The houses close their doors and dream of her

My poem "Heyiya," written for my best cousin [livejournal.com profile] gaudior, has been accepted by Strange Horizons. She's that awesome.

Today and yesterday and the day before, the air has been bright and cool, the sun starting to slant over at the end of summer: not quite a foretaste of autumn. The ghosts are coming up out of the ground.

yaay! Yes, it is autumn that's in the air. Apples are ripening.

What is your entry's subject line from?
chomiji: Miyazaki's Totoro, joyfully gathering falling acorns (Totoro - acorns)

Hmmm, yes, it's lovely, although I don't like autumn much - spring is my season. But even so, to quote a different Le Guin, "Praise the Creation unfinished!"

I think I need an autumnal manga icon ... there are some lovely autumn-themed color "extras" from several of my favorite mangaka.

Congratulations!

The ghosts are coming up out of the ground.
Ghosts? ...or Growth! (ominous fanfare).

It's cooling here as well of late.
