@writershq.bsky.social You called it savings an eye looking through the gaping hole on the little piggy's back racking up every little thing we never said. Look there they are, our mouths our brains our mean words, spent as the cuddles & the promises as thin as the night #MicroFlashMonday

(Cue Jeopardy music) Answer: What is a writer. Thanks to that pesky inner voice I've embodied all 6 depictions at some point. Often on the same day. Happy Friday, y'all❤️
6 photos. 1st: a man at his desk laptop open, thinking & caption says "what my friends think I do". 2nd: A hobo lounging on some steps & caption says "what my mom thinks I do". 3rd: A woman and a man dressed fancy, drinks and exaggerated smoke in hand society lady like, & caption says "what society thinks I do". 4th: A photo of JK Rowling holding an Harry Potter book & caption says "What editors expect me to  do". 5th: A man sitting, thinking, with an open book and a quill in his hand & caption says "what I think I do". 6th: A frazzled man lost in thought playing with a slinky at his desk & caption says "What I really do"
