"Hephaistos watched himself in the great silver mirror. The magic had worked, well, like a charm. It wasn't his crude, bearded face staring back at him. Instead, he saw smooth cheeks, long, dark lashes and flowing golden hair."

A maiden huntress stumbles upon #Artemis bathing. Will this encounter end differently than for Aktaion, who was torn to pieces by his own hunting dogs?

-Tenebrous Press remains one of the best #indie presses around w the wonderful assortment of swag they send with every order & this HC edition of POSTHASTE MANOR by Jolie Tomajan & Carson Winter is no exception. It's got cover art by Trevor Henderson, illustrations by Alex Woodroe, & the story sounds fantastic. (I'll review it soon!)
(Btw, the boxes they send their orders in make fabulous containers for art supplies.)
The theme is dreams. I have written a story in which #Persephone approaches #Lethe, the #nymph of the #underworld river that makes shades forget their former life, and asks her to help her forget about her life on the surface.

How's my night going? It's late and I'm sending out invites and responding to invite responses and other fully networking academic issues. Stuff I couldn't do during the day because of other duties.
Goodnight now. Here's Patrick Watson. I saw him live in 2010 and that was such a treat! Some of the best gig photos I ever took also.
Hello Masto! Home late and very sleepy/hoping for an early night. Still working on CE for the article I submitted yesterday (editor bounced it back to me with some corrections based on the latest APA format -- is it just me who finds the new APA's requirement re sentence case when journal/book titles are NOT in sentence case, very illogical? It upsets my eyes, but I do what I must!)
Geese continue to delight me with every single released this year, so enjoy "Space Race"!

This week's #MythologyMonday theme is trees 🌲
Many stories in #GreekMythology have trees in it, some of which I will be telling in this thread.
The most famous tree-related myth must be the transformation of Daphne. Hit with Eros' fiery arrows, #Apollon was burning with desire for the nymph and pursued her when she fled from his advances. Feeling her strength wane, Daphne prayed for help from either her father or Gaia and was turned into the first laurel tree.
Fisted my way out of Tartarus and found a new fwend. I came really close to defeating it, we were both at near death and in the end I was the one that was bested. Oh well, completed a prophecy and became one achievement richer!
