I will never not shout out @emcheeseman.bsky.social for this beautiful graphic novel of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Every year, this is my high schoolers first intro to Gawain. You did your big one with keeping this accessible and free. Thank you.

Travel is a good way to expand your mind.
It's also a good way to find portals to other worlds hidden behind bookshelves, and collectible goblin bones in the old forest.
I have a story in this magazine. It's dark and empowering and pensive and witchy...and I really appreciate Trollbreath for giving it a home.
Read "The Frayed Edges of Souls" by melee in Trollbreath #7.
Quote graphic from Issue 2 of Will This Be A Problem? The Magazine is set on a background that has a textured orange tone with decorative speech mark elements. The text reads: I walked to the living room and stared at Davey. He was pressed against the TV screen, his small, pudgy body barely reaching the middle of the giant viewer. Bop Bop wasn’t dancing anymore. Instead, it looked like the bear was crouched down, whispering to Davey through the TV from the live studio where he was recorded. The bear’s mouth stopped moving when I walked in, and they both looked at me. Attribution below: Do The Bop Bop Azure Arther Will This Be A Problem?

Just a little light reading for the weekend. Doing all graphic novels for the next week or so. Because yes.

Bruh. The skill, the storytelling...I was trapped, hooked, and enthralled. Damn this was good.
But @catvalente.bsky.social I need Jolene's story something terrible. I'll be thinking about her for a long time coming.
