I’m planning on shaking this last week off and getting back to it in the new one.

Howdy everyone! Here’s a public summary of my activity this week ending April 21, 2023!

This week was a bit of a lost one. I basically am not sure where the week went. I got a bit of work on the site done, but I felt super burned out every time I went to post on the blog daily and ended up just posting some Omnium Gatherum stuff one day, a meme, and a new propaganda poster. I’m planning on shaking this last week off and getting back to it in the new one.

Also, happy, healthy, safe and sane wishes to you and the whole planet on this 4.543 billionth, plus another new one, anniversary of Earth Day, tomorrow!

And, as always, I worked on various other things I’ve not specifically mentioned on website, blog, and more … Enjoy!

Thank you for visiting and being a guest of Hermetic Library. You help me be of service and make the work of the library meaningful. Especial thanks to each and every ongoing Patron on Patreon, Subscriber at Bandcamp, and Member on Ko-Fi for making the work of the library possible!

Things to check out at Hermetic Library

• I continued to work on Equinox I:iv, and updated The Felon Flower, The Three Worms, Adela, The Political Memory, Midsummer Eve, The Eyes of St. Ljubov, and Review.
• I noticed that Liber Libræ sub figurâ XXX – The Book of the Balance had a couple of typos, and fixed that.
• I created FEAR IS FAILURE, a new bit of propaganda for the Ministry of Information, with quote and downloadables on the page.

And on the blog

All the quotes, reviews, &c. (But not OG, Events Calendar, Zine, &c.)

• She had a fourfold word for any cowpoke who tried to corral her
• Thou therefore who desirest Magical Gifts, be sure that thy soul is firm and steadfast; for it is by flattering thy weaknesses that the Weak Ones will gain power over thee. Humble thyself before thy Self, yet fear neither man nor spirit. Fear is failure, and the forerunner of failure: and courage is the beginning of virtue. — Liber Libræ sub figurâ XXX – The Book of the Balance. Quote featured at FEAR IS FAILURE from the Ministry of Information.
