I'm thrilled to have a story in this! 😊

Today I saw a squirrel's ear tufts swaying in the wind.

Subscribers already got a sneak peek at Issue 20’s cover art and TOC over on Patreon. They will be released here this weekend, with a full release of our fantastic 20th issue on March 1st! 🧡🐸

If you've ever bought digital books on Amazon, now would be a good time to download backup copies for your personal archive. They'll be discontinuing the ability to download e-books on Feb 26th and everything will have to be done through their ecosystem. #bookSky 🧵 Here's how to do it:

Finished downloading ALL my kindle books.

Found this sweet little door stopper yesterday at a shop. According to the price tag, his name is Daryl. He's made of wrought iron so he's quite heavy and probably quite brutal to doors, so I might just use him as a paper weight or something but he's mine now.

This is such a stunning, visceral flash and an excellent selkie story.

Happy Valentine's Day! Our present to you today is a BIG list of stories and poems we've published on the theme or subject of love! 1/34

How different birds would act on a first date...a thread. (From us to you this #ValentinesDay) 💕👇

It's a double squirrel kind of day. The left one was so skittish approaching the other who did not care.

Spotted this old typewriter at a flea market today. It even has the Finnish/Swedish keys ÅÄÖ.

Celebrating yesterday's short story acceptance and the day of the Finnish poet J.L. Runeberg with a Runeberg torte. The cake contains almond & arrack flavouring and is topped with raspberry jam and a ring of icing. 😊

Saw a glimpse of a new cat in my snowy garden today. Black and orange and fluffy.

This helps soothe the soul right now. #poetry #hope #nature #resist #bluecrew #teamjustice

I have a little plea and it's this: please keep posting about things that aren't The Horrors. I am not saying to not look at or be informed about The Horrors. What I am saying—what I am genuinely kind of begging you to do—is keep posting about books and movies and sunsets and pets and joy. Please.
