My favorites are
the bikers the
old farts the
lawnchair cheerers the
kids off school the
overalls farmers the
housewives and the
trans-lives, the
ones who look like they
shouldn't be here
at all.
My favorites are the
ones who showed up.

I imagine the statue as being a huge microscope going *HMM* at the plants.

I'm normal.

Haiku Tea Review🍵(7-27): English Breakfast w/ milk & honey

It's not that special
To anyone else but me;
Transmogrified, mine.

___________

I mean, it's just black tea with some extra pizzazz. But I like it. Very unintrusive.

Haiku Tea Review🍵(7-17): Moroccan Mint

Sitting. Thinking. Have
I been here before? Winter
and the bathroom sink...

___________

But in all seriousness, this is *very* spearmint forward but not intolerably so. It sits happily on the tongue.

Yo is there a #tea hastag on Bluesky? Like, #teasky? Is that a thing? A Tea Community? Teammunity?

I love tea.

Look at this tea.

Delicious.

Lovely.

(In a Gordon Ramsay Voice) Beautiful.

My hope is to post enough unexpected pictures of nature and rad, green thingamawhatsits that people will screenshot them and say, "Oh that's cool," and then move on, their day made a little better, if only unconsciously.

Behold.

I love random golf balls in the middle of nowhere.

Like, what are your stories, ye wayward orbs? There's not even a golf course within 5 miles of here.

Go the fuck home.

I read an article recently lamenting how "un-fun" it is to be on #bluesky.

I'll admit, I came here to connect with #writers and #artists. Now I come here to be angry and bitter at the world.

I'd like that to change.

Now look at these cool flowers and fowls and sky-friends i saw recently. 🌼🦆☁️

I enjoy this tree. It looks like it'll be crafted into a druid's staff someday.

Cursed?💀

I guess we'll find out in the sequel~

But, probably Helia will surpress it, go on as normal.

Marxen will seek a cure. Any cure. No matter how strange or painful. He has to survive.

Samuel Ennet is Helia's (MC) mentor and closest friend.

Unfortunately, Samuel took Helia under his wing partially to study her. Her found her relentlessness fascinating and wanted to encourage it.

Samuel's a fiend for novelty.

Tonal Dousing requires the right tool: a fusion of wizard staff and tuning fork. The Douser's body also resonates like a living conduit of sound.

The process is often painful and damages hearing. That's partly why Dousers are so rare... ☠️

In Ardenheim, the main magic is Tonal Dousing: sound magic.

Common spells include:

-Telepathic communication using tones like Morse Code.
-Psychic attacks using high frequency noises
-Silencing or quieting sound

Sup 👋

I'm Michael. This is my book: All Else After. It's dark fantasy with a focus on character psychology with some fleshy horror goodness.

Will be posting more about it on: michaelwettengel.substack.com/p/well-this-...

I'm still alive!

Despite life's best efforts, I yet live!

Look at these flowers! 🌹And these ducks! 🦆 Wow! Zow, even!

I love the Bridge section in my local paper. Their headlines read like horoscopes:

(Only) sweet moment is Diana touching the scar she inadvertently gave Estenn.

My characters are had with intimacy. 🤔

Never judge your first or second or thirtieth drafts as final drafts. Nothing's done till it's done.

The Ministry runs Ardenheim, headed by the Council of Firsts, something like a collection of high cardinals.

The Lower, Medium, and High Councils all have progressively fewer members and are progressively more secretive.
