  2. I think there was equal distaste… Weekly Recap 11/3/2025

    When I was a kid in school, I think I pretty much had an equal distaste for most of my classes. Trying to pick a favorite is, as usual, a very difficult thing for me to do.

    I mean, I had a Computer Science class where we basically played games 90% of the time. Does that count?

    But electives aside, I can tell you one thing I especially disliked was English class.

    I absolutely hated reading books and writing about them. At the time, there were many titles that I couldn’t appreciate in the slightest degree: Joy Luck Club, Mrs. Dalloway, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Animal Farm, Things Fall Apart… and the list goes on.

    I would have done anything in my power to not read those books.

    A surprising turn of events, then, that much of my time today is spent reading books and writing about them.

    Good morning and happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a happy Samhain and a happy start to November!

    Did you remember to change your clocks?

    I probably drove for about 12 hours over the weekend. Selene and I went from home to Ft. Lauderdale to Silver Springs, FL for FPG-Samhain… then to Ft. Lauderdale again and finally back to home. We were only at FPG for about… hmm… maybe 18 hours total? But at least we got to see our people for a brief moment! And I got to meet Sara Mastros and Erich and Alannah Brown in person for the first time.

    Due to the short time span, the fact that we arrived after all the workshops had ended, and my failure to take many pictures (in total, I took five), I won’t be doing my usual festival recap post. But you can always rewind time and read about what happened in 2023!

    Okay, ready? Here’s my recap:

    FPG-Samhain 2025: Saw old friends. Met new friends.

    Oh and we may have seen aliens.

    It may have also been the Taurid meteor shower, but it also may have been aliens.

    When we left on Sunday morning, we decided to go to the most dive diner we could find. It actually turned out pretty delicious.

    What kind of people would we be if we didn’t also stop by Buc-ee’s?

    I got some fudge.

    One is the standard chocolate flavor. The other is blueberry cheesecake. And yes, it actually tastes like blueberry cheesecake!

    Earlier in the week, we did some pumpkin carving. You can watch my short video showing off my creation, or you can just look at this picture.

    I think that’s about all to report for now. I’ve got a pretty packed week and we’re planning for another trip this weekend.

    Stay tuned for more soon!

  3. My pumpkin for 2025 is complete! Charging a light to illuminate it for the evening.

  4. Last night I tried my hand at making a high-effort jack-o'-lantern. Got sprayed with a fine pumpkin mist from the #Dremel, but I'm pretty happy with the final result!

    Inspired by the #pinball machine that's on its way to me after nearly a year of anticipation 😁

  5. Is Mastodon doing a #pumpkincarving sharing thing this year?

  6. #ScribesAndMakers 10/15 How's your creativity going this month?

    Meh.

    Actually I have a good bit to be proud of. I picked up another commission for my erotica work, which is rather validating. And I'm within reach of finishing a side novella project I started back in August.

    Still stagnating on Taliesin and wishing I had the time to do other projects, but I'm only one man.

    Also we made Jack-o-lanterns over the weekend.

    Text above picture says, "Midwives at the Royah OldHam Hospital have made dilation pumpkins for their decorating competition. Truly terrifying."

    Below are two rows of 5 pumpkins.

    Each pumpkin has googly eyes, an open mouth to match the hat and a hat that is labeled from 1 cm to 10 cm

    10 cm is most of the pumpkin

    As George Takei would say, #OhMyyyy

  8. Decided to 3D model a pumpkin totem for Halloween instead of doing literally anything productive today 🎃
    What started as "I'll just make a simple jack-o-lantern" somehow became a three-tier tower of increasingly unhinged pumpkin faces. The bottom one looks like it's having an existential crisis.

    Now I have to resist the urge to print 47 copies and turn my yard into a pumpkin army...

  9. Happy belated Stego-ween everyone! Hope your day was full of fun and a healthy amount of candy! Whether that means a lot or a little, I'll let you decide 😂

    Had an awesome day pumpkin carving! Bottom shows the whole family pumpkin patch 😊 For mine, I decided to carve the stegosaurus I drew earlier this month, because of course I went with a dinosaur 😁 How was your Halloween?

  10. Is carving up a pumpkin and making a jack-o-lantern the single grossest thing that we as a society do? No? Is it in the top 10? Yeah, probably.

    Why do we do it? Specifically, why do I do it when our kids are old enough to have moved out of the house and we don’t have them here at all during the Halloween season?

    I don’t know, but I still do it. Specifically, I just did it. Meet our 2024 jack-o-lantern. I am still thinking of a name for him. Smiley? Jackass? Putz? They all seem appropriate.

    My beloved wife and I watched It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown last night. I completely forgot about the scene where Lucy and the girls used Charlie Brown’s big bald head as a template for a jack-o-lantern. Freakin’ hysterical.

  14. Since my son @AaronZA is shy about sharing his crafts, I'm doing it for him! 😼 This was one of the pumpkins he carved for Halloween, and I drew the bricks and wood planks on with a Sharpie. He also makes video games and D&D maps, so if you're into that, please go give him a follow! ❤️
