An illustration done mostly with digital colored pencils. Ok, so we have a wooden coffin in the classic top-heavy hexagon shape. The coffin is propped up at an angle on nothing against a background of gray-blue paint splatters as a spooky sheet ghost rises out of it. Although it’s not a real sheet as it’s translucent and there’s nothing inside of it except a gape-mouthed green skull in the approximate head position within the sheet. The ghost is wearing a big. floppy, black witch’s hat and there’s a little brown bat hanging down from the wide brim. The ghost’s arms are extended holding a jack o’ lantern with a one-toothed frowny face carved into it. Popping out of the jack o’ lantern is a a black cat with green eyes balancing the cap of the pumpkin on his head. And on the stem of the pumpkin cap is a very serious-looking brown speckled owl. A series of spooky speech balloons is chained together around all this , each balloon containing one word and associating back tot he spooks and creatures named in the reverse order listed. The lettering in the balloons is red and drippy and reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

True not just in publishing/writing. Look at how this new Meta Muse basically jumps into the user's shit, mixes it around, gets it everywhere. Shares their address. Lies to their contacts. Sells their stuff at a low price. Do not let the vampire in. Hang garlic. Sharpen stakes.

Vivid numbers in this overview of Illinois’s new Net Zero carbon plan: “improvements in air quality alone would lead to between 392 & 631 fewer premature deaths per year. That translates to between $8.8 and $13.8 billion in avoided healthcare costs & increased worker productivity.” #ShareGoodNewsToo

Buying books wherever you can is great, of course, but one thing we’ve noticed is a growing number of people (who are able to make a choice) choosing indie bookstores or sites like bookshop.org that benefit indie stores rather than giant mega corporations. Our hearts are swole, seeing that.
bookshop.org
Bookshop.org: Buy books online. Support local bookstores.
A better way to buy books online. Every purchase financially supports local independent bookstores.

We want to thank every single reader who’s picked up one of our titles: THANK YOU! For supporting a small Canadian Antifascist press that doesn’t use AI in any part of the publishing process, for supporting our authors and leaving reviews, and for spreading the word! Stories change the world.

"No war but class war; also, harpies! Delightful, unique, and frequently hilarious."
—Naomi Kritzer, author of Catfishing on CatNet
After a two year stint as a harpy leaves Jules with a shaky reputation, she tries to live a discreet life as a curse breaker, carefully maintaining her ties to her aristocratic mother and a wild clamor of harpies.
When her balance is disrupted, she must find the strength to confront her past and finally merge her two worlds.
