WERECONIFER is the sequel to WERECOCKROACH. Some months after the first book, Rin and their friends are asked to help find a missing shapeshifting tree. Generally gentle with a queer found family and also aliens. #AroAce #QueerBookSky More information: www.polenthblake.com/words/weretr...

The cover of WERECONIFER by Polenth Blake is at an angle on a brown background. The cover has hand drawn letters and a Scots pine tree with multicoloured round decorations (lights) drawn with felt tip pens. Captions surround the cover in a childish messy font with arrows pointing at things.

Captions pointing at the tree: pine needles, festive lights, tree.

Captions for the book: aliens wearing socks, book two, queerplatonic, also cockroaches, bonus cats, this is a sequel, i drew this, rainy winter, multiple aspec characters.

Just found out that the owner of Neocities is pro-AI 🤬💀 I need to move house in a virtual sense, then. ("When they catch you, they will kill you; but first, they must catch you.") I'm already behind on everything because of the ol' chronic health, but Nekoweb seems like a simple enough move.

Raqefet Cave in Israel was a sacred burial site for the hunter-gatherer culture known as the 'Natufians' around 13,000 years ago. More recently, we've also discovered here the earliest evidence of BEER BREWING from grains. Even more remarkable because these people HADN'T INVENTED AGRICULTURE YET.

I don't remember much about James Cameron's 2009 "Avatar" movie. The main character was... Jack? But I remember the Hallelujah Mountains, floating islands of rock wreathed in fog. Here's the park that inspired them: Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Hunan Province, China. Let's talk about it.

Occasionally, enough volunteer flowers show up in the backyard for me to make a little arrangement. Kinda fun, nice to look at.

A small arrangement of rudbeckia (black eyed susans) and blue lobelia flowers. Their yellow and purple petals contrast vibrantly with the green leaves and stems. They're standing in a water-filled glass jar, which has been upcycled with light blue tissue paper and butterfly stickers.

'You have to practice finishing things' was such a shift in my approach to learning art. If you're constantly starting over, you get skilled at starting things and everything else atrophies. You train yourself to never be satisfied. I know never being satisfied is a huge stereotype of artists...
