Until Bluesky opens a holding pen for future posts (drafts), I have to keep posting things like this to remind myself what's coming, rather than waste time searching relevant accounts for the announcements. So, for tomorrow: The 28 June 2025 #ScifaikuSaturday #prompt is #PROOF ✍️ 👽 🛸

To all the #ScifaikuSaturday and #Fantaiku poets on Bluesky, I have finally completed my full-time move to Florida. My New York home just sold on Tuesday! Now, it’s 🌞 🌴 🌀 😳 but no more 🥶 It also means I can devote more time to the writing prompts. Look for some new stuff in days to come. 👍
