Lovecraft rolling in his grave! Nah, who am I kidding? He’d love knowing that people were referencing him, almost a century after his death.

Patreon Microfiction: Daywalkers.
I don’t know what the ‘daywalkers’ need the stuff for, honestly. Probably a dietary aid. You don’t see very many fat vampires, right*?
*The only one that I can think of off the top of my hat is that one dude from Blade. …And now I gotta watch the opening to that movie again.
Book of the Week: An Unexpected Cookbook.
An Unexpected Cookbook: The Unofficial Book of Hobbit Cookery was one of the things I got for Christmas. It’s actually very informative! I hadn’t twigged to the fact that Tolkien avoided most New World foods when writing about the Shire*. So, no chocolate, vanilla, tomatoes: the writer worked with a lot of traditional British cooking, the kind JRR Tolkien would have grown up eating. The book also looks useful if you’re interested in working with leftovers. Definitely worth a look, I think.
Moe Lane
*Except for potatoes, because he couldn’t help himself. He also made exceptions for tobacco, and coffee (although obviously that last isn’t from the Americas originally).
Rewrite, GHOST OF THE DEVIL-HORSE, 12/26/2020.
I’ve decided that the story needed serious and drastic reordering, so I’m going to be spending the next week doing just that. Well, that and rewrites, and actually finishing it, and so forth.
Snippet the Last, TIMMY AND THE CHRISTMAS ELF.
The rest of it is going on Patreon this evening, because it occurred to me to get it up before Christmas.
