This is me.

Undercover writer, living the dream.

There will be no explanation, only reputation.
Polaroid of author persephone Posey, photo in pink tint. Their face is only from the bottom of their eyes down to their shoulders. They are wearing the prettiest people collar ever. The Polaroid reads "persephone Posey" and underneath it reads "Author Snapshot". At the top, my link: linktr.ee/the.story.of.omg At the top it reads "I am" above four Polaroid frames. They read: "24/7" with a collar with a heart-shaped tag. "They/them" with a lightning bolt. "Disaster Bi" with an anatomical heart. "English/Lit" with a stack of books under a cup with a heart on it. I am... Four Polaroids again. "Writer/Artist" with a fountain pen and paintbrush crossed. "Atheist witch" with a hand dropping celestial figures. "Polyamorous" with three hearts. "Neurodivergent" with an infinity symbol. I write fiction about... "Mental health" with a head with scribbles for a brain. "LGBTQ+" with a Progress Pride rainbow heart. "Love, in all forms" with a smiling person with flowers growing from their head. "Magic and fantasy" with a hand producing sparkles.

I've decided that, when anyone tries to yuck my yum, I'll now be calling them "dull and sublunary".

I will not be taking questions at this time, but do be aware.

It's odd that Republicans can do the mental gymnastics to link Tylenol to autism, but not link gun deaths to guns.

Heeeey, it's the #WIPSnips word for the day, INK. I had to wade through ink-containing words (think, drink, etc.) to get to this one, but here you go! Hawk loans Valentine something to do.
#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
Valentine turned her attention back to the couch to see what Hawk had brought to keep her busy. It was a book. Not a tablet or a phone – of course not, she was kidnapped – but a real, actual book, made of real, actual synth-paper and ink.

I had something like 30 instances of the #WIPSnips word of the day, "leave". I'm still trying to decide how this one ends. Happily, I hope.

#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
“Well, what were we supposed to do, leave her there to die? Do you really think Hawk would have protected her?” Owl held up one hand and Eagle stopped, albeit with a glare and her arms crossed. “What’s your name, sweetheart?” Owl asked. “I –” Valentine stuttered. “She told me to run.” "Who did?" Starling asked, concerned.

I'm proud I can love anyone. I'm proud to have a community of people like me. I'm proud because we get 'phobia from both hets and Queers, but we Bisexual comrades persist.

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day to my fellow Bisexuals! We matter. We are loved.

The #WIPSnips word for the day is "obvious" and I had a few of those. Here's a fun one, though. In which we find out that Valentine's father is a douchebag.
#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
“Go on,” Hawk told her. “You go first. I feel like that’s pretty obvious.” “Sorry,” Valentine said, “it’s just that I’ve never been kidnapped before. Though my father always told me that, if I ever did get kidnapped, they would send me back in a day, no ransom necessary.” Hawk just stared at her for a moment, blinking. “That’s, uh, a pretty fucked up thing for your old man to say,” Hawk informed Valentine. “Especially to his own kid.”

YARD is the #WIPSnips word for the day, and we're joining up on a good cause today.
#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
“I mean that, if I answer any of your questions, you’re one of us, from that day on. You can never go home, never live your own life, never date, or get married, or have cute little babies to play in your picket-fence yard. It means you’re with us until this thing is done. And, no matter what it is, you gotta be prepared to do it, to further our cause.”

#WIPSnips word of the day is "difference", and Hawk is making 🌟 choices 🌟 over here.
#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
“What did you do?” Valentine asked, a little apprehensive. “He’s not –” “He’ll live. Just with a headache. I only punched him in his stupid face once. And tased him.” Valentine stared at Hawk, blinking hard. Hawk shrugged. “He’ll be fine, unfortunately. Douchebag doesn’t understand the difference between the go-ahead and an enthusiastic refusal.”

The #WIPSnips word of the day is PRACTICE. This one, from "Decorum, Volume I", is based on a true story. (Seriously, this is gross.)

#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
"Joss didn’t think that Lady would lie to her, certainly not about something as trivial as hair fashions, she just found the practice dubious. Apparently, women were supposed to save the hair that came out in their brushes in a special case, then bundle it to use for later, when a hairstyle needed added volume. They got the ‘necessary’ volume using dead hair."

The #WIPSnips word for the day -- other -- was too prevalent throughout the document. So, here, have the first instance from that nameless scifi novel.
#Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIP
"It was a Wednesday, and on Wednesdays Valentine usually took a long lunch so she could eat with Devin in the first-floor restaurant in The Knightley Group’s building. Some weeks, it was the only time the two of them had a meal together at all, between his work at Knightley and hers at the flower shop, and the fact that their apartments were almost completely across town from each other."
