Every time I share one of these I feel kinda like I’m being pushy but each one only gets about 15-20 new subscribers.

Bit of a mystery why so many more people follow me without also following the SciArt Feed. Maybe just from me being in Starter Packs?

The Crone Zone is now Halloweenified. I am still on the fence about an actual jack-o-lantern this year, but the non-perishable decorations are in place.

The main window of the Crone Zone, decorated with three paper jack-o-lanterns, and a string of ten flashing pumpkin-shaped lights.

OTD 1975: #DoctorWho Planet of Evil Part Three
Many of Doctor Who’s thrilling terrors enraptured little me, cliffhangers staying in the mind and nightmares repeating scary bits for sheer joy
But – 50 years ago today – this end terrified me beyond all others:
A horrific sci-fi twist on burial alive.

The Morestrans argue over whether ejecting the Doctor and Sarah Jane into space will help

The unconscious Doctor (Tom Baker) and helplessly all-too-awake Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen) are locked into metal trays on conveyors, about to move into exit chutes

Sarah Jane looks up in horror as the metal coffin she’s locked into starts to move down the chute into space

Sarah Jane looks out in horror as the metal coffin she’s locked into moves further down the chute into space

I'm in Part Three so I'll avoid spoilers... but I had forgotten how wonderfully atmospheric this one was!

Sarah is an Aboriginal woman raised by white parents after being removed from mother Ruth in hospital at birth…Although Ruth offers her protection against the Moogai intent on stealing babies, Sarah rejects her ways.

A ★★★½ review of The Moogai (2024)

Lately I find that I really like folk horror. It may be why I rate this higher than most. Give me spooky tales from your ethnic background and I am there! Moogai is defined by this movie as equivalent...

The media double-speak of "Israeli hostages" and "Palestinian prisoners" is infuriating.

Call them "Palestinian *political* prisoners" or "Palestinian hostages."

Hundreds of those detained without trial are Palestinian *children.*

While I am very stressed about finding a new job, I am also trying to use the unexpected free time productively. So I am unhappy to announce that I actually was able to revise a story I proclaimed unreviseable.

What does this mean about finishing my novel? It can be done? Is that what this means?
