WELL my friends, we are now a full month into full coronavirus pandemic mode, and I hope that you are all hanging in there. Have we all sort of recognized that we’re going to be inside until the end of May? That’s how I’m reading the situation, but please weigh in if you feel differently. I know officially the end of April is when this stops, but like. Will it? No. Probably not. I am having my toddler godson over to my house later today to PARTY PARTY PARTY, and our agenda includes playing on my main bed, which goes…

Hello, quarantined listeners! It’s us, the quarantined podcasters! We apologize for the audio of this episode, which is not of the high quality to which you have become accustomed. This is because one of us didn’t have a good-quality mic (we are procuring one!) and one of us did have a good quality mic but failed to use it when recording in Zencastr because we, and by we I mean I, Gin Jenny, are gently losing our wits. You can listen to the podcast in the embedded player below, or download it directly to take with you on the go! Episode…
Leave a CommentSince the death of the Maha, the Ambha Empire has been breaking down. The Emperor is near death, and his sons are preparing to fight to inherit his throne. Arwa is the only survivor of a fearsome supernatural massacre that killed her husband and everyone else at Darez Fort, and she has come to make her life at the widows’ refuge in Numriha. But once she’s there, she realizes that her Amrithi blood — inheritance from the biological mother she never knew; evidence that she is not the good Ambhan noblewoman she has always claimed to be — could help…
Leave a CommentWell! Well! Well, I just simply do not know what to say about *waves hands* all this, except that we are at the end of a second week of Definitely Crisis Mode, and everyone but me seems to be making bread. An admirable goal! Drop into the comments and let me know what else you’re doing to get by. My two main things are listening to “Back to Before,” a Broadway standard from a musical I don’t know, watching The Repair Shop on Netflix, and coloring in my coloring app, which is called Happy Color (it’s worth investing in the…
Leave a CommentEmpress of Salt and Fortune slaps. I review books and I am very professional and Empress of Salt and Fortune fucking slaps. I could honestly end this post here. You would believe me, right? You would just read The Empress of Salt and Fortune based on that! Plus this gorgeous cover! Chih, a cleric from the Singing Hills abbey, has come with their ?familiar? to Thriving Fortune, where they meet an elderly woman with stories to tell about the Empress of Salt and Fortune, who once lived in exile in Thriving Fortune. The elderly woman, Rabbit, offers Chih and their…
Leave a CommentDo you think Friday the 13th still counts when there’s a global pandemic on? Or do you think we all get a bye on Friday the 13th bad luck because we’re having such terrible luck already? Either way, the important thing is that we all have enough Tylenol and reading material, so pop into the comments and let me know what you’re reading and how it’s treating you. I myself am reading Realm of Ash, by Tasha Suri, and it’s treating me real real good. And now, on to the links! Tumblr’s not dead — no! It is aliiiiiiiive! China…
Leave a CommentOrdinarily I’m all in favor of Leap Year, because it’s cool to just have an extra day. But honestly, do we want an extra day anymore? Don’t we have enough days? Don’t the days keep coming at us like rats to a granary, like field mice when there’s harvest home? Let’s just get through this Leap Year, and before you know it, we will be past it and the year will resume having the normal number of days. And we will MAKE IT THROUGH. Here are some links to help us reach that time. There is a new little Book…
Leave a CommentAva has organized her work schedule at Not!IKEA to avoid any contact with her ex, Jules, and she is therefore deeply resentful of being called in to sub on a day she was supposed to have off. Of course, she’s sharing a shift with Jules, and it’s awkward as fuck. To make matters worse, a customer’s grandmother goes missing in the depths of the store, and it becomes pretty obvious that she’s disappeared into a wormhole. As the two newest employees, Ava and Jules are tapped to go chasing through the multiverse together to find the missing woman. My favorite…
