Nothing to Be Frightened About Here
When Charlotte and Jane’s cruise ship docks for a couple of days in New Orleans, they run into an old crush of Jane’s. He joins them aboard the ship, along with a band reuniting with a former member. But when that band member is shot with a silver bullet under a full moon, Jane’s new beau looks like a suspect. After all, he is writing a book about New Orlean’s werewolf legend. Will finding the truth cost Charlotte her relationship with her sister?

I was excited to be back with these characters. While some of the supporting cast are in the background, the suspects are strong, and I enjoyed watching the main cast’s relationships grow. I have to give a special shout out to Charlotte and Jane’s relationship since their struggle is well represented. The plot is strong, with plenty to keep us engaged before the logical climax. If this is how these characters sail off into the sunset, I’ll be happy. But I hope they come back for more.

It's #FolkloreFriday 🌾🌕

The final Folklore Friday of August, the full moon tonight, and the last sheaf standing.

Welsh and Celtic harvest folklore understood the spirit of the crop as a living presence that retreated before the reapers into the final standing grain as the harvest progressed. By the time the field was almost done, everything it had accumulated through the season resided in what remained. The cutting of the last sheaf was a ritual moment — who cut it mattered, what happened to it mattered, and the customs that grew around it across different regions of Wales reflected a community that understood its relationship with the land as reciprocal and ceremonial rather than simply practical.

The corn dolly kept through winter preserved the spirit of the harvest until spring. The Hag of the Harvest carried an honour that was also a responsibility. The last sheaf held the wisdom of the whole season.

A fitting end to a month of accumulated wisdom, upstream journeys, and hazel nuts falling into sacred pools. The harvest is in. 🌾🌕
