A couple weeks ago I did scoop up a praying mantis who’d wandered into a busy walkway, though. I just hope he wanted to go back out into nature. πŸ˜…

OMG, that’s so cuteβ€”but also good to know! I hope I get a chance to use this info one of these days. Luckily I haven’t had to rescue a bumble bee from the house for a while, but I’m pretty sure they’re friendly out here.

That’s gotta be fun to keep track of! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

… Gray?

Oh shoot I haven’t read that one forever… 🫣

You too! Always glad to connect with other writers and creative types.

That totally sounds like a way to start a war. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I’d happily take it off your handsβ€”send it my way! 🀣

Congratulations/good luck finding the answer to that! πŸŽ‰πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…

My day was indeed goodβ€”but nowhere near as magical as yours sounds! I don’t think I’ve ever even touched a bee, much less held one in my hand. How amazing. πŸ€—

Better than my initial approach, which was to use them interchangeably because I didn’t even notice the two different spellings. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

05.11.2025 22:22 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Interesting! I’ve always heard the different spellings are β€˜rules’. Guess this means all those American writers who like grey are right after all!

But what if your an American writing a story set in England?? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

(Not a serious question, I know this has nothing to do with which spelling.)

That spelling just looks more right, y’know?

05.11.2025 04:20 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Accurate.

I feel like there’s a long tradition in SFF of the British spelling being preferred even by American writers. (I would also objectively prefer it if I didn’t think I’d get constantly corrected πŸ˜…).
