Thanks to @februarygrace.bsky.social for allowing me to hang this up in my new lab space, to remind me why I am here. (Especially helpful as I grapple with a malfunctioning bot today!)

Hi, everyone: Just popping in to say thanks for the words of support and my apologies for the abrupt shut down of the #whistpr prompt. Just going through some things right now and need a break from intensive online stuff but I'm okay, so don't worry. Keep being your fabulous selves 💜

To possess is 9/10ths So on a legal basis You mostly own a previously frozen discount heart. I kept it cold I thought it best Until you or maybe it's this fucked up weather Changed conditions in my chest. Thanks for nothing, Jess Now I have to feel alive Without #whistpr#vss365

As it appears that #whistpr#vss365 prompts instead. Randomly my sister managed to choose the very first day in the archive, so that is where I am starting from, September 5th, 2016.

I will pass on to her your concern and appreciation for her whistpr account. There are more writing prompts if you haven’t tried them before you might give them a go :) or do a dictionary spin and choose your own words to write about.

hi @whistberry.bsky.social what happened to your whistpr account? 🥺

I really miss the #whistpr prompt every day now. I wish I had had the chance to thank Helen for all the time it was there before they went on break from here. It became part of my day I enjoyed so much and I miss it and their art. Am thinking I need to push myself now to keep writing small things.

Just discovered the whistpr account is deactivated. I hope they’re OK. I know they said they were taking a break but I still hope they’re OK. 🥺

It appears that the Whistpr prompt account has been deleted, and as such I will need to figure out another way to continue my story. I will not pry into why it is now gone, as it is none of my business, I just hope Helen is okay.
