Any COLORADO voters out there? Would love to talk to you about what it's like voting in your state!
Also: NEVADA and GEORGIA voters, too!
It feels like with the world on fire investing in artist and those fostering them is also a great thing to do if you can. If you need recommendations for some great small publishers I'd start with @stanchion.bsky.social and @malarkeybooks.bsky.social and then a million more.

A book with a black cover and white letters reading Queens of the Abyss/ Lost Stories from the Women of the Weird/ Edited by Mike Ashley/British Library of the Weird sits on a brick hearth. Its illustration in black and orange centers a woman with piercing eyes wearing a hood over her longish hair. She is flanked by two women whose faces are only partially shown. They also seem to be wearing hoods. Above their heads are distinct hands and what seem to be interlocked fingers. At top right of the brick hearth are silver and purple Mardi Gras doubloons and two king cake babies resting their heads on a gold bean. It's Carnival time, y'all!
Books have always been my friends, but now they've started to arrive just when I need them. Thanks to @eveninghouse.bsky.social for carrying this book. As soon I saw it on their site, I knew it'd become mine.
