Ooh. That looks intriguing.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Art Crawl!!!
Thomas Canty has donated a drawing he did for the illustrated special edition of A Feast for Crows to the Terri Windling fundraiser. (Not surprising - I believe he did the covers for the Fairy Tale series and for various anthologies that Terri Windling edited.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I don't need Margaret Atwood, but I definitely need Frances Hodgson Burnett, GK Chesterton and Carson McCullers, and I wouldn't say no to Charlotte Bronte or Edith Wharton either.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think you just created your fantasy dinner party.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Chesterton for sure, and possibly McCullers, but I'd want to add in Flannery O'Connor and swap out Burnett for E. Nesbit. A dinner party guest list is a delicate thing.
And if the etsy seller wanted to take a cue from my dinner party and start making O'Connor and Nesbit dolls, I would be ALL in favor of it.

Jilli, have you seen this altered book purse?
Aaaiiieeeee, no I hadn't! Dammit, all these amazing altered book purses, and no spending money. Grr.
(I have a copy of that anthology sitting in the vampire bookcase. It's got a lot of good stories in it.)
