Guess I’m back. Gothic horror is still my church, in case anyone is wondering. Cover artwork by George Ziel.

I happened to be reading an interview with Guillermo Del Toro recently. He said his favorite Frankenstein interpretation is Chris Lee’s.

You have such a good eye for photos. I know I have said it before but I thought I would say it again.

I haven’t seen it yet but I know I will prolly love it. Love that Flanagan! And it was filmed in my hometown in AL.

Perfect. One of my favorite scenes in Salem’s Lot.

I made myself look creepy at a dance party. I like the ghoulish grin.

I hate my job. I work for corporate cartoon dickheads. Time to sew myself a catsuit. Hell here. 🔥🐈‍⬛

I still want to be Ripley, just without the alien DNA stuff. I don’t know why they did that.

Even my husband liked it. That’s rare. He’s a total snob.

I watched it last night. I loved the shit out of it! I don’t know how they pulled that off. Best horror I’ve seen in a while. Thanks, buddy!

Here’s some writing advice: 1) Do not listen to writing advice on social media. Seriously, I think some writers dispensing advice are trying to stop people from writing. No shit. 💩

I have been meaning to watch that one for a while now. For years, I’ve seen Mark Hamill say Harrison is hilarious in secret so maybe that is his real personality.

So pretty! I love England’s rolling green hills.

Looking back, he really was an international menace. I still love him though.

Some mornings, coffee cup in hand, my husband does his famous (in our house) Indiana Jones impression. It involves Indiana drunkenly discussing his many crimes, his traumas, his penchant for violence, his pursuit of an underage Marian, etc. This is, incidentally, the reason I married my husband.

Housework generally makes me feel overwhelmed. I might try your approach, see if that works.

Home sick so I am searching for vintage book covers. Doesn’t everyone do that? I found two with wanton Southern women on the covers. I am also a Gulf Coast Girl. Might I suggest you pair this one with Sin on Wheels? Have yourself a sleazy Southern shindig.

I love the mayor. I forget that actor’s name. I love Nathan Fillion too because Duh, I am a female person. Great movie.

It’s been a while. I have been distracting myself from crushing anxiety and dread by dancing (and drinking lots of wine). 🍷 🪩 It’s mostly kinda working.

More reasons to adore this house. The wallpaper, the shaggy carpet, the candelabra.

I love this one. It has stained glass in some kind of sacrificial sun god setup, a creeping statue garden and faintly yellow wallpaper.

Writing tip: Look at art you enjoy. It will trigger your subconscious . . . or something. Look at a cover and think what the hell is going on in this book? Ask yourself, what fresh fuckery is this? Examples below: George Ziel art. Yes, that is Phoebe Cates.

These are from 19th century illustrator Theodor Kittelsen. The first is a mountain troll. I don’t know what the 2nd is but I love water monsters. The old woman brings plague with her broom and there’s a dragon too. Gorgeous.

All these years I thought it was “I’m your huckleberry.” And it’s not. It’s “I’m your huckle bearer” which makes more sense but is oddly disappointing to me, for no real reason.

I am clinging to that notion also. A little hope is all we have.

I wrote a substack about Ingrid Pitt. I read her memoir. I admire her even more now. open.substack.com/pub/cynthial...
