I could write a Slice of Life or an Eldritch Horror, you decide ^_^

Got a rejection to a story i'd sent out in November. Total Rejection stands at 3.
This only means I must polish stories over the weekend and send out to few more magazines before end of next week!

The Forbidden Tater
Got my first bag of potato chips in months. Cracked it open. The first chip out of the bag was... soggy?
The second chip was almost fungal.
Baffled, I explored the bag and discovered AN ENTIRE POTATO. Unsliced, brined, like a wad of seasoning juice. It had survived, and now was juicing the chips.

#FaveLineFriday This week, a large chunk of my writing focused on introducing the zizzun, a bee-like fantasy race, to my dragon WIP. And they do many cute things, but this might be the cutest.
Context: A sunflower is a flower-like monster. This zizzun is just casually nibbling on a monster head.

The bathroom door opened shortly after, followed by the gentle tones of Levi's voice, too soft and too blunted by exhaustion for Bash to make out the words. His mind filled the space: *hello overalls, i need those. yes thank you*

Despite studying magical Theiology*, Neven was more than enthusiastic to share some Felien cultural knowledge. “(The consent poem is) meant to be (for just our Season) but we’re so aware of it that the concepts apply to social interactions more broadly,” he replied.

Some angst with a simile that punched me in the gut.
Context: Avery's closeted & terrified of being outed. After his first time intimate with his boyfriend, he'd forgotten his dad's rent money at his place & was forced to admit where he left it. So, he's really going through it.

God what a great movie. Of all the cinematic portrayals of hell, this--along with much else in Lynch's filmography--this feels truest to the notion.
Remembering David Lynch who passed away one year ago today.

I think there’s an upside to parenting now that isn’t captured by looking at time spent.
I (Gen X) have a better relationship with my kid than my mom (Silent) did with me. My parents were great, but there was a lot of “go play outside, be home for dinner” that didn’t leave room for conversation.

Older generations spent a lot less time parenting. Millennial dads spend nearly as much time parenting as Boomer moms did. Millennial and Gen X moms way more.
