Selene di Silva was once Artemis – like many members of her family, when belief waned, she found a new home far from Greece, and she now lives in New York City. The family is barely immortal now, though some gain smaller amounts of power from the pieces of themselves that mortals still worship. Selene […]

Pattern: Monteagle Bag by Ann Hahn BuechnerYarn: Quince and Co Willet in the Regatta Colorway (and just a touch of Cascade Ultra Pima in Juniper)Needles: Size 11 Circ and one DPN So I’ve been trying to cut down on my plastic use where I can nip it in the bud from the get go.

Irene is a Librarian, but for a very specialized Library – one that exists outside of a multitude of alternate worlds, and has tasked itself with collecting books important to all the alternates. It’s a varied job – you may be able to purchase said book, or it may involve some degree of sleight of

Pattern: Darryl with a “Y” by Pixie HarfordYarn: Malabrigo Sock in the Playa colorwayNeedles: Size 2.5 DPNs I like this pattern – it’s a nice simple knit, and gave me exactly what the BF had asked for – an additional layer for his hands when snow blowing. I really love how this yarn ended up
This is a book of essays written for the 350th anniversary of the founding of the Royal Society (back in 2010 – there are some political leaning statements in certain areas that are depressingly dated). There is a real mix of topics – some are very science oriented, some more concerned with the history of
