Good morning, can you sink off your skin?

No one: "Have you considered the shortage of whump featuring Dave, the haunted, compromised, plausibly queer-coded bookkeeper played by Wendell Corey in I Walk Alone (1947) who is, let's face it, already a pretty stressed character?"

My brain: "A Good Accountant, All Right."

I blame the general aura of noir prompts scattered throughout [community profile] threesentenceficathon by [personal profile] theseatheseatheopensea. For actual three-sentence fics, "Fall from the Sky" and "Floriography" have been transferred to AO3. The former appears to be the first fic in the archive for Repeat Performance (1947).

I have been given a wall calendar featuring the art of Wayne Thiebaud. I hope he would understand that describing him as the Edward Hopper of random American objects is intended as a delighted compliment.

Oh, well done on more words! And, I mean, sometimes someone Has To Write The Thing, and sometimes unfairly, you Have To Do It Yourself (goddammit world), even if Nobody Asked For It [TM], although usually, sooner or later, someone will be very glad to find it! Deeply so, I should think, in case of your writing. <3

And that is cool art for a calendar. I suppose the year ought to have something good in it...


by the way, if you wanted to remove your "William Williams" tag in favour of a now-canonical "William Williams (Repeat Performance)" you will find in the drop down menu that would be a thing you could do. I'm not here & I'm not asking you to because that would be very wrong of me, I'm just noting an Interesting Fact in passing, you understand.

I hope so, especially since I'm not sure I even asked for it so much as it decidedly showed up.

Writing, what even is it?

That is indeed an interesting fact which I have duly noted.
