Ugh god I am already doom scrolling. Phone going into airplane mode ahead of schedule.
#save me Ombria in Shadow audiobook you’re my only hoe#I have also downloaded the Fellowship of the Ring for work tomorrow#it’s the big guns folks#I will break out Catch-22 for the second time this year if I must#but that’s like Big Red Button Under a Glass Case territory#I think I listened to The Fox Wife like five times

How the fuck has Patricia McKillip never won a Hugo or Nebula. Fake awards.
Forgotten Beasts of Eld and Ombria in Shadow didn't even get fucking NOMINATED?!
#forgotten beasts of eld would have been up against the dispossessed#so i suspect it was doomed regardless#but i've read two of the other books from that year's ballots and it should have been on there#how many forgettable-except-for-the-errors niven-pournelle collabs did the hugos fucking need#...christ ombria in shadow would have been up against leguin again + m*eville + ga*man?#and the next year elizabeth fucking moon won? unbearable.#is this how people who care about athletes feel

"You raven-eyed hag, some bitter bird ate your heart out so long ago you don’t even remember how to be human. I may be a fool-headed limpet with nothing left to cling to and about to be done to death for my shoes, but if I hear you’ve set your bleak eyes at harming Kyel Greve, I’ll come shoeless out of my grave to put you in my place, you ugly foul mausoleum."
— Patricia A. McKillip, Ombria in Shadow (2002),

What, she wondered, did it hold at the heart of itself? Its past, most likely: ghosts, memories and dreams, guarded against time within passages as unnoticed as the silent, busy veins in the wrist.

I see those "comfort movie/show" posts and think 'damn, I do not watch enough tv or movies for this, why would anyone turn on a screen for comfort' and then I remember:
Ombria in Shadow audiobook and Catch-22 audiobook. Oh, Yossarian, we're really in it now. Things could be worse; I could have to run across a port city barefoot.

I received a fantastic opportunity to be featured on Shepherd, a book recommendation site pioneered by authors talking about their favourite books.
In this article, I discuss what I consider to be some of the top fantasy books for cinematic experiences. Have you read any of the books on this list?

I just finished my first Patricia mckillip book, Ombria in Shadow, and I was utterly entranced??
it’s about hidden things — worlds, intentions, identities, rooms, capabilities. this book reignited my love for shadowy, dreamlike fantasy.
