Tea Hollow Inn

Working draft of eventual debut selfpub book endeavour.

Wattpad: here🎀🍂🍁✨

Notes: Two detectives walk into a tea bar. The Tea Hollow Inn always was the safest place in the seaside town. Coven ever watchful.

Gonna post a working draft that I intend to eventually self publish. So if you like witches, coven activities, and slow burn (eventual smut).. Stay tuned xo

So, @ladycibia inspired me with her chibi pictures and now I had to draw Jaskier and the team he has when he first meets Geralt. Here he is welcoming his male ralts named Thyme into the team.

Draft of Chapter Two: Ophelia & Asher’s Story

Upon entering her room to change, Ophelia walked to the window to take in the view of the rolling hills and trees beyond the manor. The sky was a gorgeous bright blue with a few wisps of white clouds here and there. She was dying to get out to the stables and ride. “Well would you look at this, miss! Haven’t seen this get-up in an age. You made quite a scene riding about in these clothes the…

Draft of Chapter One: Ophelia & Asher’s Story

Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England September 1893 Wiggs, the usually calm and stately butler, came running down the steps to meet Asher as he rode up to Woodclyffe Manor. “Welcome home Master Asher! I beg your pardon, Lord Wyndclyffe,” he bowed low, showing Asher Hammersleigh, the new Earl of Wyndclyffe, his due respect. Exhausted from the day and a half ride from London, Asher Hammersleigh,…

The criticisms they put onto those movements came from a proximity and from being in that milieu, but I’ve not seen a lot I’d call explicitly or necessarily anti marxist in the fullest sense, and things in both that would seem to play nicely with each other given the right working. I recall Foucault saying something (in a foreward to a work for Deleuze and Guattari, either for Anti Oedipus or a collection of essays) “if you want a theory of money look no farther than marx”, for example. Not to say they line up, just that the opposition I’ve seen doesn’t hold up in text. 

But in the US, the process of discourse uptake happened in places where there was no such milieu, and it happened in conjunction with cold war politics. like the establishment of a sort of Derridean literati in the 80s and the dawn of the neoliberal era. I can’t help but feel that must have also shaped the way those works took shape and what class got to employ them. Whatever tension I’m seeing in classical marxist politics and post structuralist workings, I know some of it is legitimately theoretical, but I think this has to be a contributing factor on the political field. 

In the US, these discourses were taken up in a society with the
