I feel like I’ve had a hundred dreams lately, but I can only remember snippets that fade away completely upon waking.
I know I haven’t been sleeping deeply enough to get into a good REM sleep, so everything’s vague and gone before I even reopen my eyes. I wake up every three or so hours.
It’s very frustrating.
I love my dreams, even the disturbing ones. They’re so much more entertaining than “real life.” No book ever written compares to my dreamtime. Considering I’m a confirmed bibliophile, I guess you’ll just have to take my word that. heh

In other news… I was really pleased with this week’s Arkana. Some of the poses and facial expressions were wonderful. I guess I’m becoming a better artist all the time. And since I’ve introduced Gozala, I suppose I should mention I got a short story accepted to an anthology. The reason I bring it up is that Gozala is the main character of the short story and if you like my comic, you might want to buy the Anthology when it comes out so that you can read her back story. If you buy the book, I think you will discover I am a much better writer than artist.
I’ve been keeping it quiet and haven’t even told my family
. The anthology will be called Elementary, My Dear Cthulhu: Mystery & Detective Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos to be published at Lindisfarne Press. 
Cool, yes? I’ll let you guys know more as I get more information. I don’t intend to tell my family until I have the book in my hands. I don’t want a repeat of last time. My mom was asking me about it nearly every day and then that jerk at mediumrarebooks broke the contract. But nuts to him, I think I’ve found a more honest publisher.

This week’s newsletter is in honor of Ostara. The article and all of the Sites of Interest deal with Ostara, its activities, and foods. All the quotes this week are Irish Sayings or Blessings in honor of St Patrick’s day. I hope everyone enjoys their Ostara and/or St Patty’s day festivities (and don’t drink too much green beer).

I “borrowed” one of your humor stories from this weeks newsletter and posted it on my Xanga. I wrote a few jumpled thoughts on the word “assumption” and thought your tarot humor would be applicable. I did add a link to the newsletter! Of course:dragonfly:

I agree with you, I think my dreams are far more interesting than my so-called, waking life.
