Anyone remember Comet Hale-Bopp in the late 90s? It is quietly in the backdrop of my latest horror novel, Bloodstains by Gaslight.

starry sky with comet. Text overlay reads: “The moon and stars were always there for her. Little lighthouses calling her home when she was lost. They grounded her, allowed a moment to catch her breath. And now, with the passing of Comet Hale-Bopp, she had another hopeful light to keep an eye out for... It was an ancient sign from the heavens that signified a new beginning, or perhaps an end of an era. ‘Everything will be okay,’ she whispered.”

I get irritated when astronomical events are sensationized with fake photos. THIS is the "smiley face" that will be in the sky on the 25th, created by the moon, Venus, & Saturn. Still cute, but it's not like the in the images being shared widely. (Screenshot from Stellarium)

In case anyone has any doubts about just how cool I was as a teen, I refer you to the bus tour I took with a group of Avon ladies in 1993, where my grandma was caught trying to shove me out a NYC window. Fortunately my hair was so big, it saved me.😎

Here's some fun from AuthorCon! Every picture is with someone awesome, and you need to buy their books yesterday. Look at these great folks, @redlagoe.bsky.social, @manylittlewords.bsky.social, @laurelhightower.bsky.social (#FuckIt), @toddkeisling.com and @ekeisling.bsky.social !

Red Lagoe and myself. Red has red hair and is wearing a white sweater with black, horizontal stripes and blue jeans. I'm wearing a shit with The Stand on the cover, as well as a hat. If you didn't get a book from her at AuthorCon, you missed out. Not only on an entertaining read, but also on a pretty fantastic art print. SNOOZE YOU LOSE, SUCKERS!

Gemma Amor and myself. She's wearing glasses and a green shirt over a black one. I'm still wearing a hat and a shirt with Stephen King's THE STAND. Not only a great author, Gemma's funny as hell and had me laughing so hard at dinner I couldn't eat. Look at me, do you think that happens often?

Myself and Laurel Hightower. Laurel is wearing a black sweatshirt and jeans. Look, I'm wearing the same thing. This was all the same day. I CHANGED MY CLOTHES EACH DAY. Laurel has a wonderful catch phrase for some, a way of living for others.

Todd Keisling, myself, and Erica Keisling. Todd's smiling like a maniac. I'm smiling like a maniac, Erica is smiling like "Get me the fuck out of here." Erica doesn't post a lot here, but you should check out her wares at mother-mischief.com.
