S2: In the Pines – Episode 14: On Death Island
Give a group of boys from anywhere a backyard, a stretch of woods, hell, a vacant lot even — and you can watch it rise to a place of hallowed glory. A patch of trees in between houses becomes an ancient battlefield where two sides of some long-remembered, or forgotten, conflict plays out again and...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 18: Rest / Heal / Balance
Balance is always important. All work and no play is good for no one. See also: Sunday Funday!
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 17: Familiar / Beast
This is Merlin, my beloved familiar cat. He’s been with me a little over five years. Just a couple weeks before Halloween of 2015, I got up early and took my dog Loki to the park for a short hike. While we were crossing the bridge over the creek that runs through the park toward the lake, I notice...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 16: Surreal
This day. This day has been surreal, to me. I planned on getting a tattoo (early, actually; my original appointment was on the 29th but my guy had a cancellation). I did that, and yes, it was just as painful as you're guessing.Mid-tattoo, I get a call letting me know the car I'd requested tr...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 14: Upcycle
So today’s prompt is “upcycle”... and I got nothing, y’all. That sort of thing is just... not my skill. Feel free to comment with your suggestions, though! Teach me something new. In the meantime, here’s a link with some ideas.

#AnotherWorldOctober Day 13: Craggy / Coil
Here's my little coil, my long boi, Logan. He's a pastel enchi ball python, and very friendly. He loves to coil around your wrists and hands.
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 12: Change / Another World
Today’s theme is change, which got me thinking about the changing leaves of autumn, and about death, specifically about the Death card in Tarot, which sometimes spooks folks, but usually represents change. It’s the death of something, for sure, but typically not of the querent. And of course, th...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 11: Bibliomancy / Reading list
Every October I re-read Dracula. It's one of my favorites. Unfortunately, I haven't dragged my battered old copy out of storage yet this month, so I can't show you a photo, but I assure you it is much loved.What are your favorite Halloween reads, Family?(And yes, I'm a day behind aga...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 10: Hidden talent / Something others may not know about you
This was it. Writing. Not much left to hide anymore. 🤷🏼♀️
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 9: Sounds / Sing / Whisper / Scream
We are often asked about the music we listen to when we're writing. King Dude is one of my favorite artists, and I listen to his music a lot when I'm writing OGoA. And this is the song that inspired Cletus' storyline in season one.

Just some tools of the trade. Nothing actually going on here, just arranged for a glamour shot.
#AnotherWorldAppalachia Day 5: Words / Poetry / Message
A poem I wrote a couple years ago, whose title is in keeping with the season. –Cama hauntingOur house is not so much hauntedas haunting:the ghost of our home looming behind me,settled heavy on my shoulders,not a presence but an absence,a lack like a missing limb.I moved into the other room,put awa...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 4: Door / Dwelling / Portal
Evening, Family. This one comes a bit late and is just a little snippet of something I've been working on that fits today's theme.- CamThere was a door in the cellar of Merrilee Cook’s mamaw’s house that none of the cousins — or, so far as Merrilee knew, even any of their parents — w...
#AnotherWorldOctober Day 3: Favorite Films of the Season
I'm taking a slightly different approach to this question. Over on the Fellowship Hall, I had posted a poll asking for input on the best movies to watch this year for #31NightsofHalloween. I've combined input from that list, as well as my own personal preferences, to offer you instead my pla...

S2: In the Pines – Episode 12: The Other Queen
These yarns were spun to teach you to stay safe and mind common sense and most importantly your mama. The stories that get lost though — the ones hardly nobody ever lived to tell — were often just blunt and simple warnings: There is darkness here: fear it. Trust those who can see through it and ...
