Not saying all Widows Bay fans would like Holmwood exactly but perhaps they’d like a leading man who is absolutely the worst and a leading lady who is doing her best despite said man whilst they both deal with the horrors they’d have that in common.

Thirdly, you can listen to all of s1 of mine and @fiotrethewey.bsky.social's horror audio drama series, The Holmwood Foundation, for free on any podcast platform! It follows two researchers possessed by the ghosts of Jonathan and Mina Harker, trying to ferry Dracula's severed head across the UK.
Cover for The Holmwood Foundation podcast, featuring a detailed black and white illustration of Dracula's severed head, supported on a network of red strings against a crosshatched purple background. Textured lineless hands in various shades of purple reach from the sides to grasp him.

Still so happy that my @bigfinish.bsky.social story Much Ado About Racing is out in the world! We recorded it in October 2024 when I was still living in London so was able to go to the recording and I loved meeting Ani Sara & Anne Odeke - whilst also getting to watch Samuel in action as director.

In honour of Dracula season returning - and the approach of The Holmwood Foundation Season 1's one year anniversary - we present this brand new poster by the amazing @daruva98.bsky.social! Please go check them out and send them some love!
An illustrated poster design featuring a group of characters falling through a black void, followed from above by exploded masonry, science equipment and a pack of silhouetted creatures with white eyes, fangs and claws. Elena (a vampire with long black hair and a jumpsuit) swipes at Henri (a young woman with black hair and purple outfit, a severed hand clasped to her white labcoat) who is on the phone to Tom (A man with dark hair and red sunglasses, seen leaning out of a speech bubble in panic)

Below them, the Thralls cling to a backpack held by Maddie (a woman with blonde hair and a blue outfit) as she swings at them. Around her swirls Mina Harker, a blue-tinged ghost with identical features and outfit. Maddie's other hand is clasped by a disgruntled Jeremy (a dark-haired man in a grey suit), with looks on at the panicked ghost of Jonathan Harker (also identical in appearance to Jeremy)

Below them is a skull with fangs, its mouth open to scream as flashes of jagged static lance in all directions

Hey bsky! If you didn’t know already, we’re making a romcom! A heated, queer romcom set at a wedding! If you like romance, comedy, heists, hating billionaires or ridiculous farces, you should check out #WorstManOGN! Written/drawn by us, logo and lettering by the incredible @gofrankgo.bsky.social!
The cover to Worst Man. A handsome, skinny white guy with red hair, wearing a red suit, black shirt and orange tie is front and centre, toasting the camera. He's clearly been caught by a burly guy with olive skin and black curly hair, who's wearing a purple suit jacket, white shirt and purple tie. The burly guy is sat in a gigantic wedding cake, with the implication being he fell backwards into it catching the skinny guy. As a result the cake is collapsing around them, but the skinny guy's foot is holding up the cake topper, which is cartoony representations of a bride and groom.A comic page, with 5 panels. 4 panels are arranged in a stack down the left side, the fifth is a splash panel.

Banner at top of page: Saturday. Wedding in T-00h59m

PANEL 1: 

A close-in profile shot of a handsome, red-headed guy; he has a black eye and a thin trickle of blood running from his nose. He’s looking up, and mildly grinning.

GUY: I hate to be a bother, I do, but there’s an itch on my nose.

GUY: Hardly the end of the world, but would you mind?

PANEL 2:

A close shot behind the guy; we can see his hands, handcuffed behind the steel folding chair he’s sat on.

GUY: I’d do something about it myself, but my hands appear to be caught on something.

INTERROGATOR (OFF-PANEL): Is playing games something you really want to be doing right now?

PANEL 3:

The guy is cheekily flirting with the interrogator, who’s walking behind him.

GUY: You’re the one who put me in handcuffs…

INTERROGATOR: Come on, man…

PANEL 4:

The guy is rolling his eyes.

GUY: Fine. What do you want to know?

SPLASH PANEL:

Looking over the interrogator’s shoulder, as the guy is looking up at him, with a cheeky grin.

INTERROGATOR: What exactly have you been doing here? And why the fuck are you doing it?

GUY: Oh, you actually want my story? Colour me surprised.A comic page of 8 panels.

PANEL 1: a photograph of a group of people disembarking a fancy boat onto a jetty.

GUY (CAPTION): I was contracted to work this wedding, which let me tell you is stressful at short notice.

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Contracted?

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Who the hell contracted you?

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): What is it you even do?!

PANEL 2:

A cut-out panel of the guy one arm draped over the back of his chair, the other hand gesturing. He’s grinning charmingly.

GUY: I’m the Worst Man.

INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): …the what?

INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): And how did you get free?

PANEL 3:

The guy is flashing a grin and showing his hands in a shrug.

GUY: Oh, come on, I talk with my hands.

PANEL 4:

The guy is holding his hand in a “so-so” gesture.

GUY: Ok, so.

GUY: Sometimes there’s a couple that are settling, right?

PANEL 5:

The guy is pulling a “yikes” expression.

GUY: They’ve convinced they’re happy, they’re forever happy.

PANEL 6:

The guy is looking serious.

GUY: A friend or family member knows they aren’t, but doesn’t want the social fallout of pointing it out.

PANEL 7:

The guy is lazily gesturing to himself.

GUY: So they hire me to reveal the truth in a more subtle way, before they get married.

PANEL 8:

The guy is looking up.

INTERROGATOR (OFF PANEL): So why are you involved here?

GUY: In this case, the story goes back a while.A comic page with 4 panels.

PANEL 1:

A sprawled dossier showing research on a couple; a cis woman and a trans woman. 

GUY (CAPTION): Several years ago I was contracted to work on Galatea Telford and Merritt McElligott—

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): That’s the bride’s sister, not the bride.

GUY (CAPTION): Uh, yeah. What’s your point?

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): So she’s not who I’m asking about.

GUY (CAPTION): Patience. This is background.

PANEL 2:

A shot of the guy talking to Merritt and Galatea around a school teacher’s desk, planning some sort of schedule.

GUY (CAPTION): So I got a temp job at the school where Merritt and Galatea work.

PANEL 3: 

A shot of the three of them in a bar, with some other people. All of them are laughing except the guy, who’s a little more detached.

GUY (CAPTION): Even met some of their friends.

PANEL 4:

A shot of Merritt and Galatea back at the teacher’s desk, flirting. The guy is looking in through the door, a small, sad smile.

GUY (CAPTION): But what I was coming to learn was—

INTERROGATOR (CAPTION): Enough. I’m dying of old age here.

The HP franchise was such a big part of my childhood and adult hood I was known as the HP nerd. Even before coming out as trans, I had to, for my own sanity, push all that aside even though it was such a massive comfort to me. Sacha explains my feelings much better than I do, so do take a look ❤️
