I'm making one last push to let people know about this online talk -- sponsored by the British Library in conjunction with their current exhibition on fairy tales. The live stream starts at 7:30 tonight, but if you buy a ticket *before* the event you can watch it any time over the next 7 days.
48 HOURS till the end of our fundraiser at locusmag.com/igg26 and we're only halfway to our funding goals.... Please take a moment to support what we do if you have the means! Thank you so much!
Fundraiser closes Tuesday 4/14!
If you like Dr Dean Burnett's work and output, you can support him and it and simultaneously enrich yourself, by buying one of his many excellent books, which offer fun and accessible insights into the fascinating complexities of our grey matter and what it does

The British cover for Enchanting the Fae Queen, by Stephanie Burgis, shows a green background with a frame of climbing roses and branches rising through a night sky full of stars. In the center of the image, just beneath the moon, stands a massive, ominous castle with a hedge maze before it. A blonde woman in a long gown scattters sparkles in her wake as she leads her tall. uniformed male companion through the moonlit hedge maze at a run, while giant butterflies flutter overhead. The tag line reads: “All’s fae in love and war” and a blurb from Sarah Beth Durst reads: “Full of charm, wit and magic.” Around and beneath the cover image is this text, connected by arrows to different parts of the cover image: She's a scandalous seductress; he's famously moral, virtuous and chaste; “Yes, I may kill him, but I’ll kill anyone else who tries”; Enemies to lovers; only 99p this April.
If you're in the UK (or many parts of mainland Europe!), you can snap up the Enchanting the Fae Queen ebook right now for just 99p:
