This is just a place for me to put small things I might want to share, highlight, or write! It isn't so much a blog as it is a pile of scraps that I wanted to share; kind of like a midden, made up of discarded seashells! I don't know how you could have ended up here without having been on my site first, but if you haven't, I'm Sam aka Sammy aka Marsworms, and I constantly (to varying degrees) write, make spooky art, and research historical and biological topics.
