La Sirena’s Blessing of Belonging V.M.

The Sunday Morning Transport paddles away from the city today with a story from V.M. Ayala (@spacevalkyries.bsky.social) that invites us to visit the ocean and make a wish. Read a sample or subscribe for the whole story!

I have two books events coming up and at least one or two more to be announced! If you're in Brooklyn or New Jersey, come say hi! I'm excited to sign copies of Shiva and talk about horror with you. πŸ–€

Thanks for sharing this! @beatriceiker.bsky.social had an awesome essay about hoodoo and its closed, ancestral nature up at Nightmare last year (www.nightmare-magazine.com/nonfiction/t...). Super important stuff.

As a total aside, thanks for all your hard work over the years! I really appreciate your insights and research, and your newsletters and social media streams are truly bright lights.

Girls mature faster than boys; so tell your boys to look to them for leadership - and trust them to be strong.

Nice little discussion here. When you think, you're not activating a thesaurus in a glass jar -- you're also drawing on your body, which is full of chemicals and other organisms.

The amount of sensory and corporeal data happening within the human body is vast! Human understanding includes a lot more than just the acts of making language.

It's International Women's Day. I'm thinking of the girls who were bombed in their school and all the children who have been hurt, killed, deported.

I would like peace for International Women's Day.

If you were investing in the future would you like to spend a billion or more dollars a day on a war for oil or would you like to spend that money to rapidly reduce your dependence on oil?

Now we get to see both of those approaches in real time.
