Hello Folk of the Hollow!
I want to start out this post by talking a little bit about this new, like, series that Iβm calling The Pocket Guide for Peculiar Living. The idea behind the guide is to provide inspiration to the denizens of the Hollow (thatβs you!) to find ways to romanticize life and find the beauty and whimsy in the everyday. I hope that my little guide will help you be able to see the magic that is all around you!
