Still very much enjoying that Chrome extension that replaces a certain someone with cat pics.

I had lots of fun with @natflashfictionday.bsky.social's prompt #4 (Off Season). The optional bonus points for making people laugh or smile are very much up my street.
Going to try for at least one more before the deadline of 23.59 today.

Responding to @natflashfictionday.bsky.social's "Two Seasons" prompt was loads of fun - I now have a new 300-word story written! Planning to work on more prompts over this weekend, before the deadline tomorrow.
Hope everyone else is having a fun day.
