anyway, this is finally a place where I can be free. :)

Yeah but you're busy right now. You'll write later. There is plenty of time.
NOT IF I GET HIT BY A BUS!!!!

Which sci-fi? I have to do the prompting before I go back to the Youtube astronaut and old Nick in the desert.
at rinds of sorrow, i took a big breath. Cool flow Edith.
Thank you, that was also my favorite as well. I try to play with lots of words. Think of them differently and how they might feel in the moment.
