Another relaxing session at Draw Your Stress Away. This is a chill guided drawing session that happens live over Zoom. Pumpkins were today's subject. That rough looking bird on the stem is a nightjar, which I added for an extra challenge. #drawing #art #nightjars #pumpkins

Friday’s Halloween party was a roaring success. Thanks, Marielle, for your vision and tireless efforts.

My roommate’s perfect traditional pumpkin and my ambitious, lopsided raccoon that came out looking angrier than I intended.

One of those books I'll remember liking more than I did. I could talk for hours about the world of Paradys, its history and monsters, its gender nonconforming characters, but I often felt detached from the protagonists, making parts of the book feel like a homework assignment. #books #booksky

If you don't plan to read all 39 Hercule Poirot books, make space on your TBR shelf for Sad Cypress. With courtroom drama and a possible death sentence at stake, it's a departure from Christie's formula. The solution caught me off guard, but it felt like a puzzle piece snapping into place.

Highly recommend this chill group on Meetup called Draw Your Stress Away. It’s a free guided drawing session that meets live on Zoom once a month. The drawings are simple, but participants are encouraged to stray from the prompt and make it their own. The skunk is my own addition! #art #drawing

My hunt for a new favorite author to replace Gaiman led me back to Krystal Sutherland. She's a master of sensory detail, which means you smell and taste everything. Blood, vomit, decomposition. Yup. Don't try to read Invocations in one sitting, but read it! #booksky #books #horror #witchy #mystery

Who should appear at Sacramento’s #farmtoforkfestival to do a solo acoustic set? Why, it’s Michael Angelakos of #passionpit, playing some old favorites and debuting a song about his cat!

Little praying mantis on my bike break! I gave him a home on our lemon tree. I hope the spiders don’t get him!

Some great pieces on display at the Crocker Art Museum. I like that the captions include a “look for” blurb that draws your attention to some easily overlooked detail in the artwork.

We’ve been Sacramento residents for 3 weeks now. So far I’m really enjoying our giant backyard with fruit trees, our Canada goose next door neighbors, the million and one book and record stores, and the bike paths that actually feel safe.

The art gallery at the #CAstatefair made the whole event worth the price of admission. I saw some gorgeous art pieces from local artists, some as young as 5, are already better than I’ll ever be. #art #painting #sculpture

Raccoon brothers at the #CAstatefair wildlife exhibit. They’re nocturnal, so they slept most of the day, but once the sun went down, they started wrestling. #raccoons #wildlife

Wait, there are TWO mystery novels about Agatha Christie's 11-day disappearance in 1926? Has anyone read both? #booksky #books #agathachristie
