Octothorpe 148: I’m With Liz

Octothorpe 145: James Bacon and His Enthusiasms

John, Alison and Tommy are weaving ropes of fate as norns. The ropes lead to little spools, above their heads, reminiscent of a sculpture called Umbilical by Conrad Shawcross which Alison will explain in more detail in Octothorpe 146. The words “Octothorpe 145” appear at the top, and “Looking forward to Norncon” at the bottom.
Art by Alison Scott.

John might, Alison won’t, and Tommy would (in a heartbeat).
