And hark to the wind playing in the reeds!

My poem "Idle Thoughts While Watching a Faun," after elisem's earrings of the same name, has been accepted by Strange Horizons.

I think Mervyn Peake totally gave Dr. Prunesquallor his hair.

Congratulations!

Thank you!

(Apologies for changing the post on you; I had meant to post the Peake link last night, but I fell asleep first.)

Yay!

Also, yeah, he really did, didn't he?

That's okay--I was amused to go back to it and see the photo :-)

It may be just the tonal values in this picture, but thinking of Mervyn Peake as looking curiously reminiscent of Phil Lynott is disorienting.

Somehow this knowledge makes me very happy.

I love that he's drawing her, and for all I know she's writing him.

. . . I had to look up Phil Lynott. That tells you something about the tonal values of my brain.

You're right. He does, and it is.

Apologies. My father knew Lynott vaguely, and something in the back of my brain has persistently misfiled him as "about as well known as Freddie Mercury" despite every attempt to correct it. (Knowledge of their joint "Queen Lizzy Tour" does not help.)
