Xena: Warrior Princess was a fun show, but it was hardly historically accurate. What might Xena and her companion Gabrielle have looked if they were actual historical figures? Here is artist Kênia Paula’s depiction of a historically accurate Xena & Gabrielle:

My current listen is 'Quest for the Dark Blade', book three in Malory's 'Morgan And Merlin's Excellent Adventures'. Loved the first two, and this one's off to a strong start. Jess Nahikian again does great job narrating.

My favorite scene so far is anything with Lancelot in it. Best Lancelot ever!

This has been described as "An intimate and moving parable that reads like a collaboration by Ursula K. Le Guin and Kurt Vonnegut, told using the language of modern fantasy while hiding beneath the appearance of classic high fantasy."

Aren't you a *little* intrigued? It's free to read... #BookSky

"The Elf Who Would Become A Dragon," is the #1 work of Tragic Fantasy on Royal Road.

A heartbreaking and heartwarming fantasy about rejection and belonging, power and consequence, and the cost of being ourselves.

More info and reviews 👇 #BookSky
"The Elf Who Would Become A Dragon," by L. J. Amber A strikingly beautiful elven woman – with ankle-length, golden, wavy hair, pale skin, and green eyes, wearing a shimmering silken dress in a style reminiscent of antiquity – is facing away from you with her hands clasped, looking back at you over her shoulder. She standing beside a field of red hyacinths, surrounded by forest to her left and right. In the background, a section of distant woodland is burning down, and above the black smoke, the golden clouds resemble a massive dragon. Yet, at her feet, in the foreground, is the same woman as a child. She ten years old, wearing a child's sundress with a brown-red coat. She is barefoot, and sits with one knee under her, the other drawn up to support her chin. A single red hyacinth, separated from the others, is growing right by her side. She too, is looking at you. This is Saphienne. In each incarnation, is she sad or angry? You find it hard to say. No matter how she feels, her gaze is judging you, and inviting your judgement in turn.

Perpetual's book is Transliterated, which starts with two people waking as a crow and a squirrel and goes from there. It's honestly really good. You should check it out.

The second book of my Draka series released in June. It's about a sheila getting transmigrated into a little dragon, doing dragon things. Third book's coming out in October.

Also coming in October is the first book of Splinter Angel, which could be described as "ASPD bodyguard gets isekai'd."

New current listen! RavensDagger's Stray Cat Strut 6 this time. Cat takes a "vacation," which she spends trying to fix the sewer system and terrorizing the deserving.

Hollie Jackson does a great job as always, and Pavi Proczko provides flavor excerpts.

Good fun!

19) Humans were made to create. Give humans enough free time, and they bake, they paint, they write, they make art, as evidence by the pandemic. It's intrinsic to us all, alongside rest and play.

This isn't SFF specific, but it's true, we are our imagination.

My current listen is Deus Ex Machina, from the Broker series by Derelict Presence. It's a superhero-do-over/become-a-villain-to-save-the-world trip, and 17 chapters in it's good fun! Here's hoping Sonya doesn't lose track of why she's doing what she does.
