'In Fermanagh, the almost total disappearance of greys and re-emergence of red squirrels is being largely put down to pine martens.' This is a great story.

Although it’s rainy today.. I just want to say the light this autumn has been so clarifying and incredible.

"The apparitions are getting worse. The air in the vaults feels like a thin curtain that could be ripped away at any moment. I do not know what door I opened in search of the afterlife, but I pray to all the gods it isn't the one our souls go to in the end."

A quick one for the spookiest of seasons

Pen and ink illustration depicting a darkened doorway in a stone wall. A robed scholar scrambles away from the doorway in a panic, having dropped his writing implements, as a monstrous, glowing apparition manifests in the darkness beyond. At first glance, it appears vaguely humanoid, but has the suggestion of three heads, many mouths, and an indeterminate number of limbs.

Love this photograph of Leonora Carrington, currently on display at the excellent LEE MILLER exhibition at Tate Britain. #LeeMiller #Tate #art #London #BookSky 💙📚

Black and white photograph of Leonora Carrington sitting with her hands around her knees.

Close-up view of the same photo. Taken in 1939, I think?

For anyone who frequents their local record store, the term “cheap heat” is likely a familiar one. Ramsey Lewis’ 1970 funky soul jazz gem Them Changes, a record we’ve never seen priced higher than $10 that burns hot.

‘Now we are broke, the sky was the colour of a dirty nickel, and a mean mountain wind cut down Larimer Street.’
I’ve only ever met one of the people in the article (not Kerouac) and I can 100% guarantee that the backstory to this piece would make a delicious piece of film by whoever directs it
