          A quotation from Anaïs Nin

          The important task of literature is to free man, not to censor him, and that is why Puritanism was the most destructive and evil force which ever oppressed people and their literature: it created hypocrisy, perversion, fears, sterility.

          Anaïs Nin (1903-1977) Catalan-Cuban-French author, diarist

                  The Women of Nell Gwynne's by Kage Baker. Cover art by J. K. Potter.

The cover features a close-up, portrait-style image of a woman with pale, violet-tinted skin, positioned in the right foreground and looking directly at the viewer. The title, "The Women of Nell Or Gwynne's," is centered at the bottom in a large, white, serif font with slight flourishes. The author's name, "KAGE BAKER," is printed in a smaller, capitalized, white, serif font at the top center.

The woman has dark hair adorned with a large, decorative headpiece featuring purple feathers and a dark flower. She wears dramatic dark eye makeup, dark lipstick, and a black lace choker with a small pendant. Her right hand, clad in a long, black, satin-like glove, is raised toward her chin. Her clothing is a dark, textured, purple and black garment with lace detailing at the neckline.

The background depicts an architectural setting, possibly a stone terrace or balcony, under an arched structure. To the left, a large stone castle or fortification sits atop a green, grassy hill, overlooking a body of water under a dark, cloudy sky. The lighting is moody and dramatic, dominated by a cool-toned, monochromatic purple and blue palette. The overall atmosphere is somber and mysterious, with soft gradients of blue and purple in the sky and shadows. The lighting highlights the woman's face and the textures of her headpiece and clothing, while the background elements are more muted and atmospheric.

                      The “mouth” is both metaphor and mechanism: a site of speech, but also of consumption and transformation. The room listens as much as it speaks. Together with the audience, the artists shape what can be said and shared, and what remains unsaid and unshared.

                      This is an invitation to experience performance as something shared and unstable, where boundaries between disciplines dissolve, and where the audience is not outside the work, but within it.

                              This week’s wallpapers are from Set 8, for The Worlds Across Time Trilogy. To download them, visit this link and scroll down to the last Book-Themed-Wallpaper link on that page.

                              Generally, I haven’t written epic fantasy. Or even high fantasy. My fantasy has always been a type of low fantasy, using mildly unrealistic elements to explain typical things more creatively, and blending a lot of science fiction into it. In early years, I heard many people whine online about their dislike of combining these 2 genres, but I could never find any actual rules in the speculative genre that don’t allow me to do so. And honestly, I’ve never been that big into following rules to begin with. But when I began to work on these wallpapers, I focused purely on a thematic fantasy ambience. While the 3 Worlds Across Time books contain a lot of historical, even contemporary, and sci-fi elements, I suddenly started thinking that doesn’t make them any less fantasy. What famous fantasy stories don’t draw from at least one of these other genres?

                              In fact, Fantasy makes no sense unless you have some concept of Ordinary Reality, not only underlying the story, but actively woven into it. My stories also explore spiritual and deeply psychological concepts–but in presentation, I never address the impending end of the world. Character situations rarely affect anyone except themselves. And I do not use magic frequently. When writing these stories, I just never thought of including, for instance, spells, trained enchantresses, or wizards. Only years later did I even notice that these characters appear often in other fantasy I read. My mind just skipped over them as uninteresting.

                              But when I began to use some really beautiful templates saved in Canva, I was surprised. Dragons fit really well into This Merry Summertime, even into sarcastic quotations like the one used in the wallpaper. Taking a basic galaxy or space design for Ryan and Essie was super-obvious-stale. But I found these Little Squiggles (Canva specializes in Little Squiggles, and they can look great once you figure out how to implement them) that gently evoke the genetic spiral of DNA, to describe Ryan and Essie’s underlying closeness, without showing it blatantly. For one thing, because that would give the incorrect idea that this book uses a genetic mutation plot! Which is an admirable, but different storyline.

                              I think this series wallpaper just about sums up my fantasy writing. It makes connections to the unseen just as much as magic-heavy or epic stories do, but you might miss this at first. The ideas are veiled behind the low-key vibe. If you are the kind of person I like, you will see and understand without having it explained. If you don’t figure it out, you may be better off pursuing another author.

                              Facets of Fantasy’s “Jurant” is one of the few stories that uses what seems to be an inborn magical trait in one of the characters–Sekana is able to raise people to life. But “Halogen Crossing” actually contains some of the most surreal and fantastical elements. They are also largely very dark and kept unknown in the story, symbolized by the deep and mysterious ocean that surrounds Cassandra’s island home. Like the ocean around Moana’s home, no one knows how far it goes. Some questions aren’t answered in HC. This DOES NOT MEAN THE QUESTIONS AREN’T THERE. They simply aren’t explored openly. I looked at the Facets wallpaper for this set, all the varying shades of blue and ocean, and I thought of all the ones I’ve made, this most reflects what Halogen Crossing is about. I hadn’t done one for this story before.

                              Yhe essential quality of all fantasy, which is examining what is behind the daily world we see, the internal and core movements that make people do things, is actually present in my books. I had grown to believe myself that Worlds Across Time was really just a compilation of other genres written as fantasy because I grew up in a clique of fantasy readers. But after working on these wallpapers, I learned a couple of new skills for image insertion (especially proud of getting central quote image into a frame on MerrySummer’s Wallpaper!) And I realized sometimes it’s ABSOLUTELY HEINOUS to believe what other people tell you.
