What do you do when there's a murdered bloke outside the window, a tea-drinking fae in the kitchen, a vampire sniffing at the door, and a cold-eyed fae with a very big sword hanging around?

my fave kind of urban legend
I was reading a book the other day and the author threw in a passing mention to a bridge in Cork, Ireland which I’m pretty sure was a gift to me personally because what do you mean the locals have called it The Shakey Bridge for so long that recent conservation works were forced to retain the wobble

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

It was an absolute pleasure to appear on Wizards and Spaceships podcast with some thoughts on How to Write a Fantasy Battle! Many thanks to Rachel and David for hosting me!
It's time to get your war on! @suzannahrowntree.bsky.social tells us how medieval battles were *really* fought and how they can work as a model for fantasy writers.
