Surrealistic illustration done in ink, partially colored with colored pencils. The layers show the cycle of the moon, a polished tree trunk, a crumbling labyrinth seen from above, a person navigating a fantastic forest.

Surrealistic illustration done in black ink, partially colored with color pencils. The layers show narrow steps leading up, an attic with stacked suitcases and boxes, a person working with memories and a candle.

Surrealistic illustration done in black ink, partially colored with pencils. Images that overlap are a clearing in the woods where the moon reflects in a pond, a girl playing with ravens, flames licking, and a woman rapped in a closk searching the night with a lantern.

Surrealistic illustration done in black ink and partially colored with colored pencils. You step into the woods as a full moon is illuminating the scene. A feeling of fear has you in its grip until you shake it to fulfil your full potential. Ghosts become sources of information. You can change your perspective.

Deb, your timing, as always, is perfect! Congratulations on #TFATR! I’ve been rereading #TBBO & rewatching (for the umteenth time), the TV serie, as pure escapism from the world turned upside down! Looking forward to all good things for the new book (I hope that means another book tour too 🙏🏾)!
Copy of the Malleus Maleficarum opened to the title page in a glass enclosure. Reflected on the glass is a reflection of a burning pentagram.
Image of a chair scale. Accused witches sat in the chair and 2 bibles are placed in the balance.

Spent the morning checking out the Witches: Out of the Shadows exhibition at Pointe-à-Callière in #Montreal. Pretty neat.
Pleased to see #TBBO by @debharkness.bsky.social prominently displayed in the boutique, too!
