A photo of a large lightning bolt striking the earth.
In Norse mythology, Loki's father was the little-known jötunn Fárbauti. Some scholars feel Fárbauti's name ("Cruel Striker") evokes lightning, suggesting he was a storm giant. An intriguing idea considering Loki's complicated relationship with the thunder god Thor.

When the book I got from last year’s ALA conference book exhibit eerily predicted the “Shirley Jackson and Folk Horror” Panel and the “Teaching the American Gothic” Roundtable I’d be on at this year’s conference… #literature #americanliterature #gothic #shirleyjackson #gothicliterature #gothichorror

Hi there Blue Sky folks! I'm new here, Here's some Bach Cello Suits in the west of Ireland winter sun. Is what you're into? Would you like to hear more? I'm finding it too upsetting to open up Twitter these days...
Is your workplace giving you nightmares? These books can help give you your sanity back.
