You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it’s already happened."

Hi, everyone.

I had to take an unannounced hiatus from... pretty much everything, to be honest. You can find the details on my personal account if you're interested.

But I'm back! Stay In The Room is going to continue, but in a slightly different format. There will only be one prompt post per week, but that post will consist of multiple prompts. It's a little bit easier for me this way, and you get more prompts, so everyone wins!
