#220: Out of Place
The airâs beginning to chill and goosebumps are rising on your skin like mushrooms on a log. With Halloween not far off, everythingâs beginning to feel a little⌠strange. Itâs got me thinking about all things odd, and one of the most unsettling sensations of all â noticing something thatâs out of place.
From things that shouldnât be where they are, to protagonists far from home, this weekâs prompts explore the bizarre, and the uncanny feeling of things being where they donât belong.
