Advice Needed: A Yam's Tale
Hello there, everyone! I am once again taking another break from my regularly scheduled fiction to publish something in the new critique community. It was created by Vocal at a perfect time for me as, sat within my memory stick, a small story opening has existed. The problem with it is... I have no idea where to go with it!

A Knight at the Inn (2/3)
A/N: This three-part story is inspired by an old Vocal prompt where writers were asked to select 3 words from a word search to include within a piece. I decided to challenge myself further with 10 random words from an online generator and include them within a fictional story. There are as follows: Exile Stomach Panel Owner Institution Rider Remark Draw Summit Ambition When they appear - they are highlighted in bold. Enjoy!

The Very First SporeTop Story - July 2023
Deep within an ancient forest sat a large pond surrounded by life. The water was kept crystal clear by fizzing oxygen plants, that bubbled clarity through the water. Rounded stones sat at the bottom giving frogs a perfect hiding place to kick from and newts swished with the fish happily away from the passing webbed feet of the ducks coasting by.

Open
Does a leaf love sun? Open wide to hold its gift, Why do we not bask? A/N: I felt inspired to write a haiku as I haven't written one is absolutely ages! I wanted to draw a comparison between the feeling of love - warm, bright, safe - and the sunlight. I hope you enjoyed it! I recently updated my socials: Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, and Twitch!!

King Kaiden
A/N: This story was written for the 'Pitch your Pilot' challenge on Vocal - Enjoy! Synopsis Kay is an aspiring drag performer, climbing the ranks of the community using a unique mix of stand-up comedy and killer singing performances. The only issue is – she is a drag King, not a drag queen. Watch as Kay traverses the drag community using her manly persona; King Kayden! Come along for the ride in this TV comedy with all of its beauty, sadness, drama, and (of course) glitter!

Fabulist
A/N: This was written for the 'Past Life' challenge on Vocal, enjoy! Ancient Greece - I mean those Athenian scholars rather than their Spartan neighbors. That is where I think I could be born. From a practical perspective, it is likely that around 600 BCE is the earliest you could get away with while still living a bearable life, depending on your sex, of course. Some understanding of medicine, advanced education, and clean architecture could give those privileged a very enjoyable life indeed.

Fable 9: Wolf and the WeaselTop Story - July 2023
There was once a wolf, who liked to stray from her pack. She wanted to learn about other animals. The wolves in her family pack shook their heads at her behaviour, blaming her young age for her curiosity. Though, soon enough, they trusted her to return of her own volition from her travels.
