Use #SundaySnips and don't forget to include alt text. Synonyms, vibes, and variations on the word are welcome! Hosted by woodenvelt.bsky.social and Hook and Quill Press.

Welcome to #SundaySnips! A once-a-week prompt game for writers hosted by myself and @hookandquillpress.com

New sprouts pushing up from the soil is the closest thing to magic I know. Share a snip featuring sprouts.

I know it's not Sunday anymore but I'm still gonna do this #SundaySnips, since I missed it 😅

Just a sweet little MirKena scene from #Atlantis Book 2. Considering Kena is a gardener, you'd really think I would use this word more!

From Star Struck

Once his buddy Bob filed their patent for their coin-operated chickens, things started rolling like a snowball. In Georgia. A short-term burst of excitement, slushy around the edges. Soaking into the soil just as you got your hopes up.

I did have soil! My story is set in a rustic village with lots of farms. Here's a scene where Mitali learns to weed. Not sure if it's completely accurate, I will definitely research farming more in draft two haha!

By some weird coincidence, this snippet follows directly on from the one I used for this tag last week, and I'm actually working on this WIP today.
Shawn's feelings for his best friend are changing... he thinks... maybe... probably. He's working on it.

Here Katie & Kyle are at a park and she is telling him about breaking up with her horrible, cheating ex-fiance and how she couldn't even confront him.

(And it's a lovely spring day here! Probably not going to plant, but it'll be ice to see green again.) 😁

From the closing scene of Chapter 7 of The Stardust of Failure, in which Nicky reflects on his status as a man trapped outside his native "land" (by plague, etc.).

He got up from the sidewalk and patted himself. He wasn’t hurt. They’d taken his wallet, but not his keys or watch—not that his Swatch was worth anything. A white-bearded man in a soiled jacket, baggy pants, and a tired look on his face came up to him. “You okay?” The man smelled like he hadn’t bathed. Brushing himself off, Luke mumbled automatically, yeah, thanks.

My MC is mugged in the East Village in 1989. I'm excited to join #SundaySnips. #soil #writesky #literaryfiction

My MC travels to the world that's been sending slaves across the timelines in the hope of acquiring more of the special element that allows it. They're causing a lot of damage, not to mention the deaths of most of the slaves sent.

They follow the path but how is that? For surely they make the path,
Each foot scuffing dirt, crushing seedlings, packing soil, making path,
How can they follow a path
they are now making?
and they think that causality is linear and I laugh and laugh and laugh!

#SundaySnips
Using an intangibility-granting magic item to try and survive a long fall, and showing what happens when it runs out when inside something solid. Loosely based on videogame collision physics when you go out of bounds; it violently shoves you out to the nearest open area.

I don't have anything with buds like plants, but I do have a lot of earbuds and, in this case, a "buddy" which'll have to do!

A synonym from the #Dragon Novel.
Drake in dragon form here:

"Drake did a slow circle in the air and landed atop a green hill. Around them, the desert bloomed, spring rains lending life to soil that lay dormant and barren much of the rest of the year."

Then the trees cleared to grass, rolling like waves in the breeze. Buds of flowers held their breath, waiting to bloom at any moment. Weeds tumbled from beneath a tall oak she'd recognize anywhere. Marking it like a road sign that read "Welcome Home."
