Please don't share tweets with me. I'm not on that app for a reason. Tyvm.

On June 26, 1997 Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was first published. It is a book that also changed me forever. I would never have imagined I would say this, but it gave me wings to read, write and believe I can do it. I was young then, I'm just starting now. Took a while, eh? #writing

I finished my puppy microstory with @anagha.bsky.social 's lovely prompts. Guess I'll be on a new journey next week. Will try to keep each story within 7 daily prompts this time, so I might skip the rest of this week or just do a random short per day. Undecided. #writingsky #authorsky #flashfiction

1, 2, 3, 4 amphibian puppies saw light that day. The children of Triton's knight and a surface bitch with no heritage. The very existence of these tiny souls was an #enigma, but what mattered to her was seeing his eyes filled with love. No longer able to breathe underwater, she closed her eyes.

Afraid as she was, she remembered her guru's words: you only control yourself; everything else has its own flow. And so, she swam, escorted by the guards into Triton's world. Inside, she understood freedom: the ability to exist without pressure. Here, she could deliver the puppies. #vss365 #prompt

Underwater, the gates look ephemeral - iridescent wrought shapes depicting Triton's rise of power. She wanted to cry out of happiness, but instead pushed harder. Parallel to her, the guards marched to a different rhythm. Was she... non-grata? #vss365 #prompt #parallel

Remember how Defence against the Dark Arts teaching position was cursed so no one stuck longer than a term? Papal reigns: John Paul II 1978-2005 (26yrs) Benedict XVI 2005-2013 (8yrs) Francis 2013-2025 (12 yrs)

I can speak multiple languages. I can write. I can edit. I have critical thinking. These are basics, but in the age of mindless AI prompting, they become what separates people who develop their brains v those who mimic existing. #aiart #confrontation #reality #bluepill #redpill #thematrix #biteme

As she swam deeper, the water pressure pushed her in different directions; she continued on her downwards adventure. Hoping to escape the perilous vortex, she forced all her leg muscles and advanced against the odds. A lonely earthling clashing against the waterdepths. #vss365 #prompt #vortex

Brown hair splashed against the water surface, and her lungs fought through the pressure. With life from above within, she dug, like an underwater mole. In Triton's realm he exists; and she was decided that her water puppies will live, regardless if she could survive. #vss365 ‪ #prompt #realm

I wrote a very strong character monologue. It's quotes, and im their style. It's really raw and honest. Problem is, I hate how non-literary it is. 😫 What do I dooooo #writingsky #writersky #author #wipwednesday #reading #books #dilemma

Think about the people around you. Think about the gifts they give you. Think about the messages they send you. Think about the drinks you share, the food they cook for you, the flowers. One day these will be memories. You won't be able to make new ones. Thank them while you can. It costs nothing.

I am watching the Northern Ireland riot coverage. Why is it always "taxpayers money"? These money were given and were never used as per the needs of the population, were they? Why gaslight the community with "taxpayers money" that were never theirs to spend? #riots #northernireland #california

I thought curating my algorithm for writing and authors, publishing and books will help me write more and feel better about myself... Reality is, I feel like everyone's publishing while I am stuck in self-doubt. #writingsky #authorsky #selfdoubt #impostorsyndrome

Repeat after me: If they only contact me when they need a favour, they are NOT MY FRIENDS. Especially when otherwise the service would cost them quite a lot if they hire me for the job. #honest #writing #editing #experts #professionalism #tiredofyourbullshit

Inboxes full of deleted accounts. All the same people in the discover tab. All the same people reacting and commenting alongside me on different threads. Is BlueSky really as active as the stats claim? My experience is much different. What about yours? #bluesky #socialmedia #dailyponder

Bluemoose Books is an AI FREE Publisher. AI cannot create the flawed human experience that is required to write brilliant books. It is cut & paste hallucination. It is Tech bros microdosed capitalism. It is not publishing. It is scraping. @thebookseller.com @theguardian.com

I started writing a very off-my-path collection of short stories. Definitely to go under a pseudonym related to one of my hobbies. It's funny how easy it is to write in a different genre when you walk into your alter self's shoes. #discoveries #yetanotherproject

I haven't written anything in the past 2 months. I was prepping for and been on a trip to Japan. It was a break from stress, feeling guilty to write while not working and to work while not writing and so many other stupid anxious thoughts. #japan #日本 #travelling #writing #anxiety #imback
