Queer Fantasy and Weird Tales for the People
Cat Stevens/Yusuf, “Morning Has Broken”
Happy Monday!
First, a request: if you’re in the US and it’s at all possible for you, vote early. Here are some resources for different states.
I’ll be back on Wednesday with a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door. While Berend has been dealing with the haunting in the Belisia estate, Isabel continues to investigate what happened to Mikhail.
Have an excellent week.
Sage Francis, “Black Out on White Night”
Happy Monday!
For my US friends, we’re three weeks from the election. Make a plan to vote.
I’ll be back on Wednesday, if my time management is adequate this week, with another chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door. We’re finishing up the haunted house in this chapter, so I hope to see you then!
ETA: Chapter Five will go up late on Thursday. Thanks for your patience.
Have an excellent week.
Loreena McKennitt, “Dante’s Prayer”
It’s Monday again.
With the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a lot of bad things are about to happen in America.
But they haven’t happened yet. Contact your senators and demand they do everything in their power to prevent another Trump appointee to a lifelong seat. Phone calls are the most effective; the Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121.
Be prepared to march and keep an eye out for events in your area. Wear your mask!
Check your voter registration even if you’re pretty sure you’re registered. If you’re not, you can register here. At this stage, the best defense against voter suppression is overwhelming numbers. Due to Coronavirus, there will be a shortage of poll workers, so if you’re low-risk you can volunteer (and even get paid in some places): more information here.
I’ll compile more resources as I find them. I’ll also be back on Wednesday with the next chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door, for a bit of escapism.
Keep fighting the good fight.
The Paul Schwartz Project, “Il Gioco” (from Il Ritorno d’Ulisse in Patria by Giacomo Badoaro)
It’s Monday again. Please enjoy this song.
If you’re reading this from the US, now’s a good time to check your voter registration and find out how to vote absentee in your state. Sheer numbers are a good way to beat voter suppression.
I am planning on announcing a new project this week, so watch this space!
Keep fighting the good fight, and have an excellent week.
Joni Mitchell, “This Flight Tonight”
It’s Monday again.
Willow Ford, one of the authors I profiled in this post, has released her new book, The Fadian Experiment! You can find it on Amazon here.
Have an excellent week, and keep fighting the good fight, because it certainly isn’t over.
ETA: If you can, please consider making a donation to the Milwaukee Freedom Fund, which is supporting protesters in Kenosha.
Kate Bush, “Wuthering Heights”
Happy Monday!
I hope you are enjoying the blog remodel. If there are any further readability upgrades I can make, please don’t hesitate to ask.
There is a possibility I’ll be able to get some new content up this week. Failing that, I’ll have something next week.
If you’re in the US, please contact your local legislators and representatives and urge them to resist the invasion of federal agents in unmarked vehicles to your city. Here’s a resource you can use.
Keep fighting the good fight, and have an excellent week.
