Damn that dealers room is a dangerous place. So many pretty books!

Finally made it to Brighton. Hopefully we can get into the swing of WorldCon tomorrow when we have recovered a few spoons.

Been re-reading the Tiffany Aching books recently and realised I have unintentionally picked Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax as sketch subjects #Inktober.

Does it eat yachts? I bet it eats yachts (that’s a Yes vote btw).

Well it is a wet a windy Friday, so I hope you are all keeping cosy. #Inktober Day whatever.

Human civilisation peaked with the Lord of the Rings extended addition box sets. It’s been all downhill since then.

I’ve seen a lot of fun suggestions about who might have carried out the Louvre heist. But who would be the best person to investigate this crime?

Happy Sunday everyone. #Inktober

Inktober Say 15 - Lady and cat

I had no idea this was a thing. I am delighted!

Something serene for today’s Inktober offerings.

Re-reading Wintersmith by the late great Sir Terry Pratchett.

Thank you. I know her work was the most important thing but she was such a beautiful woman as well.

Inspired by Jane Goodall

Still waiting for mine.

Happy Hobbit Day to all who celebrate.

The Politics Of Cruelty How do you solve a problem like Nigel…or Donald?

It would be very easy to link this piece to current events, but I’ll just say Everything is Connected.

What the hell is his problem now?

Thinking about setting myself an Inktober challenge (still a month off I know). I love to draw people with interesting ‘lived in’ faces. If anyone wants to send me photo of someone you know I will try to sketch them (no promises on quality).

Did Fiona Shaw ever play Mary Shelly? If not, it feels like a missed opportunity.

Mary Shelley - author of Gothic masterpiece Frankenstein - was born in London today in 1797.

Pleased to have managed to read a Welsh-language novel (well more of a novella, but still) for the first time. I didn’t understand every word but was able to follow pretty well. The narrator voice comes across really strongly even to someone reading in their second language.

I mean, the in-canon answer is ‘eating babies’ but I like your ideas better.
