#3Things for THURS: Day of Wheat & Sage
1. A mole breached the perimeter on one of my raised beds, squeezed past the hardware cloth in the bottom. Sigh. I normally admire persistence
2. Craniosacral sesh today 🎉
3. Look at these beautiful gems coloring up in the garage! A taste of summer in winter

I hope everyone has a really good day. I know those can be hard to find these days, so seek out those who make you feel comfortable, make you smile. Shut out the extra noise that makes you feel depleted or unwell. And do a lil self-protection to secure your personal space! #witchsky

THANK YOU, Mary. I'm unaware of what's happened w/Matt 🥺 I💜 #HorrorWritersChat sessions (even if I'm not always online when they occur). Matt's energy/welcoming attitude make socials worth the time spent in front of the💻.

#HorrorWritersChat
A: Matt was spot on... I just wrote about the coming rise of co-creators: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Poetry films do it for me. My latest [Lunatic] not so subtly touts the return of the season of the witch.

#HorrorWritersChat

A: I've been writing from dream content for decades and recently wrote about this one from back in 1973, pre-internet, cable, cellphones, even faxes. I dreamed the Jonestown massacre the evening on the day it happened. The next day I saw the story on the Oregonian front page.
#HorrorWritersChat Q3

This one is going to be hard.

One of the last things Matt asked us at Horror Writers Chat was to share a horror writing related dream.

This can be;
> an actual dream that inspired you.
> a dream you have for your writing career.

Interpret this any way you’d like.

#HorrorWritersChat

A: Horror narrative is perhaps the most honest form of truthtelling there is, as it catalogs, without flinching, the darkest depths of the human condition.
#Horrorwriterschat Q2:

So many things! I think, in the spirit of both Matt & the chat, so much of it comes down to community and friendship. There's a lot the genre *does* and allows us to explore, but fundamentally, like most human art, it's about sharing with one another and expressing something
#HorrorWritersChat Q2
This is one of Matt’s favourite questions to ask us:

What does horror mean to you?

I'm Tamara and I write different kinds of horror (occult/folk/body/supernatural/psychological/cozy/literary) as well as make short poetry films (some of them leaning into horror) and podcast about writing horror at BENEATH THE RAIN SHADOW.

of all the Epstein Island images shared this morning, this one is the creepiest of all

dentist chair?

what are those masks?

Also, the walk through video as a whole really gives off BLINK TWICE vibes

#3Things for TUES: Day of Thistle & Ginger
1. Done w/holiday leftovers

For a little flash of a truth we forget, like we forget what summer feels like in the depths of winter, a #birddivination from the summer red-bird. Find it as a solo print and part of the deck of 100, along with the story and process behind them, at almanacofbirds.org

I simply adore the rich details of Kyla Zoe Rafert’s subjects and the harmony they share with one another in this ink on paper illustration.
