German Butter - what is your most common sentence cadence (like having two commas/pauses, or using a semi-colon)? Is this conscious/preferred or just happens?

Chocolate Crinkle:

For Kashi the vice/flaw would definitely be her (earned) rage and practically shutting down so much of herself at any given point. And again, she's certainly earned it. Lost her pack, her mate, and her cubs in one night and it's left her with very little at the surface but rage. I don't know that I can say it's directly connected to the plot, as most of the plot has to do with keeping Layla safe, getting her out of danger, etc, but it definitely acts as seasoning for the plot.

German Butter:

Writerblr, I’m doing a little experiment

I’ve been in full editor/β-reader brain lately, and honestly? I love seeing the early chaos of someone’s story the raw character mess, the unhinged dialogue, the “I swear this will make sense later” plot threads.

So for fun, I’m offering something:

I’m beta-reading the first two chapters of people’s WIPs for free. No pressure, I just really enjoy getting a peek into new worlds and giving helpful, gentle feedback.

If you’re working on a book right now and want: - a fresh pair of eyes - thoughts on pacing, clarity, or character voice -someone who actually enjoys early-draft chaos

…drop a little about your WIP in the notes or reblog with your genre! If it vibes, I’ll hop into your DMs.

How It Works:

Use the bingo card below as a writing/art prompt board.

For each square you fill, create:

A written piece (at least 100 words, any genre, any form), OR

An art piece; like a moodboard, sketch, photo, or collage

Complete a full row, column, or diagonal or try to blackout the board.

Flight 27 to the Rest of Your Life, currently delayed. You are welcome to wait at the gate. No estimated departure time. You may be called, or you may be forgotten. Snacks available. Answers are not.

Who’s still waiting here? What were they expecting from this flight? What keeps them from leaving the terminal?

I'm hopping onto an open tag on @winterandwords' post (here!) because it looked fun! All are pulled from Sunset Vol 1 & 2

📝 Find a line in your story that fits each of the parameters given by the person who tagged you, then give new lines for the people you tag

A line spoken quietly

"You tell Alex not to move a muscle and to take the slowest breaths he can. Tell him…tell him to plug his ears."

A line with a colour mentioned

Ahead of them, rising like mountains, were the sand dunes. Bone-white against the horizon but for narrow green caps, they looked as if the land was trying to mirror the rolling clouds. 

 A line beginning with a conjunction (so, and, but etc)

"So I need you to just eat that you fucked up."

A line spoken by your MC

(Alex) “Sure, and they really buried the lead on that whole cannibalism bit."

I'll no pressure tag @thatndginger @ceph-the-ghost-writer @space-writes and open tag!

Welcome to Writeblr Summerfest 2025, your month-long terminal of writing, games, and community vibes! Whether you're a frequent flyer or joining us for the first time, you're assured to have a great time!

This year’s theme is airport terminal. That means we'll be talking about missed connections, delayed departures, magical vending machines, romance over layovers, and weird announcements you definitely weren’t supposed to hear.

Here’s a quick rundown of the brand-new games you’ll get to play this month, all low-pressure, reblog-friendly, and designed to spark your creativity in hundreds of directions.

Boarding Call Bingo: Choose a bingo card and fill in the squares with microfiction or art! We’ve got four themed cards to choose from. Can you fill them all in?

Lost Luggage Challenge: Claim a mysterious suitcase with strange contents. You tell us who packed it, where it’s going, and what story it belongs to.

Destination Dash: A collaborative storytelling game where each writer adds a sentence or paragraph, but every addition must take place in a different location.

Overheard at the Terminal: We drop a strange overheard line, then you write the story it comes from.

Flight Connections: You’re given a fictional flight. Introduce a character who’s boarding, or missing, that flight.

The Gate Mix-Up Game: Each gate has a genre or mood, paired with something that's a complete opposite. Your job is to write something that fills both halves of the prompt.

Layover Prompts: Short prompts about what happens between flights. You can respond with fiction, poetry, or moodboards.

Plus, the normal Summerfest fare!

Use #WriteblrSummerfest2025 and the specific game tag (like #BoardingCallBingo or #LostLuggageChallenge) so we can find and reblog your work!
