Books are arriving and people are finally able to check out the creepy creatures of Christmas. It was a journey to get here but we made it!

Just in case any one who is interested doesn't know, Bjork has an excellent song about the Yule Cat. It's so good you'll want to learn Icelandic!

Is it fulfilling to see pictures of books in the midst of their own fulfillment?

Christina Ricci is older than Anjelica Huston was when she played Morticia in the original Addams Family film.
How does that make you feel?

Just a reminder that editing a physical page is much more effective than editing in a PDF or (not recommended) in the layout program itself.

The best thing you can do to become more efficient around the house and with future-planning is to start writing a novel. You'll find yourself doing literally anything else you can think of but spending time on it.

It's Friday 13th today! So naturally I dug out my podcast episode about the myths and misconceptions about both the date and the number 13!

Any old anybody can punish naughty children, but only Frau Perchta wipes her butt with unspun linen to prove how bad lazy children are. #folkhorror #creepmas #witchsky #pagansky

Folklore of Ornamental Birds: From Holy Birds to Death Omens - Icy Sedgwick Ornamental birds include peacocks, doves, and finches - birds kept for purposes other than simply eating. Read about their folklore here.

Humans have used for birds for hunting, their song, food or divination - and because some of them are pretty!

From death omens to holy birds, I'm looking at the folklore of peafowl, partridges, doves, and finches in this week's instalment of Fabulous Folklore!

Creepy Christmas Creatures: Weird Winter Folklore is getting close to the finish line. The Badalisc is one of our favorites, but with art from Dutch legend Esther Wijnacker, you know all the creatures will be a feast for the eyes.
