Sometimes it feels like fifty, sometimes it feels like a day. I had no idea what this world would become when I first set out to create it. It was a month after our wedding in September of 2015 when the idea first came to me. I was still screenwriting at the time. But I’d…
We recently relaunched ads for the first time since 2017, and now hundreds of new readers are experiencing The Guide to Magiq and the Briarverse for the very first time! Because we have so many new readers, I thought it would be helpful to take a look at two significant parts of experiencing the Magiqverse, one…
Another massive thank you to everyone who worked the hexes to ground Woolie and me. I’m feel about 3,000% better. Like I said, in the last post, Woolie is still in here, but separate. I can hear him but it’s not this chaos of noise and emotion. So thanks for the peace (of mind.) Another…
When I first conceived of Ackerly Green, I established the style and branding in a much more “classic lit” vibe. Lots of emerald greens and blacks, filigreed gold monograms, worn edges, and ornate design elements. I LOVE that vibe, but as we wrapped the events in The Monarch Papers and properly launched the company, that…
So I didn’t want to say anything at first, but I’ve been having weird dreams. Like WEIRD dreams. Vivid, weird, and in them, I’m not me. The thing is, I’ve been having them ever since Woolie was last in the office and I tried to console him. When I fell asleep beside him, and he…
I want to get it out of the way and say that nothing out of the ordinary happened while I was in City Hall Station. That’s not to say that I couldn’t feel something down there. Whether it was residual memory, or just residual cold from the snow the night before, there was something down…
This is my second recording (this one actually worked) of me going through the process of creating mockup stickers for AG+’s April theme. Enjoy!
In the early days of Ackerly Green, our Patreon support was a crucial key in maintaining all the things required to run the interactive elements of the company. The sites, subscriptions, apps, and the forum are all expensive to maintain, and many of you graciously supported me when I only had The Monarch Papers to…
So, I assume it goes without saying that I’ve worn my Herman pin every day since this all started. But Catherine found the last Woolie “clue” I haven’t felt the pull since I broke into what I assume was the Ackerly Green Bookshop where our “A.G” worked. No pull until yesterday morning. I made the…
Catherine and CJ eat tons of food, drink wine, discuss the books they read in January, and asked each other rapid-fire lit-related questions. Originally shot live on Instagram, on the last Thursday of the month.
