Song of the Week

Anais Mitchell and Jefferson Hamer, “Tam Lin” (Child Ballad 39)

Good morning! Today’s my birthday. I hope you’re having a good day.

I met so many cool people at the Fall Fon du Lac Spirit Fair! I get a small break this week, and then it’s off to the Scorpio Market in Madison on November 9th. Then I think I’m done for the rest of the year.

If you backed the Figuratively Speaking Mermaid Tarot Kickstarter, I am happy to report that the decks have been ordered. I’ll let you know as soon as I get any updates.

The newsletter will come out on Thursday the 31st, so if that’s something you’re interested in, put your email address in the box at this link. Then be sure to check your inbox for a confirmation.

I appreciate your patience as I work to finish Journey to the Water. I’ll be back on Friday with an update for you.

Petitions I’ve collected this week:

Via No Business With Genocide: Pressure Congress to help end the civil war in Sudan

Via USCPR: Block $20 billion in weapons to Israel

Via Action Network: Protect journalists & press in Gaza

That’s it for today. As always, I appreciate you. Have an excellent week.

Fall Fon du Lac Spirit Fair Tomorrow!

Tomorrow, I’ll be packing up my books and heading to The Hive, W4786 County Highway 23, Fon du Lac, Wisconsin for the Fall Spirit Fair! Admission is one non-perishable food item or cash donation to the Sheboygan County Food Bank. The market opens at 10AM, but you should come at 9 if you want to book an appointment with a reader. For more information, here’s Spyral Events’ website, and here’s the Facebook event.

I am plugging along on Journey to the Water, and I’m currently rewriting what was Chapter LIX in the serial version (now chapter XXVII). Current word count is 112,850.

Song of the Week

Peter Gundry, “The Last Dance”

Hello!

I had a lovely time at both Milwaukee ParaCon and What the Hex, but now I am exhausted. Hello to everyone I met this past weekend! I’m happy you’re here. If you signed up for the newsletter, I’ll be adding your email to my mailing list as soon as I can move the cat off my box of convention things, and the newsletter will go out on the 31st.

I’ll be heading out to Fon du Lac, WI on Saturday for the Fall Spirit Fair! (Link takes you to the Facebook event). In the meantime, I’m working on Journey to the Water. I’m hoping for a November release (probably end of November), and I’ll have a release date for you soonish. Stop back later this week for more updates.

A couple of petitions for today:

Via Rep. Rashida Tlaib: End the occupation, begin the path to peace

Via USCPR: Block $20 billion in weapons to Israel

Via Our Revolution: Tell Biden to stop fueling Israel’s wars

May you have peace and comfort this week.
