Greetings from Kyiv,
where the night was calm,
where people finally have power in their homes,
where I’m waiting for our live talk soon
and having a warcoffee.

A long hair calico cat is lying in the sun next to the window. The sunlight is shining through her hair, creating a glow. She looks a little pensive, but comfortable.

O hushed October morning mild,
Thy leaves have ripened to the fall;
Tomorrow’s wind, if it be wild,
Should waste them all.
The crows above the forest call;
Tomorrow they may form and go.
O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow.
-Robert Frost

Thank you to @caimhmc.bsky.social for taking time to visit us on #BookshopDay. Here he is with a stack of books, the newly released Ring the Bells together with the first four Stranger Times in paperback. This is my favourite comic SFF series of recent years, highly recommended!
