I have not felt up to novel writing, so I'm accepting some Stucky prompts for fun.
If you want a structure, I always like location + word.

The number of people pledged this year has my brain boggling. Y'all got a lot of friends.
Friends, writers, today is the LAST DAY to pledge for 2025! We will not be accepting new pledges after about 8:30AM EST tomorrow!
Today is also the last day to CHANGE your pledge and you will be locked in for the rest of the year.
Get pledging, ya'll!

We're gonna need 8 people to go ahead and pledge so we can meet our first pledging goal of 215 writers so @theemdash will calm down. (She won't really, but it takes the edge off.)
Get Your Words Out is open to ALL types of #writers! We have people writing literary fiction, fanfic, horror, SFF, YA, poetry, nonfiction. If it's writing, it counts! If you need a goal to hit and a community to support you, come pledge for 2025! getyourwordsout.dreamwidth.org/835269.html
