Queer Fantasy and Weird Tales for the People
City and Colour, “Woman”
Good morning. This is coming out a little late, but I hope you enjoy this song.
There will be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week, though I’m not certain when; as you can tell, my schedule is a bit off this week.
In any case, I hope you have an excellent week, and the sun is shining wherever you are.
The Black Keys, “I Cry Alone”
Happy Monday. This week, and really every week, is a good week to take some time to do something nice for yourself and also some time to send one or more of your elected representatives a strongly-worded message.
No new chapter this week, so be sure to visit the Stories tab above for anything you’ve missed!
Have an excellent week.
Mediaeval Baebes, “Now Welcom Somer” (traditional)
It’s Monday again. I hope you are all well.
There should be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door up this week, though I’m not sure when I will get around to posting it. Check back soon!
Have an excellent week.
Alela Diane and Alina Hardin, “Matty Groves” (traditional)
Happy Monday!
Not much to report this week. You can read the latest chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door here.
The Tea and Sidequests channel will be live on Twitch tonight and Saturday night.
Have an excellent week.
Them Crooked Vultures, “Dead End Friends”
Happy Monday!
I hope you are well and can hear the birds sing, wherever you are.
There will be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week, probably Friday. Check back here soon!
I’ll also be streaming with the Tea and Sidequests channel tonight and Saturday night.
Have an excellent week.
Belly, “Feed the Tree”
Happy Monday!
May this week bring sunshine, the easing of burdens, and the furtherance of justice.

Emily Smith, “King Orfeo” (traditional)
Happy Monday!
This song, a retelling of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, is one of the few surviving examples of Norn, a Scandinavian dialect that was once spoken in the Orkneys and Shetlands. The refrain goes “Scowan urla grun/ Whar giorten han grun oarlac” (“Early greens the wood/Where the hart goes yearly”). Other extant uses of Norn include names for the colors and patterns of sheep native to the region.
There will be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week! Stop by around Thursday. If you haven’t read the latest chapter, visit the Stories tab (above, or click the link) to catch up!
I’ll also be on or around Twitch tonight and Saturday night. I’m looking forward to getting back to a regular streaming schedule.
Have an excellent week.
Fiona Apple, “Criminal”
Happy Monday!
Not much to report this week. I’ll be trying to finish this draft of my manuscript, so there won’t be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door. Once this draft is finished, there will be new and exciting things happening, so stay tuned.
I’ll be on Twitch tonight and Saturday night, 6pm US Central.
Have an excellent week.
Stevie Ray Vaughan, “Pride and Joy”
Happy Monday! I’ve lived in the Midwest too long to proclaim that spring is here, because winter will inevitably reappear to punish me for my hubris, but it has been very nice outside.
There will be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week! Visit the Stories tab above to catch up before that happens, which should be Friday at the latest.
The Tea and Sidequests channel will be live on Twitch this evening and Saturday evening. ETA: Not on Saturday, I forgot about another commitment. Sorry about that.
I think that’s all. Have an excellent week.
Monica Heldal, “Swan”
Good morning! It’s Monday again.
No new chapter this week, but if you missed last week’s chapter, you can find it under the Stories tab above (or just scroll down from here on the home page). Now’s a good time to catch up on The Book of the New Moon Door! Part One will be finished in the next month or so.
I’ll be on Twitch tonight and Saturday night playing some games. You can join me if you like.
Have an excellent week.
