If you like my micro fiction stories then you will love my new book "Microverses: A collection of micro fiction". With nearly two hundred of my best stories in less than 280 characters. See my website for links to the ebook and paperback: www.almacdonald.ca #indieauthor #writersofbluesky #amwriting

Just a reminder that the @canconsffh.bsky.social vendors room is open to the public this weekend, so you don't need tickets to pick up some sweet fantasy, science fiction, and horror merch from Canadian authors and artists!

#Cops, #androids, and #space #pirates, oh my! If you are a #sci-fi nerd who appreciates punchy prose, interesting (and likable) characters, and well integrated science-based world building, Orbiting Fortunes by @almacdonald.ca is for you. I highly recommend checking it out.

For those looking for a great new #fantasy read, check out NEMESIS SPAWNED & WORLDS SUNDERED. A dark psychological #fantasy epic 📚, it follows a demigod across multiple worlds in incarnations as an antihero, hero, and villain . . .

Hope everyone has a chance to touch grass on #caturday

A lot can go wrong when creating a new world. To get that #slice of heaven where you can wriggle your toes in some grass, you #chance having molten magma erupt and scorch it all. The humans like that about Earth. They are destruction wrapped in niceness, too, after all. #vssdaily #vss365 #vsspic

Glittering dew drops dangle on the #laces of a spider web. That's how you have to think of space. The #constellations you see hang from the strands our interstellar ships travel along. The spider is the one stealing time so we can never go back, even if our loss was unfair. #vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic

Hope everyone is having a relaxing #caturday

"Do you have an outlet?" Its eyes were sunken into shadowed skull pits, its hands #malformed claws clutching the phone, scrolling an infinite highway. "You can plug in there," I said. I suppose I'd misunderstood, as it just continued to swipe, searching for its #outlet. #vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic

🚨Dark Politics is now out at OUP in paperback, hardcover, ebook Feeling that politics is getting dark? We have a book for ya We investigate dark personality traits in politicians worldwide, and why they matter - for voters, elections, and democracy mini🧵(& voucher!)

Our shorings and footings for the new dam were #pummeled and swept away by the river yet again. We had to give up. The math was good, I just shuddered to think what force we had overlooked. I swear the leaves cheered, the water chuckled, and the #moss breathed with relief. #vssdaily #vss365 #vsspic

Wow I am absolutely tickled by this review, thank you! #amwriting

Look deep into his beautiful eyes - he is asking for chicken #caturday

The #spiders were amazing #engineers, building more than we realized. I was amazed to see that the town signpost was made of tightly woven webs. Then I noticed the clouds, the cars, the trees - all webs. Too late, I found out they could weave handcuffs and gags as well. #vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic

“Wellness” by Larissa Hikel is today’s 75-word #story on Paragraph Planet www.paragraphplanet.com #writing #flashfiction #writingcommunity

It was a complex #charm, woven by three elders, the final cast ripping the skies apart with #thunder. Forevermore, the child of the blood moon could sense the demons lurking about the village and warn them. It was too late that they realized why the child stayed away from the King. #vss365 #vssdaily

She was like the #horizon, beautiful and ever out of reach. Like the more distant vantage of the silver moon that erased the eclipse of perspective, I wished I could turn her to me. Her father #scowled as I gifted her a mirror. But the glass revealed her, as she looked only to it. #vss365 #vssdaily

The sudden crash of a tree falling was a shock. Even crazier was seeing a naked woman half emerge from the #elm stump. "Who are you?" The she-tree demanded. "Literally nobody!" I stammered. "At long last! Please, to finally settle the debate: did I make a sound when I fell?" #Vss365 #vsspic

The cruise ship Spiritual Journey waited at the pier, white paint bright against the fiery sunset. Our legs never tired through the climb up the gangway to the infinite, where we freed our selves of corporeal pain and earthly need. Only then did I see why it was a one way ticket. #vss365 #vssdaily

It was supposed to be a game. But I didn't feel the VR headset anymore. The #onyx polish of the gun at my hip and the #rough stubble on my face felt very real. Wait, did the constellation of pins on the map on the wall point to a real killer? Was I in someone else's game? #vssdaily #vss365 #vsspic

Your soul light shines through the soul #prism and displays a spectrum of character. They #label each piece of you. Orange is a lovely sense of humour, purple is pragmatism, yellow optimism. The nurse looked at me, eyes wide. I had no colours, just deep, consuming vanta black. #vss365 #vssdaily

It was just a doll. A few trillion molecules of #matter - same ones as in any other thing on this planet. But this toy cracked my heart in two with the sternum saw and chest retractor of #nostalgia. I swear it winked at me. And at the corner of its little plastic mouth, a smile. #vssdaily #vss365

Every telescope can see us, two stars in #space caught in our centripetal whirl. They see the #movement of dance, around and around the needle of time and rhythm. But perspective warps our perception. I see you, closer than any other heavenly body, yet never, ever nearer. #vss365 #vssdaily

Every nation raced to where the alien capsule fell from #space, cutting a deep scar through the desert. All #movement paused until bullion spilled from it, the sparkle of gems reflecting in the flashes of gunfire. Far away, the aliens retreated from the feeding frenzy. #vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic

We'll never be #broke again. The treasure is hidden in a slipstream reality. Our guide lays down. He doesn't use a map. He says he sees the path in the #liminal edge of sleep. But every time he wakes, he screams. Maybe there's a reason we forget dreams of the other realms. #vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic
