[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality

BlueSky posts by Karin West-Weekes and Patrick Weekes announcing their layoffs from BioWare. Both are now looking for work.

I'll echo Mike here and highly recommend both Karin and Patrick to anyone looking for a fantastic and highly-experienced editor or writer, respectively.

And, just once, I'd like to see a studio announce these kinds of layoffs without making it sound like a cheery plus for the company.

Eyooooo transferring to this from instagram is weird and makes me feel old

Here’s a recent sketchbook page I scanned in the other day

There Is No Safe Word How the best-selling fantasy author Neil Gaiman hid the darkest parts of himself for decades.

I wrote about Neil Gaiman, and the women accusing him of sexual coercion, assault and abuse. www.vulture.com/article/neil...

Aw am so glad you relate too! There’s so much I want to do aaa

Last year I had a slight creative crisis so I decided to express that panic in petty yet playful ways with silly ink drawings... I am now embracing a multi-disciplinary practice :^) #art #illustration

Love!!!

I saw “home beans on a jacket” on a lunch menu and imagined little baby beans being tucked in. 🫘

I used indian ink, pro markers (windsor & newton), pentel brush pen on Snowdon drawing paper.

The Root is Nervous YouTube video by Alice Banfield

Ursula K. Le Guin presents the forest as a sentient being in "The Word For World Is Forest” and “Vaster Than Empires And More Slow”. I manifest my own experiences of being autistic in a forest-like setting.
