Huzzah ππͺ Thanks so much for reading my story!
Yay! Thanks so much, Yvonne ππͺ
Wow. This short story by @brandoncase101.bsky.social absolutely ripped out my heart before transforming into something so much more. Go check it out.

My story βThe Death of Demonsβ is out today!
It follows a swordsman stuck, haunted by an old mistake, and given the opportunity to face his pastβ¦
β¦And itβll defy your expectations all the way to that intense conclusion βοΈπ€
This piece means a lot to me, and Iβd love if you gave it a read!

Double issue of MicroVerse Spec Flash Roundup with Oct-Nov recs!
Aaah, I love Ball and Cassiopeia
and Small Wonders! π€β€οΈπ°οΈ
Please give them a read, itβs
βSuch a Simple Thingβ as
Ray Lamontagne (and Cassi) would say,
just beware paper hearts to flame.
Billy (aka Bilbo Waggins) has a smile to spare. Best wishes to you and your family.
I have a new audio story βJackpot Godβ out on Simultaneous Times!
Harold lost his family in an accident
But an artificial god transforms the economy into a lottery game thatβs βpray to winβ
The ultimate prize: a wish (including resurrection)
And with enough prayers, his family might be returnedβ¦
Starting an adventure with heartbreak and the desire to prove to oneself that I CAN is a powerful motivationβbut can quickly became hazardous for someone stubborn, who often finds it impossible to back downβ¦ even when it would be wise to do so.

Thanks, Manda! I had tons of fun layering into the format, with time running two directions as she scribbles back up the form, emphasizing certain words as her ink runs out π€βοΈ
I enjoyed your story too! So sweetβI had a rush of goosebumps when the woman regressed to childhood and hugged her father π
Yaay! Thanks Sierra π€π·οΈπ€
I super appreciate you being a calm language-tech-support agent when Iβd message all of a dither like βOMG does this (intentionally!) weird and unbalanced sentence still make sense Iβve read it 500 times and donβt know what words are anymoreβ π
