Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 07/09/2026WHIMSY! ✅ This month, I wrote a story inspired by one of my fondest memories. Which could mean anything, since I might be a plastic lawn flamingo from outer space. I've given NOTHING away by saying that. @whimsyfiction.bsky.social 291
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 30/08/2026I'm wondering if the weather joke itself is a hint. And perhaps that armored individual is falling out of the sky, a la "It's Raining Men." Maybe he's a king, and it's raining reigners? So the theme is... verb = noun? 😆static.klipy.comCharlie Day Conspiracy: Pepe SilviaAlt: Charlie Day Conspiracy: Pepe Silvia 210
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Today was an amazing day. The view from the top of the hill is mighty fine. Technicality, it's another few minutes before I get there, if we go by time of day (night, rather).static.klipy.com2026 Turning 40Alt: 2026 Turning 40 020

Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Hmmm, let's see... it must be late afternoon. The sun just broke free of the clouds. And I'm counting cars (but only the blue ones). 😁🎵 110
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 06/08/2026What a trip. 😎 She says from her computer desk. Because she lives on the internet now. But it's okay. The window is open. Already looking forward to September, @whimsyfiction.bsky.social ! 020
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 06/08/2026The weird part of my brain needs exactly one of you to break up with me. But I'm posting about it and finding one more person to follow instead, so it'll line up on 129. Which isn't as cool because it's not a power of 2, but oh well. 🙃 110
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 05/08/2026How about some Steppenwolf? Born to be Wild is a classic road trip song, but for our purposes, I'm thinking Magic Carpet Ride. 🎵😎 101
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Fake person: these letters in my signature look childish, but people like children, right? Hmm... Should I lean in by circling them or cross them out? I know! Split the difference! Tada! Nailed it. 010

Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Update: I finished. When I'm this engaged with a book, I tend to devour it like Bottomhead devours treats. But I read this one slow and savory. To sit with it and big feelings (What? I'm not crying half a dozen times. You are!). Thank you for bringing this into existence. I'm proud of you. 🩷🫂😭 110
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 20/07/2026🫂🩷 It comes through. That chapter sings. I'm still a little weepy about it and am sitting with the feelings before continuing. 000
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 20/07/2026@wiswell.bsky.social , holy shit, did I just READ a montage?! How does one even write a montage? Like that, apparently! That was so inspiring, it hurt. Or perhaps the other way around. What a great chapter. I'm loving the book so far. 🩷👏 320
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Loved "Someone You Can Build a Nest In." Loved "Wearing the Lion." Can't wait to read this one! All of my favorite authors (Tchaikovsky, Wisewell, North, Chambers, Wells) excel at making readers feel empathy for something "other." For Wisewell, it's monsters. I am so ready to meet this dragon. 🩷🐉 120
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Once upon a time, when I owned 5 CDs and 12 cassettes, I had Load in both forms. Black too. I'm sure I could still sing all the words for every song, but "Until it Sleeps" was my favorite. 010
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 08/07/2026The idea: day 1, nigh immediate. The actual writing: last minute. As one does. This was fun! Let's do it again next month. 😁 @whimsyfiction.bsky.social 040

Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 24/06/2026It's almost time to get whimsical, and I can't wait! Was this contest made especially for me? Yes! ... ... I mean, technically no. But still yes. Very yes. Don't you dare doubt me on that. My pet clown will fight you. 😉🩷🤡 120
Avery Other @averyother.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I'd watch the hell out of muppet versions of most movies. My contribution: The Fifth Element. It'd be different hero vibes with Kermit as Korben Dallas (Kerben? 🤔), but Miss Piggy would be a natural Leeloo. Gonzo as the diva. Ruby Rhod as the unchanged non-muppet, obviously. 😆 010
