Just checking Etsy stats - I've had 144 orders this year. (Doesn't say how many individual items.)

Not going to get to to 150 in the next 7 hours, but fingers crossed for 1 or 2 more!

The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

This. This is the post. My god.

I can't explain it, but you know I'm right.

This Christmas, give the gift of monsters.
If you know someone who is a fan of DEMON SLAYER, K-POP DEMON HUNTERS, POKEMON, or GODZILLA, I guarantee you will delight them by surprising them with a copy of THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO JAPANESE YOKAI this Christmas.

It is THE most comprehensive guide to supernatural Japan in English

Some buildings cast a haunted shadow. In their umbra a remberance of fear. For every castle ruin the tourist board tries to sell as romantic ruin there stands a tower which was terror warden. We live in a landscape ghosted by old violence, a landscape of psychic bruises. – #CJosiffe

How far can we stretch the sci-fi fantasy elements of "jellyfish in space"?? This week, the SFF Bestiary reads Aliette de Bodard's Hugo-nominated novella Navigational Entanglements!

Jellyfish are profoundly alien to our human biology and psychology — so they make sense as space aliens

ALIENS (1979)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 23” x 14”

The concept here is that the aliens and the lone human-—who is an alien to the others—are posing for a group photograph, with the photographer being out of view to the right. 1/4

I’ve posted this before but the light was perfect today- a little Victorian cat paw in a brick at the front of the old Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. As this is on the front-facing corner of the main gates, the bricklayer quite clearly put it there on purpose, at a height where children would spot it.

Had a dream last night that was the usual mess, but at the end, I was watching a giant polar bear walk toward me, carrying a volcano like a snailshell on its back.

“Welp,” I said to the person next to me, “that’s either a god or a Pokemon.”

This guy has wildly escaped containment and I love that people like it, but to reiterate:
1.Yes you can get it as a tattoo.
2.No you cannot sell craft patterns or merch
3.I appreciate the mistake and yes I do have the personality of a morose victorian poet, but this is from 2024 and under copyright.

A new book! By me! About something 'orrible on the London Underground!
It's out in six months and I think you're gonna like it...
‼️ COVER REVEAL ‼️

There's something lurking in the stifling darkness and labyrinthine tunnels that run below London... something old, something vicious, and something very, very hungry.
