Thanks for taking the time to read and for your kind words. What can I do to help?

Maybe I just write something once every couple of months and that’s enough. It arrives like a wave and washes back out again. Maybe that’s the beauty of creating.

Today, a 3AM love poem.

You can read the entire poem on my Substack. open.substack.com/pub/ravenwat...

Now that the shop is open, shelves are stocked and I’m caught up on the business side of things…it’s time to get back at it!

I’m preparing the Moth Bound story for submission this week. Eeek!

Anger holds wisdom and energy. Yoga isn’t about bypassing emotions—it’s about making space for them.

This month, we’re practicing Gratitude—even for anger. Move with me:

✨ Mon – Yin | 4 PM
✨ Thurs – Mindful Movement | 5 PM
✨ Sat – Yin | 9 AM

Join me online or in person.

When we practice gratitude we don’t ignore our struggles but we reframe the viewpoint helping us to tap into moments of appreciation, beauty, joy and connection.

Upon seeing this titel, I knew I had to have this book. Growing up, not whistling at night was one of the things that I was regularly warned about. And the cover is stunning, too.

#booksky #indigenousbooks #indigenousbooksky
#Anthology #darkfiction

💙📚

The cover of "Never Whistle at Night" features a colourful and detailed illustration against a dark background. The title is displayed in large white letters, with the subtitle "An Indigenous Dark Fiction Anthology" in orange above it. The book is edited by Shane Hawk and Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., with an introduction by Stephen Graham Jones.

The illustration includes various elements such as plants, flowers, and animals. A long red snake with pink markings winds through the greenery. There are also eerie yellow eyes hidden among the grass, a frog, a mouse, and a skull-winged moth.
