Offering up our community of adult fiction writers.

We talk life, smut, video games, help each other learn to spot AI art, make good choices, encourage praise kink, support and are largely part of the LGBTQ community, and tease kink as often as we can.

Join us. I even post food I make sometimes.

Right? That’s so wild. All European version products also sold in the states are very different. Fanta is colored with vegetables and has something like 30% less sugar, but the USA product is colored with dyes

I bought (impulsively) an American mix for jalepheno corn bread last year when I visited the states. Today I made it. Dared to look at the ingredients. The first was sugar, followed by so many more lol. I didn’t get cornbread. I got cake.

I somehow managed to write 1k over two hours this morning with *constant* interruptions. The laundry beeping, phone calls, demands of me… Makes me feel like a multitasking rock star πŸ˜…

I’ve been adulting since I got up. Laundry, vacuuming, tidying, dishes, dusting… now making food. I love being able to *see* the results of my effort. Better when I can taste it.

Stealing memories is so messed up. Still gives me chills.

Watching the Neverending Story 2 as an adult is like a fever dream. Absolutely terrifying.

the gif isn't the actual bumble I found, it's just something in the gif library. I'm not sure if the bumble I helped is a queen, but it's likely considering it's been spring less than a week and they're usually the first to be active. Whomever it was, I hope they're busy bee-ing

they are legit my favorite garden creatures (next to spiders). I even have a tattoo. Maybe it's weird, but I talk to my garden creatures. I think it helps everything bee and grow happier

I just found a half frozen bumblebutt in the shadow of my front garden. I beathed hot air on him for a few minutes and he perked up. Moved him into the sun in the back garden and gave him some sugar water. Then he flew away πŸ₯° 🌱

HELP

Can you discern from context what "a man slouches before a door like a teenager at a dunky drive-through..." means? Specifically that underlined, spellcheck *error* of "dunky" NO I did NOT mean "funky".

I was going for alliteration but it has to convey a collectively understood meaning.

I’m feeling accomplished. Spent two hours in the garden today. Came in covered in brush AND blessed with the first spider. You know you’re a garden witch when the spiders find you
