Had an incredible time at the Gothic Crossroads conference at @manmetuni.bsky.social over the last few days! It was wonderful to listen to such an impressive variety of scholars, as well as to present my own research on Matthew Gregory Lewis’s Gothic women. Roll on the next conference! 👻

You’re not violating a reading rule if you opt not to finish a book that's not resonating with you. Life is finite and we thus have a finite number of books to read. Reading shouldn’t be a chore. You needn’t feel guilty for ensuring that your time reading is spent reading things that you love.

Tony Todd was one of the best to ever do it. From Candy Man to the Final Destination movies to his roles on Star Trek. He has a special place in my heart for his role as Cecrops, the Lost Mariner on Xena, and as the Alpha-Hirogen who wasn’t having Janeway’s bullshit that day. RIP to a great one.

Tony Todd as Cecrops the Lost Mariner on Xena: Warrior Princess. He has long dreadlocked hair and is wearing a beautiful billowing blue shirt with blue-silver gauntlets. His arms are crossed and his head is tilted, face in a thoughtful expression.
