That night as I walked in my slumber, I waded into the sea-strand

My poem "The Coast Guard" is now in print, or pixel, in Sirenia Digest #41. It has nothing to do with Lovecraft, although it derives from a trip to Cape Cod with fleurdelis28 in November, part of our continuing exploration of old New England. It can be found, however, between two excellently Lovecraftian stories by greygirlbeast, a voyeur's glimpse through sacred and terrible dreamlands and a haunting pulled from the sea. Read. Subscribe. Fall in. Don't blame me if you come out differently afterward. Or have trouble thinking about unicorns.

God bless "Midnight Feast" and all the poems it inspired.

I wonder if erzebet would be interested in publishing a miniature book of them . . .

(Amen!)

I wonder if she could get permission (or would she need it?) to include "Midnight Feast" as well.

I think she would need permission—Lal Waterson is no longer alive, but James Yorkston certainly is; and the rest of Lal's family. But we could still do a collection of the poems.

I would love that. Does she make multiples, or are they one offs? How much--I know this is indelicate to ask, but--do they cost? I **love** what I've seen that she's done.

They're limited editions, I think, but let me find out if she's even interested in the project first!

Conchs. They make delicious soup.

Conchs. They make delicious soup.

I'm not sure I've ever had them in soup, but I could well believe it would be delicious.

I've got fond memories of eating conch fritters in the Keys as a child.

Does anyone eat whelks?
