Supernatural beings have been more-or-less integrated into everyday life. A lot less, in some cases. With few job options available, a skeleton and her uncle sign up for a six week correspondence course in monster rehabilitation. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Poems I Shouldn’t Write: Poems

Excerpt:

“My heart doesn't skip/When I see you/I think that’s a good thing/I feel a little less like a cactus/More like a hedgehog”

“Humans. I’d seen them before: one or two here and there over the years, a small pack once. It was always the same: crowds silently parting to make way for a lone hunter, dock workers going out of their way to avoid a human ship’s berth. But this one wanted to talk to me.” #BluePit #Q #SF #LGBT #A

Here's my plan: everything cool I see, it's getting a repost, or a like, or both. Everyone who reposts me, I repost 'em back. Every follow is a follow back. You never know who might see your post and the good which might accrue. Have at it!
Welcome to the final day of #BluePitHype!

DAY FIVE: Build Your List

On BlueSky YOU are the algorithm so the best way to help each other is to REPOST! Create a List and swap support!

Q3: it isn't that Ricky loves booze, but rather he loves that it helps him forget. He loves women too, in one specific way. But the thing he lives for is working with children and seeing the innocence that shines out from their hearts

Q2: What Ricky fears more than anything is that he isn't the good guy people think he is. He knows how dangerous his power is, how easily it can hurt others, and he's terrified that one day he'll lose control and become the bad guy he suspects he secretly is

Q1: Ricky has...issues. Despite having power over heat, he has issues controlling himself, and he knows it. He struggles against himself and his self-destructive tendencies. He feels ashamed more often than proud.

#BluePitHype Day 2:

This is Red Line, one of the two protagonists of my first novel. Nobody knows who is under the armour - a secret identity is a valuable thing. Red Line only cares about obligation and duty, and if that means criminals die as a result, so be it.

The Goonies
All the lads in my class loved this film when we were ten. The Goonies was the first and last word in pre-teen adventure comedy nonsense...in 1985. Forty years on...how does it compare?
