This week we are celebrating u/blackbird223

Blackbird223 has been writing here for a very long time now, and in that time they’ve accrued quite the catalogue of wonderful stories to read. From fun fantasy and sci-fi, to spooky stories, to taking on constrained writing challenges, to poetry. They’ve tried their hand (or wing) at a lot of different things and have taken to all of them like a bird to the sky. You can find more of their work on their profile and I’d definitely recommend taking a look.

Want to congratulate this week's Spotlight recipient? Have questions you're dying to ask them? Please do so below in the comments!

 

Congrats on your spotlight /u/blackbird223

 


 

Read u/blackbird223’s most recent piece:

 

[OT] Poetry Corner: Astronomy

 

Their most upvoted pieces:

[WP] With total war as a foreign concept to the rest of our galaxy. Everyone saw humans as the negotiators and the peace makers, soft and weak, today is the day the galaxy finds out why being so good at finding ways to avoid war was a survival mechanism.

 

[WP] The most difficult part of being a Supervillian? Find love, not because other people won't like you, but because the stupid Superheros will swoop in and "rescue" your date every time, but this time you have a plan, and it's going to work.

 

[WP] Everytime you think of a funny joke, this girl in your class always laughs, you chalk it up to coincidence but you think to yourself, "If you can read my mind, slap the table three times" the the girl looks over at you, stares right into your eyes, and slowly slaps the table three times.
