FRIENDS. My book deadline is end of March and my move-in date is 1st April. The next couple of weeks are going to be insanely busy and stressful so advanced apologies if I’m shit craic, no good at responding to messages in a timely manner, or generally fall off the face of the earth. I’ll have yas all over to the new digs when the dust settles and I can breathe again. Otherwise please excuse me while I have a non-stop anxiety attack 🙏 https://www.instagram.com/p/CqSR7Jfsoaw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
These two original miniature sculptures are still available from the online store if any lovely peeps wanna pick one up and help me with the cost of moving house 🙏 . . . #thestormlamprituals #cryptogrampuzzlepost #puzzles #ciphers #codes #riddles #spells #witchcraft #alchemy #ritual #magic #folkhorror #illustration #storytelling #mailgame #zines #selfpublishing #occult #puzzlestory #smallpress #playbymail #boardgames #escaperoom #chooseyourownadventure #roleplayinggames #tabletopgames #southerngothic https://www.instagram.com/p/CqIAAVvMX0I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As the skemmy bastards continue to eviscerate all that is sacred and good about our little island and the cost of living skyrockets beyond what any reasonable human can afford, small acts of solidarity feel necessary to stay sane if nothing else. Daft witchy puzzles aren’t gonna fix the situation or save us from the wreckage but if a little discount is the difference between getting an Xmas prezzie for a loved one and not, I might as well huh! https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl51ZJWMZUl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Here’s the finished drawing from PAX! Couldn’t tell you the final count of hours spent making this up while everyone else did real work but pretty pleased with how it turned out 🤘 Hope its winner feels the same! 🎉 . . . #thestormlamprituals #cryptogrampuzzlepost #puzzles #ciphers #codes #riddles #spells #witchcraft #alchemy #ritual #magic #folkhorror #illustration #storytelling #mailgame #zines #selfpublishing #occult #puzzlestory #smallpress #playbymail #boardgames #escaperoom #chooseyourownadventure #roleplayinggames #tabletopgames #southerngothic https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl5p_3KM_x2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Have you literally ever seen a more stone cold pack of bloody babes in your entire life? Cannot express my gratitude strongly enough to queen bee @ritaorlov for orchestrating this whole US trip, from carting my ass around NYC, to letting me sit and doodle during the whole con in Philly, to introducing me to incredible human beings and feeding me the nicest food. I’m bummed to be leaving it all behind but so so thankful and so ridiculously privileged and so excited to come back again sooooooon xx https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl2MWhWIzqe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
