Waldo Butters with fidelacchius Magnetic Bookmarks!

Figured I should post these before they get lost, as I've got a few more new friends arriving at the shop this week.

Butters is available in mega (3") and mini (2.25") sizes, and he's joining the two versions of Harry Dresden we've got available already.

I've got one more Dresden Files-related surprise for the upcoming holiday season... but I need to figure out how to photograph the thing first. 😂 It's NOT a bookmark.

Stay tuned. 😉

"I have mixed feelings abt Death Note" Tell me more, tell me more

Oh, Nonnie, I am going to disappoint you so hard. They're mixed feelings, not mixed thoughts, really.

I was an emo otaku teenager right when Death Note was hitting ground in the US. I've never actually seen the anime, but I own every single volume of the manga, the BB Murder Files. I had two Death Note shirts at one point, but only have one now (Goodwill). I have some old art of me drawing L's stylized monogram and doing my best to replicate the logo for the series.

In fact, my high school didn't give us our yearbooks until the next year, at which point they were obviously not signed, etc., so a couple friends one year bought those Death Note composition notebooks that were available at the time as merch and we all signed them instead of a yearbook and said how we'd die.

(Tell me your friend group is rife with mental illness without telling me)

All of which is to point out Death Note was a big thing for me, once. I clearly adored it.

I can't really summon up...why, anymore. I do remember L was my favorite character, and he died so early in the grand scheme of things that it impacted my interest for certain. Mello and Near were not particularly interesting to me, which made the latter bit of the series fall flatter for me.

I also remember, when I was behind on the series compared to my friends, because I had no fucking money as a child, teenager, or really until the very end of my twenties, so it took forever for me to get the volumes compared to everyone else I knew, if L or Light "died first" and my friend took to the opportunity to spoil...literally everything that happened left in the series.

Which also impacted my enjoyment of reading those parts.

It was a big Thing and part of my life, but I don't really remember it ever becoming part of my soul, which is kind of a weird place for me to leave it, I suppose.

It's also fair to point out that mystery and detective fiction has never really been my Thing. I've always gravitated more toward sci-fi and fantasy, and so more of my mystery exposure was through things like The Dresden Files, etc. Or, well, Death Note. I am in my 30s and just now experiencing my second Sherlock Holmes adaptation. I have seen probably none of the major detective-y things. It's just never particularly compelled me without a fantasy aspect. I like suspense and puzzling things out...detective stuff is...usually sort of meh.

But, and this is also probably really important: it got really big in the US when I was in middle school and my freshman year of high school.

My freshman year of high school, when it was really at fever pitch, was a very, very, very bad time for me from a mental health perspective, and I honestly remember very little from most of it and what I do is often emotionally empty and flat because my brain has cut a lot of it off. My journals from that time scare me, now, out of that mental state.

And I'm sure that also cut into the way I remember Death Note and the way I was capable of handling it.

So it's one of those things I remember being really into, but I cannot summon up any memories of old love. There were a lot of things I thought were really interesting that it did, but. Not enough to truly compel me emotionally or creatively.

I just have a lot of complicated and mixed feelings about it, a lot of which might not even really be related to the series. I haven't revisited it in a long time.

But it's certainly got a strong message to it, and pretending it doesn't is just plain silly.

On the one hand finding a website that deals in art theft is always awful and disheartening.

But on the other there’s a strange level of INSULT when they’ve got about 3 different collages of the Dresden Files book covers, but none of your art on there. Like AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?! Rude. lol.

Anyway I realised I haven’t actually put this out there for a while, but I have some DF merch over at Redbubble, S6, and Teepublic if you’re looking for something to wear this Halloween season.

Like, I haven’t DONE any art for nearly 2 years since I got a job and my brother stole my tablet for his animations. But they’re still there.

St Patrick's Day Leprechaun #203

Happy St Patrick’s Day! There's a leprechaun in this week's show. We'll practice social distancing through podcasts. Plus, the St Patrick’s Day Internet Music Festival is sort of back with lots of live streaming video shows!

Welcome to the Pub Songs Podcast, the Virtual Public House for Celtic Geek culture. I am your Guide. My name is Marc Gunn. Today’s show is brought to you by my Gunn Runners on Patreon. Subscribe to the podcast at PubSong.net.

She calls it LemonAid - St. Patrick's Day Virtual Festival. There are two stages: Instagram and Facebook. The shows start at noon central and go til 9 PM.

Sharon Powers wrote: "Hmm... The Last Unicorn, all things Tolkien, Star Wars, Star Trek TNG & Picard (working on the rest ??), possibly The Witcher (enjoyed the Netflix show; interested in the rest), Robin McKinley’s Deerskin, Harry Potter, Firefly, Supernatural, Michael Green’s Quest lore, The Secret of Kells...

Literally she was at our house and we were talking in the livingroom while my brother watched Forensic Files and she literally paused mid conversation to stare at the credits and just went "Oh, hey, I know the guy who narrates this." LIKE SHE KNEW HIS FULL NAME WELL ENOUGH TO RECOGNIZE HIM IN THE CREDITS BUT DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS THE NARRATOR OF THE SHOW BEFORE THAT MOMENT 😭

Texted me randomly at like 1am once just to say 'Hey by the way I just found out my friend is married to the Hamilton tour director so if you want to get backstage access or merch or anything hmu' and I was literally so shocked when I read that before school the next morning that I forgot to respond so I didn't get shit

She was looking through my playlist on Thanksgiving and paused and went 'Ah shit, you listen to The Dresden Dolls? I wish I'd known that before, I just threw out a bunch of their merch. I get free merch all the time cause I dated one of the members forever ago.' Like???? Okay?? good to know I guess :')

Bestie literally just drops this shit on me every few months with no warning

I love seeing posts where people talk about their weird degrees of separation from celebrities. It's especially fun cause I have one rich cousin that went to a fancy art school in California so she just knows so many fucking people. She once dated one of the members of The Dresden Dolls. She's friends with the partner of the director of the US Hamilton Tour. She met the guy who narrates Forensic Files at a party once. She just brings up these things casually constantly and I just have to deal with it and come to terms with the fact that I will truely never know who all I am one degree of separation from.

Name: Anzu

Nickname: Anzu

Zodiac Sign: Aries

Height: 5′ 2″

Orientation: Straight

Ethnicity: Chinese

Favorite fruit: Strawberries, Peaches, Nectarines, Cherries . . . I actually like almost all fruit, even some of the less popular ones.  Like durian.

Favorite season: Spring

Favorite book series:  Oh god, which do I pick?  Lord of the Rings?  Harry Potter?  Iron Druid Chronicles?  The Dresden Files?  The Cormoran Strike novels?  Discworld?  The Cinder Spires?  (Wait does that one even count because there’s only one novel written so far?)  Ms. Marvel?  (Or do comic books not count for this question?  XD)

Favorite flower:  Oddly enough, not really one for flowers, especially fragrant ones because I’m really sensitive to really flowery perfumes and scents, although I do find Angel’s Trumpets really pretty (even though they can be super deadly too).

Favorite scent: Grapefruit (or at least the kind they use for soaps) is one of the few scents I can tolerate

Favorite color:  Blue and turqoise.  The fact Mikleo wears those colors is pure coincidence (and clearly a ploy by Bamco to make me throw my wallet at them)

Favorite animal: Cats

Coffee, tea or cocoa: Yes.  I love my espresso drinks, I love mochas, and I love green tea lattes.  I refuse to choose, lol.

Average sleep hours:  6-8, depending on how late I stay up blogging.

Cat or dog person: Cats, definitely cat.

Favorite fictional characters: Oh dear.  Time to show my age and my love for 90s/early 00s anime, lol.  Um, off the top of my head, more or less sorted by fandom/genre and in no particular order:

Tales: Mikleo, Sorey, Yuri Lowell, Leon Magnus/Judas, Emil Castagnier, Marta Lualdi, Lailah, Kohaku Hearts, Hubert Ozwell

Square Enix games: Terra/Tina Branford (FF6), Celes Chere (FF6), Lenneth Valkyrie (Valkyrie Profile)

Gundam: Heero Yuy, Quatre Raberba Winner, Kira Yamato, Athrun Zala, Lunamaria Hawke, Setsuna F. Seiei

Other mecha anime: Sagara Sousuke, Chidori Kaname

Magical Girl anime: Kaname Madoka, Akemi Homura, Ami Mizuno, Fate T Harlaown, Takamachi Nanoha, Kinomoto Sakura, Kusakabe Maron, Kouyama Mitsuki (does she count as a magical girl?  XD)

Shounen anime: Himura Kenshin, Kamiya Kaoru, Mutou Yuugi, Yami/Other Yuugi/Atem, Mazaki Anzu (yes, that might have been where I got my online name from), Kirisawa Fuuko, Kurama (Yuu Yuu Hakusho), Hiei (YYH)

Actual books: Legolas, Harry Dresden, Rowl, Samuel Vimes

Comic books: Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel, Scarlet Witch (at least, her MCU incarnation), Black Widow (MCU), Hawkeye (MCU)

I’m sure I’ve forgotten a few, but I have a lot of characters I’ve grown to love over the years.

Number of blankets you sleep with: 2

Dream trip: Japan.  Or more accurately, hitting up Akihabara, Shibuya, and Harajuku with actual disposable income, lol.  Been there once in 2007, before I had a real job (plus this was before the Tales store was a thing), would totally love to go back and basically raid the Tales store for all the character merch, if nothing else, lol.

Featuring book giveaways and exclusive author interviews, this is a place to recommend, discuss, and obsess over the best current and classic fantasy, science fiction, and horror books. Join us in discussing our latest pick...

September/October: Vicious by V.E. Schwab

Victor Vale and Eli Ever were college friends who discovered the secret to extraordinary abilities together only to become enemies set on bringing the other down in this morally-complex tale of ambition, jealousy, and superpowers,

"There are no good men in this game," Schwab writes in Vicious, and it's true, proving that you don't need good guys to tell a compelling story and that you don't need to sacrifice empathy, feeling, or nuanced self-awareness when telling a tale of anti-heroes.

Read Vicious by V.E. Schwab

Schwab is one of the best writers of her generation and, if you have yet to pick up one of her many speculative fiction books, Vicious is a great place to start, not least of all because its sequel, Vengeful, is out on September 25th. (Schwab also recently released a middle grade novel called City of Ghosts that is perfect reading for the Halloween season.) You won't be disappointed.

Read Vengeful by V.E. Schwab

Come discuss Vicious, Vengeful, and other speculative fiction picks over at the Den of Geek Book Club, and stay tuned for more Villains-related treats in the coming month! You can also enter to win our Villains giveaway, which includes copies of both Vicious and Vengeful, as well as some other exclusive merch.

August/September: European Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman by Theodora Goss

In addition to have the coolest name this side of Space Unicorn Blues, European Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman has a killer premise. The second book in the Extraordinary Adventures of the Athena Club series, European Travel follows Mary Jekyll, Beatrice Rappaccini, Catherine Moreau, and Justine Frankenstein, and Diana Hyde as they make their way into the heart of the Austro-Hungarian Empire into an attempt to save Lucinda Van Helsing.

Den of Geek Chats With Theodora Goss

In The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter, we were first introduced to these characters from the pages (or between the pages) of classic 19th-century literary canon. Author Theodora Goss wanted to give the female characters who were so often written as monsters from these stories a voice of their own. Mary Jekyll is our protagonist and, when we first meet her in The Alchemist's Daughter, she is struggling to find money to support herself and her household following the death of her mother.

Read The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter

When a series of murders seems to be connected to her late father, Dr. Jekyll, or perhaps to his mysterious assistant Mr. Hyde, Mary starts down a path of investigation alongside Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson that leads her to create her own found family of monstrous women.

July/August: Heroine's Journey by Sarah Kuhn

The third book in Sarah Kuhn's ridiculously fun Heroine Complex series, Heroine's Journey follows Bea Tanaka, the younger sister of Heroine Complex protagonist Evie Tanaka. An aspiring twenty-something superheroine who just wants to stop being treated like a kid and be allowed to help save the Bay Area alongside Evie and Evie's superhero partner-best friend Aveda Jupiter, Bea has the power to influence other's emotions—also, sometimes, when she screams, she blows things up. 

In the Heroine Complex world, Kuhn has created an alternate San Fran where a demon opened an Otherworld portal 13 years prior, setting into motion a series of events that led to the creation of other local portals through which demons can come into our world and the development of a human population with otherworldly powers of their own. Bea, Evie, and Aveda are three of those humans, and are part of a superhero team that would give the Scooby gang a run for its found family money.

You don't need to have read the previous two books in the series, centered around Evie and Aveda respectively, to enjoy this world. Kuhn has crafted a story filled with whip smart dialogue, complex female relationships, romance, silly yet dangerous demons, and Asian American superhero representation that works for the casual and more completist reader alike. Fair warning, though: If you go into this one blind, you will find yourself going back to read the other two installments. That's just the way the demon cupcake crumbles.

Come discuss Heroine's Journey and other speculative fiction picks over at the Den of Geek Book Club, and stay tuned for more Heroine's Journey-related treats in the coming month!

June/July: Brief Cases by Jim Butcher

Brief Cases, a collection of several of Butcher's excellent short stories and novellas from within the universe of Harry Dresden, is a delight for new and old Dresden Files fans alike. Centered around the theme of parenting, the stories in the collection range from a prequel set in the Old West to a Rashomon-style tale of Harry discovering a warlock at the zoo.

You can read our full review of Brief Cases here, or head over to the Den of Geek Book Club to discuss the book. We're also giving away a complete set of the Dresden Files books, if you're looking to add to your own collection. Find out how to enter here.

Read Brief Cases by Jim Butcher

May/June Pick: Ship It by Britta Lundin

Riverdale is one of Den of Geek's favorite shows, so when we heard one of its writers was coming out with her debut novel, you better believe we put it on our must-read list.

Britta Lundin's Ship It is the story of a teen fanfiction writer, Claire, who is pulled into the behind-the-scenes world of her favorite TV show, and Forest, one of the show's male leads who understands absolutely nothing about fandom. Ship It is an exploration of fandom, queerness, TV creation, and love in its many forms. Read our full review here, then check out our podcast interview with Lundin.

Join the Ship It discussion over on the Den of Geek Book Club Goodreads page.

April/May Pick: The Power by Naomi Alderman

Imagine a world that completely flips the balance of power when it comes to gender. This is the setting for The Power, Naomi Alderman's 2016 science fiction novel set in a world in which women develop the ability to shoot electric jolts from their fingertips, leading to their dominance as a gender.

As Delia Harrington notes in a review for Den of Geek, The Power is a vital read for a time in which some falsely claim that women have stolen all of the power from men. President Obama named this one of this favorite books of 2017, and the book somehow feels even more relevant now than it did when it was published just two long years ago.

If you're into The Handmaid's Tale, then check out the novel that has been called "our era's Handmaid's Tale." Then head over to the Den of Geek Book Club Goodreads page to discuss.

March/April Pick: Children of Blood & Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

Children of Blood and Bone is the first book in the West African-inspired fantasy series Legacy of Orisha. The debut from 24-year-old Tomi Adeyemi made waves when it was bought by Macmillan for a reported seven-figure sum.

The story follows Zelie, a girl who lost her mother in the purge of magic executed by Orisha's totalitarian ruler, Saran. In the first book, Zelie sets out to restore magic to the land and take down Saran, with a little help from her friends: a giant lionaire, her older brother Tzain, and Princess Amari. Prince Inan, another protagonist in the book, pursues Zelie as she undergoes her quest, torn between his family and, you know, doing the right thing.

Read our full review of Children of Blood and Bone.

Children of Blood and Bone is a promising start to a new young adult fantasy series that is set to take the world by storm. Head over to our Den of Geek Book Club page to join the discussion!

February/March Pick: All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai

All Our Wrong Todays is a time travel novel where the "wrong" timeline is our own. When protagonist Tom Barren travels back in time using his father's technology, he changes the world from a utopia where the problems of war, poverty, and under-ripe avocados have been solved, into, well, this one. By centering our timeline as the "wrong" one, author Elan Mastai subverts many of the classic time travel narrative trope, giving us a fresh science fiction novel for anyone who worries they're living in the darkest timeline.

You can read our full review of the book here, check out our interview with author Elan Mastai, then head over to our Den of Geek Book Club page to join the discussion!

January/February Pick: Binti by Nnedi Okorafor

Binti by Nnedi Okorafor is a Hugo Award-winning novella about a young African woman who leaves her home on Earth for the first time to attend an intergalactic university on another planet. On the voyage, something goes terribly wrong, forcing Binti to rely on her mathematic skills and her culture to survive.

Learn more about Binti and Nnedi Okorafor's other work.

The Afrofuturist space adventure novella is unlike anything I have ever read, coming from one of the most exciting authors working in science fiction right now. The story continues in two follow-up novellas already published.

Head over to our Den of Geek Book Club page to join in the discussion!

Character stickers are live at the website and our Etsy!

We've started with the Dresden Files (by request), and OFMD, but the Locked Tomb is on the way, followed by Good Omens... hopefully sometime this week to coincide with our Spring Break sale over at our Etsy.

These are water-resistant matte laminate vinyl stickers, and they're pretty big -- bigger than our mega-sized bookmarks. 4" and full colour.

Check out the Spring Break sale too: the whole shop is discounted to 15% off until next weekend. :)

I just realised my Bob’s on the Loose t-shirt has illegal tumblr tiddy.

Illegal version here.

Legal version here.

[unseelieaccords]

Please note that if you’re the kind of arse wipe that steals other people’s designs and puts them on t shirts and sells them for your own profit you’re scum and I don’t want you following my blog.

And I’m posting this here because it is specifically a friends Dresden shirt that has been stolen (AGAIN).

Support the original artist here.

Not posting the art theft because they don’t need the publicity, and I hope they get eaten by a troll.

[unseelieaccords]

IN LIGHTER NEWS

Harry’s birthday approaches, and soon after that Kringle will be out. I haven’t mentioned these much since last January. This is my Dresden Files collection. Not everything is on every site (part in due to “copyright violations” for pacman, and archaic uploading systems). 

Society 6 is the best quality. Teepublic is the cheapest. Redbubble is a happy medium between price and quality.

Redbubble | Society 6 | Teepublic

(If you sign up for various news letters they’ll let you know things like sales. There’s always a lot of sales this time of year).

If you have any requests drop them by me. ♥
