Halloweek Dark Arts & Crafts: Part II - spooky bookmarks from scrap paper!
October 30, 2025 at 5:27 PM
First Halloween craft of Halloweek complete! I burnished these cast black witch boots and I could not be more pleased. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the all black look, but when used as decor, they had a tendency to fade into their surroundings.

AI-generated "books" are flooding Amazon and other online retailers.

Here is a regular reminder: Take note of who published the books you read or buy.

Presses are perhaps more important than ever in helping identify trustworthy resources in a failing information ecosystem.

"Inviting readers into a relationship with the people who make their books feels beneficial to the whole ecosystem, and in my experience the catalog often feels like a prominent way to achieve that sense of connection..." - Loved reading this piece by @derekkrissoff.bsky.social this morning!

This is essential reading. I will also be picking up Macy's book PAPER GIRL that just came out on the 7th.

Since it is the first day of October AND Witchy Wednesday, I thought we could try something different and fun - a look at the Halloween reading lists for the Sanderson Sisters! Which reading list do you like? Does it match up with your favorite sister?

and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!”

Halloween sweaters have been brought up from the crypt. Nevermind that it’s still basically 90+ degrees in Oklahoma. Happy October Eve!
