The NPR show "Here & Now" just aired a segment about the 1976 Wrinkle in Time cover artist, using my interview with them from the longer episode I posted a while back. Pretty cool!

If I had a nickel every time Chris Pine played the father of an adventurous, biracial daughter in a fantasy movie where he's estranged from her due to imprisonment after a big venture goes sideways, I'd have two nickels. </Doofenshmirtz>

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗
Oh gosh! This is going back a long way. And all but a few are unfinished novels, because Me.
Shekhinah (CSI, Grissom/Sara, E).
We meet awkward little Gibbie and his doting parents, and bright little Satya and her loving but terribly ill parents. They age up to about twenty one (Gil) and twelve (Satya / Sara). Then I jumped straight for the smut challenge prompts and into Season Six, and never really went back to fill in the rest. Anyway, if you want a backgrounder on how they grew up and why it was so damn hard for them to get together...
Rhapsody For Two (CSI: NY, Flack/Angell, E)
A New York un-Fairytale. Three short years in the lives of two detectives trying to make a difference in the world. A literary love song to two of New York's fictional finest: Don Flack and Jess Angell. This novelette has a Choose Your Own Timeline split, so you get to decide whether Jess Angell lives or dies in your headcanon! (BRING HANKIES.) TW for death.
Noise and Signal (X-Files / Wrinkle in Time / Contact, Mulder/Scully, Ellie/Palmer, T)
A cross-crossover that I still dream about, that I would need a year to research properly and write. It's 2004. The alien race from Vega (Contact) makes contact again, and this time they want to visit, and to help the Earth fight the colonization of the virus-born aliens (X-Files) . But what is their true intention? What is the Divine or Demonic nature of the Spaceship that everybody wants, and to whom does it rightfully belong? Is the Earth just a chessboard, or does Humanity have a greater role to play (Wrinkle in Time series)?
Detour Ahead (Blue Bloods, Jamie/Eddie, E)
Another novel that, as its name implies, ran away from me. I would still love to finish it, but the writing in later seasons unfortunately just made me fall out of love with the show. But this was SO MUCH FUN. Eddie and Jamie get together over Season 8, and try to keep up an actual grown-up functional relationship among a backdrop of shady underworld NYPD politics, impossibly nosy Reagans and Eddie's painful family past.
The Long Game (Lie to Me, Cal/Gillian, T, gonna be E soonish)
A challenge fic! Cal, Gillian, Alec and Zoe have been playing out a decade-long dance of partnerships, family, marriage, divorce and desire. When Alec passes away, the music stops and everyone is forced to see how far they've come, and what the dynamic of the future might look like. TW for drug abuse and death.

Who was the artist behind the iconic Wrinkle in Time? Newly identified!
Tumblr media
“The artist who painted that terrifying centaur-pegasus is Richard Bober. Sadly, no one seems to know what happened to the original painting. But at least Bober can now get the credit he’s long deserved.”
From his collection website:
Bober studied at the Art Students League in the early 1970s and began a successful career in commercial art around the same time. He started as a freelance medical illustrator but soon turned to creating highly detailed, heavily embellished compositions in a romantic 19th-century style that was superbly suited to mythological themes and literary fantasy.
Bober paints the old-fashioned way, using traditional techniques: multi-layers of oil paint and alkyd or acrylics glazes, on fine linen canvas or masonite, for visual effect and surface texture.
He sadly passed away in 2022, so here is a celebration of his art

So like, there’s a whole thing about interracial parentage going on in recent sci-fi?
It’s not that I mind, obviously, but it’s really interesting.
So far I’ve seen it be a thing in Fast Color, the new Wrinkle in Time movie, and now it is in Night Sky on Amazon.
And I can’t tell for sure whether it’s an unintended side effect of productions aiming for more diverse casting, or whether this is a recurring story trope that writers are aiming for, and if that’s the case what is the intent to the story (and if it’s purely that biracial people deserve representation in sci-fi, that’s great), or if it’s purely a statistical artifact of what I tend to watch... but I feel like I see more interracial families in recent sci-fi than pretty much anywhere else.

Any idea if the artist for A Wrinkle in Time is the same as A Wind in the Door?
Tumblr media
Yeah, I actually asked the podcast host about it, and she asked the Bober family -- they were very sure that it looks like his work, but they didn't have a slide of that particular artwork in his files to prove it. I agree that it's probably by Richard Bober too, though!

Random thought but is Lovecraftian uniqueness a thing?
That is, something that is so incomprehensibly unique that it defies natural language. It doesn't just need a new word, it needs an entire new language with a fundamental shift in grammar to even get in the right headspace to think about it. The best way to communicate it is to approximate it through art, yet that would be such an insulting oversimplification, like painting a sunset in monochrome on a one-dimensional canvas, or filiming a movie as a series of frames drawn in sand on a beach.
