I'm 43, and I feel like I'm finally curious enough to put together a 5th grade science project. But like, I'm 43. Adult science projects should be a thing.

People often ask me if I reread my books after they come out.
1. No. Never. Ew, David, ew. No.
2. I have no interest in reading my writing unless I'm writing/editing it. There is so much else to read.
3. I read the thing so many goddamned times while writing and revising. So many. YET STILL I ERR

When a heretical storyteller receives the ability to control fate - a power which binds her to the Empire’s future ruler - she will do anything to be free, even if it means trusting the ancient spirit in her mind. But stories lie, and fate is not so easily escaped.

After nearly 32 hours, I can finally say that the Cernunnos piece is finished, framed, and ready for Yule. I will admit, I'm incredibly happy with how it came out. What do you think? 👀

Etymology of the day: to be ‘blowing a hoolie’ (or ‘hooley’) was probably inspired by the Orkney word ‘hoolan’, a howling gale, with a touch of the ‘hooley’ that is a very noisy party thrown in.

Trying to think of a way to say this without it sounding cheesy but one thing about Tolkien that means a lot to me is that the darkness of the night only makes the Light of the Stars shine more brightly.
