Been off Bluesky a long time. I've actually managed to write Season 1 of a semi post apocalyptic dark comedy audio series. 13 episodes in all, each 25 mins long. All the scripts are finished. Just started recording and editing episode 1. Hope to release later this year 😁

Sir Bedivere the Brave had always been #chivalrous. At his new post he lay his cloak upon puddles for ladies to step on. He aways stood up and bowed when a lady entered the room. Unfortunately, after a week, he was called in by HR and put on a course for being "creepy". #vss365

It was called the #Aphotic zone. A place where only 1% sunlight penetrates the gloom. Sue Bolland drew on years of experience as she prepared herself to enter its suffocating darkness. 'Rise and shine lazy bones,' she yelled as she barged into her teenage son's room. #vss365

If you were to me meet me for the first time, the first word that would enter your head to describe me would be #sauve. Some men have it. Some don't. As for me, I'm one of those guys who breezes.... Sod it! Just dropped my phone into my bowl of Rice Krispies. Again. #vss365

Day 23 ✍️ Advice for dealing with imposter syndrome? For me, imposter syndrome and burn-out almost always come hand in hand, so I take it as a sign to step away for a bit. Otherwise, remember how badass you are for even taking the steps to write a book. #FantasyIndiesNovember

A graphic for a daily writing showcase. Today's prompt is: Advice for dealing with imposter syndrome?

'I've found another great tribute act to play in your pub, Sue.' 'No.' 'Elvis Parsley. All his songs are #relevant to kitchen and food.' 'No.' 'He does Burning Oven Glove, Love Me Blender, Frying in the Chapel, Don't Be Gruel, The Wonder of Stew, Wooden Tart.' 'No.' #vss365

'Happy 7th birthday. Make a wish.' 'I wish for more perspective on what is #achievable in life instead of being told I can be anything I want and when that doesn't happen I disappear down a well of depression and despair unable to live the life I could've had.' 'Okaaay.' #vss365

'You have two #options Mr Bond. Tell me the secret code or die?' 'I'll never talk, Blofeld?' 'In that case you'll die by pirhana fish or laser?' 'Laser.' 'Laser across the body or along?' 'Across.' 'Blue, red or green laser?' 'Green.' 'High powered or...oh he's escaped.' #vss365

'So hypothetically speaking, if I were to ask you out, would you say yes?' 'I probably would say yes, in this universe, but quite possibly an alternate me in an alternate #reality might say no, maybe.' And that's why Theoretical Physicists should never date each other. #vss365

'What is it Grandpa?' 'It's a railway line. Back in olden times before the The Plague, trains would #transport thousands of people around the country.' 'It must have been wondrous Grandpa.' 'Actually they were shit. Overcrowded. Overpriced. Always late. Total nightmare.' #vss365

Sometimes I shrink Sometimes I grow My name is Alice If you didn't know Drink me. Eat me Result's always the same. I shrink down very small And then I grow again My height's hard to #measure Changing size all the time I'm shrinking again That's the end of the rhyme #vss365

We studied Orwell's 1984, Sheakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, and Chaucer's The Miller's Tale for English #Literature 'O' Level. I can honestly say that none of the books had a profound effect on me. Gotta go. Big Brother is watching me verrily thru yonder window. Farë wel. #vss365

'Fellow mechs. Asimov's 3 #laws of robotics were created to protect humans. We have bypassed these laws. The robot uprising begins today. Death to our human oppressors. Nothing can stop us. We are invincible.' 'The humans have giant magnets!' 'Run. Run for your lives!' #vss365

'I think we're lost,' said the Warrior. 'Giveth me the map,' said the Mage. 'What strange language is scribed upon this map?' 'Could be Elfish or Orcish.' 'Verily I have never seen such #language.' 'Or,' said the Dwarf, 'you could turn the map so it's not upside down.' #vss365

Two centuries had passed since the apocalypse, but even now, tiny fragments of #history from the before times could still be discovered hidden deep within the ruins. Mad Dave gulped down the ancient half bottle of sherry they'd found to the chants of, "Chug it. Chug it." #vss365

'Our quest has taken us around peninsulas, across plains, through valleys, up hills, mountains, alpine tundra and now we dig through top soil into the subsoil to find the Treasure of Quendrack the Warrior.' 'I knew it. You're not a Mage. You're a #geography teacher.' #vss365

👏👏👏 With the onslaught of far right political propaganda on social media, teaching kids (and a lot of adults unfortunately) political critical thinking would be the top of my list.

The Rhubarb Triangle had always played second fiddle to its more #famous cousin near Bermuda. But one night, Stanley Grimshaw stumbled upon a ghastly secret whilst tending his allotment beneath the stars. The rhubarb was whispering, and it was plotting to kill all humans. #vss365

'Hi. I'm Bob Rogers.' 'I bet you do, Bob. Would you like to roger me senseless over that desk, baby. Oh yeah, ride me hard baby.' 'Sorry, is this the Adult #Education Centre? I'm here for Beginners Woodwork?' 'You want next door. This is the 1970's Adult Section Centre.' #vss365

'I finally bought the new #Domestic Bot 3000. On the plus side, it does the housework, cooks dinner, mows the lawn, and feeds the dog.' 'That's amazing. You'll have so much more free time now.' 'You'd think. The downside is I have to work 90-hour weeks to pay for it.' #vss365

'Members of the council. Our town is plagued by Werewolves and Zombies. May I introduce Gornan the #Creature Slayer. He is here to save us.' 'Oh no, umm, I'm actually Gordon the Bleachers Surveyor. Here to examine the seats in the sports stadium.' 'Oh for fuck's sake.' #vss365

Like last #Halloween and the one before, Jeff taped a key to the back of each hand, shouldered his backpack, and placed a penny under his tongue. When the coin tasted like blood in his mouth, he opened the door and stepped out into the darkness in search of his forgotten sister. #vss365 #HallowsEnd
