I have been warned by the Mastodon moderators that some of my posts will be marked sensitive. This was a direct result of a post which sought to show the direct consequences of book burning as has been reported in Gaza on this platform.

I’m seeking an expert in geomancy, ley lines, and occult practices involving the land to speak at an online event on 15 June. Anyone you’d suggest? Can be skeptic or believer, as long as they can explain the concept! It’s a paid gig, and the audience is mainly writers.
It's for my next Writing the Occult, which is about connections to the land - so if you have other suggestions that fit that theme, I’d also love to hear them.
I'm making an owl nest box. The last face to go on will have a rectangular entrance hole cut in it just above the cross bar there. I Hope the owls don't bring a spirit level. 👷🦉🦉
Do you think it needs a spar across inside to roost or hop on? Or is that just too much gentrification. #Birds
