Thought I was gonna read the OG Robert W. Chambers before getting to my library books. But sneak-attacked by good old 19th century American racism on the 3rd page. Not a pov I want to exist in right now, so King in Yellow goes back on the shelf.
Piper & Moreno-Garcia won't do me dirty like that.

Should have held off listening to this episode of @talkscaredpod.bsky.social for a few more weeks. I'd feel better if I didn't know how much I wanted to read Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil.

I think I'm on a semi-accidental trend to watch every Frankenstein movie ever made before the del Toro's version comes out. The Algorithm just showed me a Toei Animation version which you can watch on youtube.

Found a "new" tarot deck in my favorite junk store this morning. It was pristine except for the 8 of Pentacles.
Annie is the name of one of the MCs in this novella I'm working on.
I'm not a witch. But these things happen sometimes.

My reward for finishing this draft is gonna be a fancy new notebook, but I can't decide between the one which matches my current nautical themed journaling setup or the lush one I wouldn't be able to stop drooling on.

Question 3: Share a moodboard or some images that give us the vibes of your WIP!
I haven't done a mood board yet, but The Unicorn in Captivity is one of the very foundations of the novella I'm working on (and it's working title!)
