Might as well post it here! A magical girl animation I've been slowly chipping at over the weekends for ages.

From the introduction to the Hookland Tourist Board I=SEE STRANGE HOOKLAND book:

REMEMBER:

Don’t go out by yourself at night. Many things in this book are thought to be imaginary, but being out by yourself in the dark can still be dangerous – even if you don’t encounter the Danebury Grim.

If you see something that scares you, tell a parent or a trusted adult such as a teacher. In extreme cases where you can’t find an adult you can trust, you could even tell a police officer.

Don’t provoke Faeries of any type. You would not like people shouting your name, poking you in your bed with a stick or throwing stones in your bath, so don’t do it to Faeries. No-one likes ill-behaved children, least of all the Elves of Hookland.

Don’t signal for UFOs with torches. It is not only a waste of batteries, it can be misinterpreted by the emergency services. Besides, we can’t promise that all UFOs are friendly or interpret your signal as a positive message.

Show some respect for the graves of the dead. If you were buried in the ground you wouldn’t appreciate another child dancing on your grave or trying to dig it up would you?

Remember to take extra care when looking for things around water – both by the sea and along rivers and pools. Even if he is imaginary, the King-Under-the-Sea should be shown some deference and Stay Belows not encouraged to grab at you when dangling your legs or trailing your hands in cool, apparently calm water.

Imaginary things can’t hurt you unless you believe in them with all your heart and then they are really quite dangerous.

Whilst out and about and cake-bothering booksellers, I saw my first Hookland sticker out in the wild.

A Hookland sticker on a pipe covering up some fascistic filth. The sticker reads: HERNE THE HUNTER HATES YOUR RACIST BOLLOCKS

Goodnight from Gemma Wray, who knows enough about predatory spirits to refuse the pleas of entry to her cottage by silver-eyed children claiming to be lost. Goodnight from Jamie Blackstone, dreaming of the undertow that will take him to the Fathom Brides. Goodnight from Hookland.

The post box at Oak Acre has gained a reputation as one those places where you can post a letter to a dead loved one and possibly receive a reply. The GPO investigated to see if someone in from the Father Christmas letters reply team had gone rogue, but the results haven't been publicly shared.

Goodnight from Bill Horn, gluing each matchstick with ritual precision as he builds a replica of The Blood Wives stone circle. Goodnight from Andrew Dobbs, too ashamed to visit A&E as every slur he called Susie Wyles manifests as a violence of scratches across his skin. Goodnight from Hookland.

Having settled into my new digs, I finally had the opportunity to read @hookland.bsky.social 's Hookland Fragments. What David has given us in his first collection is nothing short of a wonder; a source of inspiration that will launch one hundred writing careers.

Even in death, disparities between rich and poor are rarely erased. The wealthy departed live apart in grand houses, employ a watch of lithic angels. Sometimes they retain pale servants to tend to them, running boneyard errands under a constancy of parasols. – #CLNolan

We had a nice surprise recently. A box of special Red Phone Box hardcovers was discovered. You'd think we would have one, but when we had to leave London, I accidentally packed only one copy and it was one of the mass printed ones. I'd forgotten how beautiful they are.

Illustration from Red Phone Box. Maz Fishbein and Max, the cat. Look how beautiful the layout is.

Illustration from Red Phone Box for a story originally called Hello, Dolly, but when we couldn't get permission to use the song lyrics, it was changed.
The illustration features a bunch of weird kids keeping a woman in a phone box. All illustrations by Kara Yoon Frame.

The end papers have these beautiful out of copyright historical London maps. Slip cover by Gábor Csigas.

I did think about 7e, definitely. I love the flexibility of Unknown Armies though, particularly with the 3rd Ed "identity skill" stuff ("I'm an IDENTITY, of _course_ I can X, Y, Z). Vicar, Urban Explorer, Cool-Hunter, Mall Ninja, Bigfoot Enthusiast, whatever.

There will be disappearing dolphins (@iansimmons1960.bsky.social take note); naked amnesiacs; daylight vanishings; UFO cults; black dogs; cunning folk and even a mention of Spring-heeled Jack. There might even be some free Hookland fudge.

Did I mention the time I spent a month planning and executing a Chaos Magick ritual that spectacularly -- and implausibly -- brought me the exact result I asked for in less than five minutes? It's here, if you're curious. old.reddit.com/r/Experience...

I lived in a pub when I was younger, a rural spot a short way outside the market town of Andover in (Old) Hampshire, southern England. One of the places I used to drive out to was an old, decrepit hill-side pond in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by really gnarled trees.

You tell yourself it's the ivy moving against the glass. Tell yourself old, half-abandoned buildings are full of noises you'll never fathom out. Then the voices start and you realise no writhing vegetation, no auditory pareidolia from ancient pipes offers up full sentences.

The locked attic room in Ashcourt from where science fiction writer Olag Gandle disappeared on February 15th, 1936. The disappearance remains unsolved and a matter of much speculation. It has entered the folklore of the county as faith, as ritual. #LightACandleForOlagGandle
