Okay I respect that you don’t think this is up to snuff, but I loved it.

THOUGHTS:

1. It is UNACCEPTABLE that they don’t have an image of the bat brooch as a tiara. I need to know what it looks like so I can figure out how upset to be that I am not comically wealthy.

2. I didn’t know about the Westwood horns and now I want some.

3. I refuse to look up any details about the conflict between Yeats and Crowley, this version is canon. Two GROWN MEN, one a RENOWNED POET, screaming magic spells at each other is Peak Victorian. I would absolutely watch a dramatization of this. I like to imagine Crowey’s voice breaking periodically. I don’t know if you ever followed the Twitter threads about The Midnight Society, which imagined conversations between horror writers, but this is just… straight out of that and I love it.

Monicaaaaaaaaa! Thank you for another lovely newsletter. That owl! Your honor I love him! I want everything you've highlighted here tbqh. I aspire to be a collector of vintage charms, but alas I am not very good at it yet. And that devil is just too spendy, but he's adorbs.

Victorian mysticism is another one of my obsessions, so I was particularly delighted by this. I'm also grateful that you linked to your earlier work because it's a spectacular one. JAR!! That delightful inkwell! The sweet little pup! Thank you thank you thank you!
