Graveyard Walking

Having a visit with friends in Cornwall (Falmouth)—and they live across from this beautiful cemetery awash in spring flowers

Seeing a very unexpected ‘comedic’ rendition of Madame Bovary 😂

Maybe, Instagram. Maybe.

This is happening right now. Actually happening. Now.

I was unaware this book existed so when I picked it up I had no idea what I was getting into. As I was reading through, my eyes were getting a bit misty (I was crying who am I kidding), I got to the back cover and absolutely sobbed in the middle of my used bookstore.

@neil-gaiman I read through the letters you all wrote for this book, and it just made me wish even more that I had the chance to meet that wonderful man at least once. I knew I couldn't put it back on the shelf and walk away, so I brought it home and it sits on the shelf with the rest of my Terry Prachett and Neil Gaiman book collection where it belongs. 🩷

"In the funny, terrifying, colorful, oddly lovely, lovably odd Dead Boy Detectives, premiering Thursday on Netflix, deceased putative teenagers Edwin (George Rexstrew) and Charles (Jayden Revri) investigate what’s troubling troubled ghosts...."

Ooh extended version

Between Ryan Gosling Ken and Benoit Blanc I'm starting to think that it's some sort of animal abuse to keep casting big name actors in stoic macho manly man rolls instead of giving them goofy little guys to play. Like look at them their coats are shiny, they seem so much more lively and energetic. We need to make sure all actors have enough goofy little guys to play before peta gets involved.

Hanging with Stephen Gallagher

Stephen Gallagher has written novels (LOVE Kingdom of Bones, Chimera, Rain) and television scripts (for Doctor Who — for Rosemary & Thyme, Eleventh Hour, BBC series Murder Rooms, etc.) I’ve known Steve for ages, and in addition to being a brilliant writer, he’s an extremely generous person with a keen wit and wonderful sense of humor. He also makes a good guide round Leeds, where we spent today. Tried to stop at the Book Barge (going to pick up a book by @neil-gaiman to pose with) but it was closed. Sorry Neil! Also went to the art gallery … and discovered we have similar taste in pens.

Hello, London. Nice to see you again.

FOUNTAIN PENS!

Found a jewelry box at antique store… perfect for my pens and inks. Not all of which are pictured. Obviously.

Y’all, I get to swan about Leeds with Stephen Gallagher on Tuesday aiming at fun haunts, bookshops, and foodstuffs.
