Digital illustration in a comic inking style of the head of a walrus. He has big tusks, but instead of the normal walrus whiskers he has a luxuriant handlebar mustache with a nice curl on the end. A pair of pince nez glasses sit on his nose and he’s puffing on a large pipe which is popping out soap bubbles. A thought balloon over his head contains the words, ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

The Cat Righting Reflex was first captured on camera by French scientist Étienne-Jules Marey in 1894. We do not know the name of the cat, or what it did to Marey afterwards.

This beautiful object is a fragment from the base of a 13th-century Syrian bowl. It is decorated with a hare in an ‘arrested’ stance, that is with one of their front paws raised, and their head turned to the rear.

Digital illustration. On top of a grassy hill are a stack of dimensionally-rendered letters reading ‘Maybe it’ll happen today’. A bunny and a squirrel and a bird and a butterfly are nearby. A little mouse is poking its head out of the’O’ in ‘Today’. There are flowers and colorful mushrooms in the grass. A friendly orange sun in a blue sky with one puffy cloud is the background.

This must be the third video of wonderful voices singing global scales I have seen, and each is mesmerising and has taught me things I didn't know. Such as: That these scales exist and how they, the bare backbone of tunes, reflect and unlock whole world regions' music. This is amazing.

A digital illustration of a feathered serpent. It is coiling back on itself several times across the frame until you get to the head on the right which looks something like a really mean bird of prey with a jagged beak and sticking out a long three-pronged tongue. It has a large mane of feathers that blends into the feathers that are covering the rest of its body and everything is colored in basically a rainbow gradient. There is one raptor-y claw and talons on the body just below the head and attached to the top curve of the coil behind the head is one wing. Again all colorful like. A pink and purple banner is sort of threaded through the coils toad the back and on it is lettering that reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Colourful Roman glass cups decorated with animals from the Roman arena. Made in the AD 200s in Roman glass workshops in the Rhineland, they were found in ‘princely’ graves in Denmark, giving us a glimpse of how far Roman luxury goods travelled. National Museum of Denmark 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo collage shows four images of Roman short clear-glass cups painted with colourful enamel decoration depicting animals from the Roman Arena. Known as 'circus beakers', fourteen have been found in richly-furnished 'princely' graves in Denmark. The cups are dated AD 200s and were made in Roman glass workshops on the Rhine.

The top two images show two sides of the same cup

Top left: cup painted with a honey-coloured brown lion with shaggy mane viewed in profile facing right, its front and rear legs outstretched as if running at full speed

Top right: a bright green leopard with black spots viewed in profile facing left. It has a long curling tail. It’s front and rear legs are outstretched as if running. Out of shot, there is a blue goat which is being hunted down by the lion and the leopard

Bottom left: a fragmentary glass cup decorated with a light-brown lion with shaggy mane with black nose and a pink tongue

Bottom right: a standing gladiator with knee-length green leggings, cropped tunic top, and holding a blue shield, faces right towards a large brown bear seen in profile, The bear also faces right, as if moving away from the gladiator

I talk to new writers about this this kind of "feedback" a lot. I've had folks point out many things they feel are harmful or bad tropes or contributing to erasure/stereotypes in my books. What I have to ask myself is: is this still true to the vision/xp *I* have for the book?

A digital illustration roughly drawn in dark heavy pencil lines and colored haphazardly with textured pencil. Depicts a white English bulldog with brown markings wearing a bulky knit sweater in magenta and lime green stripes. The dog is in a full sprint (as much as a bulldog can) with a string of sausages trailing from its mouth. Words written on the sausages spell out ‘Maybe it will happen today’.
