New Books Today

Gotta lotta these to add to my collection, a classic of railway literature and a goldmine of anecdotes and stories of Aus railway lore:

Now I’m just imagining Harry grumbling about how ‘(I) should be on the front cover of ‘Romance of Australian Railways’ in a Fabio-esque pose, not that bloody diesel and that bloody Hudson!’

The ‘Melbourne Steam Festival’ celebrates 3801 and 3820’s full length run on Victoria’s Standard Gauge metals during the Easter of 1973 as the first steam engines to run on that track. It also marks them meeting up with Victoria’s own R707, D3 639 and K184… so some fuel for story ideas there…

Bonus train with face from ‘Romance Of Australian Railways’:

WIP Reintro: Red and Riotous Light

Status: seven morbillionth draft

Genre: historical fiction, gothic horror

Content warnings: gore, death, cannibalism, place & time typical bigotry, &c

The year is 1796 and the island of Ireland, once considered peaceable, is awash with sedition. In Belfast, the arrival of a mysterious Englishwoman whose defection to the French makes her a target of both curiosity and suspicion brings with her tidings of a prospective deal between a local United Irish cell and the French government: guns, and ammunition, sold at a premium price, delivered by a French ship. The only problem? The ship is arriving at the opposite side of the country, and these would-be insurgents need it where they are -- and the French said nothing about transport. Additionally, the committee seems to have had a suspicious number of brushes with authority lately. More than they used to. Hopefully someone isn't getting cold feet...

Meanwhile, in the isolated townland of Áth Síomóin, the arrival of a hapless new schoolmaster sparks the powder-keg the two sides of the area's sectarian divide have long been sitting on and leads, inadvertently, to the death of a Catholic of some consequence -- and, crucially, does not lead to the punishment of his killer. The resulting crackdown on Defender activity, facilitated by the arrival of another English visitor, is to be expected at first. However, as the situation deteriorates, it becomes clear that local agrarian resistance leaders have neither intent nor indeed means to capitulate, and all sides begin to adopt increasingly extreme measures in an attempt to win the seemingly endless feud. And there's also something off about some of the local children -- hearing voices, saying funny things. It can't be good for them, after all. All this bloodshed.

Ask to be +/- from the taglist + main characters under the cut

William Hughes Rearden - an extremely driven and neurotic member of the Belfast United Irishmen hellbent on getting French arms for his men. he/him

Lady Maria Whittaker - an English reformer who defected to the French; Rearden's close friend. Her mission is to arm the UI and she doesn't care what she has to do to accomplish it. she/her; first name pronounced "mariah"

Seamus "Seamy" Breen - a small, unhappy Irish Catholic boy who, after he witnesses the death of a schoolmate, develops the ability to speak to the dead. he/him; nickname pronounced "shaymie"

Eoin O'Donnell - a womanising Defender leader in Áth Síomóin who has decided that he will also be taking and using some of these French arms, actually. he/him; first name pronounced "owen"

Sarah Connolly - a nihilistic Catholic peasant woman trapped in an unhappy relationship with an abusive boyfriend, who knows much more than she lets on. she/her

Edward "Lazarus" McClure - the loyalist owner of a rural inn who has lately betrayed his principles for a Catholic boyfriend who he seems disturbingly devoted to. he/him

Elizabeth "Eliza" Durham - the heiress to the fortune of an Anglo-Irish landowning family who runs her family's estate like it's the navy and suffers little dissent. she/her

Anthony Franklin - an actor, committed abolitionist, philosophy enthusiast, and London Corresponding Society delegate originally from the West Indies. he/him

Charles Nathaniel Maurice Irving-Hamilton, Lord Drenning - a foppish English soldier brought over by Eliza to help quell agrarian disturbances. Really really bad at his job. he/him

Eleanor "Ellie" Gage - a waif of uncertain background who lives with the Presbyterian minister in a neighbouring townland and works unofficially for the local regiment. she/her

[mythologymatrix]

So you want to read… Medieval Irish

Brave choice.

Where do I start?

First things first: CELT is your friend! A lot of Old Irish sources are a little harder to get hold of and often a little more expensive than a lot of more popular or widely attributed mythologies, and online sources are rife with information based on Victorian interpretations rather than original sources. The Corpus of Electronic Texts is a rich well of original sources translated into English. I would definitely recommend starting with the Táin, which is the best-known of the early sagas. If you want to start out with something original, but a little more modern or shorter, I’m a fan of The Life of Brigit.

If those are a little dense, or you just prefer audio, The Brehon Academy has a lot of excellent stories from early Irish literature uploaded on their Youtube channel. Ireland’s Myths and Legends is a great source for browsing. Discovering Ireland also has some excellent introductory stories up on their website.

Translations, Editions, and other Originals

If you can afford to buy for a more modern edition, the Táin remains a great start. Kinsella’s translation is excellent, as is Carson’s.

J. Gantz’s collection, Early Irish Myths and Sagas, is an excellent branching off point into wider early Irish literature, and would be well followed by Murphy’s Early Irish Lyrics. I would also recommend Ann Dooley’s Tales of the Elders of Ireland, although it can be a little dense to read.

There are also some terrific retellings by Finn Longman on Youtube, along with a lot of assorted background and discussion on Irish mythology and literature.

Theory and Analysis

For some general background, Bhreathnach’s Ireland in the Medieval World AD 400–1000 is an excellent resource; as is Ó Cróinín’s Early Medieval Ireland 400–1200. You can get some excellent archaeology background from Edwards’ The Archaeology of Early Medieval Ireland. For an analytical look at Irish mythology, I would recommend Ireland’s Immortals by Mark Williams.

If you do want to take a crack at learning the language, you can get a decent start using Quin’s Old Irish Workbook and Strachan and Bergin’s Old Irish Paradigms and Glosses. Scéla mucce Meic Dathó is a good beginners text.

Modern Interpretations

As mentioned above, there are several great Youtubers and bloggers in the Old Irish arena. In addition to those linked above, I would recommend @trans-cuchulainn and @donn-nimhe.

Irish-inspired fantasy is in something of a boom at the moment. My first introduction to the subject was Kate Thompson’s The New Policeman and its sequels, which I hugely recommend. Morgan Llewellyn’s Red Branch is an old-school but very fun fantasy with historic roots. The Folk Keeper by Franny Billingsley is a wonderfully atmospheric story which blends Irish and Scottish traditions of selkies. I would also recommend Kenneth C. Flint’s Sidhe series.

A more grounded, modern series with strong Irish mythology influences can be found in the form of Elly Griffiths Ruth Galloway Novels. Irish lore is pretty popular in detective fiction, since it’s also displayed in the Merry Gentry series by Laurell K. Hamilton.

Cartoon Saloon is well-known for its beautiful films rooted in Irish myth and art, starting with the historically-rich The Secret of Kells. Live-action fans should try out the likewise gentle and atmospheric The Secret of Roan Inish.

For some quirkier choices, High Moon is a fun series of modern werewolf comics with a lot of Irish mythology inspiration behind them. I haven’t tried either of these video games, but they have pretty good reviews from Irish mythology lovers and video game fans alike. This Welsh-language rock opera adapts Irish sagas into some pretty great music.

The Unimaginable: 1/1

Finally! This is to celebrate hitting two thousand followers on here!

It is based on a combination of 2 of the prompts I received which I’ve copied below.

The title is taken from 'It's Quiet Uptown' from Hamilton which makes me cry basically every time I hear it.

Trigger warnings: Miscarriage.

Anonymous said: Prompt for Bechloe: They just had their 3rd miscarriage, all 3 being Beca since Chloe is found infertile. 2 days later they find themselves at thanksgiving dinner at the Beale's (down the street so it is not to far), the day they were going to announce. Beca is still recovering (maybe they had to deliver the baby so she's got c-section stuff) but they're really tense all day, Chloe wordlessly being physically there for Beca, but one of them breaks down before the end of the day(family knows)

Anonymous said: Okay how about Beca collapsing+Chloe saying “no, c’mon open your eyes. Stay with me.”

----

“Mommy!”

The sound of breaking glass and a thud, followed by Ellie’s panicked voice cut through the house and sent Chloe dashing into the kitchen where Beca and their five-year-old daughter were currently preparing dinner.

Except now Beca wasn’t preparing dinner.

She was on the ground, face ghostly pale, blinking in confusion.

There was some broken glass on the floor, and blood was slowly seeping through Beca’s grey sweatpants.

God.

Not again.

love/hate songs

Since 8tracks is messed up and playmoss is gonna disappear and Spotify doesn't have many songs, I’m posting some of my playlists here. This is a list of songs about love/hate relationships for pairings. Enemies to lovers, tsundere personalities, hero/villain couplings, opposites attract, loving someone you know you shouldn't. This list is several years old so the songs are older and kinda ‘scene.’

Major trigger warnings for the lyrics of these songs. Some songs have violent lyrics. This playlist romanticizes conflict.
