Mock-up version of my art gallery Halloween costume. Many more mini pieces of art to be added. Would welcome tiny art from others

The fuck up in my book snake coincided with the start of 2 months inability to focus on any book or audiobook. As I began catching up on the knitting, my enjoyment of books has returned. Go figure.

Taking a break from knitting Cuthbert and knitting emotional support chickies! Still struggling to find audiobooks available on the platforms I have and that I can stay focused on. I already listened to at least 40 this year. In the meantime, podcasts are taking over!

Also have to share that my neighborhood has some additional sidewalk joy. The Bridgerhen Coop Little Library is halfway between a Free Little Library and treasure exchange...chicken themed. And it's only a block away from me so it gives me so much joy. #sidewalkjoy

I did some tinking (iykyk) I HATED the light pink and ended up switching it out for a varigated color. I also went through WAAAY too much effort for one book that was equally history and science. Usually I can decide which genre it fits better if it has multiple labels. Not here #booksky #booksnake

Check out Cuthbert! The speed of his growth is due to audiobooks, but I am able to engage with a wider variety of content this way. I bet that all my nonfiction will be audio! Not loving the color of the latest stripe but I was determined to use yarn from around the house. #booksky #booksnake
Knitted snake with colorful stripes. Each color indicates the genre of book that has been read

I was in St. Paul for 5 days for an amazing training with the Ideal Center at the Science Museum and during that time I managed to swing out and visit 6 Free Little Art Galleries! Apparently I can only post four photos though.

Over the last 4 years, a number of people in my area have talked about building their own Free Little Art Gallery, but I think the one that I heard about most recently will actually follow through which is pretty exciting. #freelittleartgallery #artsky
Mini art museum with mini patrons looking at the art. Mostly works on paper but several with colorful felt, and three with pipe cleaners.

It's Women's History Month and while I haven't arranged the gallery as nicely as I sometimes do, I have put in several pieces to honor women in history.

Reading a mystery, listening to a mystery. I guess I know what color my next stripe will be. Well... not the very next as I have some catching up to do- but Cuthbert is looking fine.

Cuthbert the booksnake is now 14 color stripes long. Also in the photo is the book Murder Your Employer, the McMasters Guide to Homicide by Rupert Holmes

Just finished listening to "We'll Prescribe You a Cat" by Syou Ishida and decided that I needed a dose of cat myself. Hogan at Wired Whisker was just what the doctor ordered. He chose my lap twice

(Not my pattern) but I am starting a book snake to document the books I read this year- different colors for different genres. Doing stockinette stitch for audiobook and seed stitch for books that were in print.
Debating which genres to pair together to limit colors- like mystery/thriller

Cuthbert the book snake. A knit project that is just begun, light blue snake with multi colored stripes denoting genres of books read. Only 4 finished stripes with a 5th started

I am only about an hour into listening to A Woman of No Importance by Sonia Purnell but I can already say that I would recommend it. I wish I wasn't seeing so many parallels to present day though.

Cover of A Woman of No Importance: The Untold Story the American Spy Who Helped Win World War 2 by Sonia Purnell. It shows a woman walking away from the camera, towards a soldier holding a gun that is angled toward the ground. There is a vehicle further up the road. The photo is done in shades of blue-gray instead of straight black and white, giving it an ethereal quality.

Current reads: Never Whistle at Night (physical copy) and Fantasicland (audiobook)

Both are really engaging so far and I think part of the reason I have had a hard time going back to sleep is that FantasticLand has me intrigued.

Reading both as part of #popsugar 2025 reading challenge
Cover of Fantasicland by Mike Bockoven. Title in white text, author in red. Image is a backlit ferris wheel. The image combined with the colors give it an eerie feeling Cover of Never Whistle at Night, an Indigenous Dark Fiction Anthology. Black background. Greenery frames the cover with yellow eyes peering out near the bottom. It is very chaotic and coloful visually. Flowers with eyes as the middle, a large red and black snake framing the bottom half and a riot of colorful but ordinary flowers.

First year using storygraph and I love it. I worked through about half of the Popsugar challenge and then went off in random directions. Had enough focus to read 23 physical books this year (zero for the last few years).

Cover of Blind Rage: Letters to Helen Keller by Georgiana Kleege. The image appears to be an older Helen Keller reading braille.

I like doing monthly or biweekly themes with the gallery and I have been slacking any fun ideas for December?
