I was overcome with desperation for these gorgeous illustrated hardcover books in my local indie bookstore- I started paging through the one on 'Witchcraft'. It is everything. Even the cover is by my favorite painter Waterhouse! ... but $40 each.... (;′⌒`)

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

If you write ‘unalive’ in prose or character dialogue, in your NOVEL - which I have seen TWICE NOW - I will immediately wince and full body cringe. The TikTokification of words has to stop. Your character almost DIED or was KILLED in your novel. They were not almost ‘unalived’.

This is your occasional reminder that Rose O'Neill, creator of the Kewpies, first published female cartoonist in the United States, and among the first cartoonists to build a merchandising empire on their work, turned out some absolutely baller, romantic-feeling size-difference monster art.

thinking about this poem again
a micro poem inspired after learning about Ikiryō, the spirit or ghost of a living person that can wander off to haunt people or places

My library had a copy of 'Sigil Witchery'! I like it so far and am trying Zakroff's suggestions in designing a sigil for protecting my new apartment- will report back.

also- it was in the YA section, lol. This library knows what teen girls are into (¬‿¬)

it's quickly turned into a very poor week.
Forced to stay at temporary lodgings, I found a songbird tangled, in distress, nearby. Texted a local number who could only euthanize the poor thing.
I'm devastated I didn't find it help in time. I feel a pall cast over me. Once home i'll burn a candle...

Was engaging with fellow writers on Threads—commenting, liking, just being myself.

Someone appreciated it so much they bought The Serpent’s Bridge (99¢!) even on a tight budget.

Made my day.
Be kind.
Be real.
Be you.

Never know who might discover your book and buy it. 💙

You've probably heard of the Kitchen Witch (hanging witch doll kept in the kitchen as a household charm). Have you met a Car Witch? A few little ones have landed in my Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/SiltiCr...

I wonder if it's occurred to some professional users of social media (the ones who scold us for making it a liberal echo chamber) that some of us aren't here as a job and aren't posting for money, and just want to chat with people we like.

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.

When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

My favourite library quote is from newsman Walter Cronkite:

‘Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation’
