Last night I went to the Puca Festival in Trim, Ireland.

It's all fun and games until someone unleashes a giant demonic hare.

I’m excited to share my finished marionette/puppet, Gourd-fellow the pumpkin sprite. This is my first marionette and I had so much fun making him, I'm probably just gonna turn into Geppetto now. 🎃

Did you know that rape within a marriage was not a crime until relatively recently?

@sarahweinman.com has written a stunning exploration of this hidden history and the landmark case that changed everything.
At long last, I’m thrilled to announce that my new book, WITHOUT CONSENT: A Landmark Case and the Decades-Long Struggle To Make Spousal Rape a Crime, will be published on November 11, 2025 and is available for pre-order wherever books are sold! www.sarahweinman.com/book/without...
