Thanks. “Quacky” was definitely the odd man out among the list of words.

Love this!

Here's my submission for Octobers Prompt. I may have misunderstood, as I used all the words given in the prompt, is that correct...? Here it is in all its glory "Back to your place" https://open.substack.com/pub/linnhe/p/back-to-your-place?r=24lshr&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web Thank you!

Yep, the idea was to use all the words! (It wasn't a hard and fast rule, but that was the idea.) So good for you for getting them all in!
