I finally finished my blog. It's brand new and I'm still figuring out how to balance publishing work vs. submitting but it's up and running.

@SteaknShake @JonHusted No more Steak n Shake for me! Thanks for making your position clear.

@sunshinehobi58 ... Where are you reading that?? And what people are you talking about? Jelly is Army!

Take a breath and reread her post before you start freaking out. Good grief.

[Ali Conn @Ali_Conn_Writes]

I... They're all there. 😂😂😂

That whisper in my ear in the dark of night is the vision of her that lives in my head.

Poetic.

It's a giggle or a shout but it has no sound only the feeling of something I can't touch.

Something I've never even heard.

God, she is my softest dream.
1/4

[Ali Conn @Ali_Conn_Writes]

A place I was a long time ago.

So long ago.

Methuselah met me there.

Metaphorically.

I just...words, words...

Ok, here it is.

She is brilliance wrapped in
honey skinned sweetness.

The universe thinks I'm insane.

4/4

[Ali Conn @Ali_Conn_Writes]

The fact is...

She is everything I will never really touch and this semi reality lulls me into forgetting myself.

Forgetting that I am landsliding toward an inevitable 6ft hole and she is just beginning to sight the hope that is the top of life's mountain.

Working on a 100 word story for the #microfictionchallenge100 with @nycmidnight

For someone who's as verbose as I am, this is TOUGH. 10 HOURS 45 MIN TO GO.

[Ali Conn @Ali_Conn_Writes]

@NinaMD1 @nycmidnight Thank you!

[Ali Conn @Ali_Conn_Writes]

@LaurieMMarshall @nycmidnight Right?? I usually take a first pass without paying much attention to the word count and it was 400+. 🫣

Let the pruning begin. 😂
