Illustration of the Monarch of the Moon; a corrupted entity in mind and body. Once she was brilliant like the moon. A body of graceful silver. Now just like her home she has been twisted into a tainted form. All to preserve the world of mortals by keeping a soul hungering demon seed from being the thing that would be the start of the end of the world. The time when the gods of Chaos and Law will do battle, and little will survive this conflict.
The Monarch of the Moon was once a graceful entity. With the destruction of her already tarnished domain, she has fallen onto the mortal world; hellbent on punishing humanity for their transgression against the moon; for stealing the lunar lands to make new mortal islands.

I was reading the translators' notes of the edition of the Aeneid I own and discovered the definition of iambic pentameter. I read parts of the poem out loud and when I realized it was 10 syllables exactly, I shouted, "That's so cool!"
I wish I had studied Greek and Roman poetry.

An alternate cover to the Princess Bride by William Goldman. A nude woman kneels down in from of various monsters and beasts, her right hand touching the thick necklace around her shoulders. Her long, brunette hair flows behind her and a bird with outstretched wings perches atop her cap.
Friendly reminder that this is a cover for the fairy-tale classic The Princess Bride.

IT’S WOMEN IN HORROR MONTH!
Be bold
Take up space
Ask for more money
Closed mouths don’t get fed
Follow your intuition
You are enough
Authenticity is enough
Ditch those self limiting beliefs
Do it scared
Don’t give up
Cover is a scene at night. Vanya stands over a campfire, spear in hand. On a tree root next to her is a saber tooth tiger with a scar across its right eye. Beams of moonlight filter through the jungle foliage.

The first issue is out!!
Physical copies available from NADIRmagazine.com or catch me at Authorcon tomorrow.
Digital from Amazon - or if you want to (rightfully) avoid using them, shoot me an email at nadirliterature@gmail.com
@beegotten.bsky.social created something incredibly special for the first issue of NADIR. A contemplative and vicious tale about human brutality, forgiveness, and living on in memory.
Read it and six other wonderfully weird tales in our inaugral issue. Available @ NADIRMagazine.com
a (possibly) useful section of social media tips for artists:
— sometimes the idea matters far more than technical skill;
— that artist with "incomprehensible anatomy and questionable stylization" might get more likes because they resonate with people and that matters;

The cover to Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth. On a red background, flowers ringed the cover of the book with a yellow jacket below the middle.
3.5 out of 5 stars to Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth
This was an alright read. The character work is good and I really like the 1902 sections. The present sections were a bit underwhelming.
