SUMMARY:The August Patreon Fairy-Tale Salon
DESCRIPTION:Please find the info for our August Fairy-Tale Salon below! \nDate: August 7th at 7PM ET \nPrompt: What do you do when the world is scary? \nQuest: We saw a meme a few days ago that said “sometimes I really wish I were living in precedented times\,” and we felt that feel so hard. It seems like every day you turn on the TV and something new and historic and unprecedented is happening\, and it’s all just… a lot. Sometimes it’s terrifying. Sometimes it’s infuriating. Sometimes it’s just profoundly heartbreaking. What do you do when the world seems overwhelming and scary? What helps? What doesn’t? How do you find hope again? \nIf you’d like to participate\, make sure that you’re on the Salonnières tier or higher on Patreon for the month of August!

SUMMARY:The July Book Club - All in Among the Briars edited by Julia Rios
DESCRIPTION:On July 18th\, we’ll meet to discuss All In Among the Briars: An Anthology of Mythic Wonder edited by Julia Rios! \nThis anthology is really special. We contributed our poem “Twelve\,” first published in Star*Line\, and the contributors are some of the very best mythic writers out there right now – plus many students and friends of Carterhaugh! There are pieces by Terri Windling\, Theodora Goss\, C.S.E. Cooney\, Amal El-Mohtar\, Carlos Hernandez\, and so many other total all stars. Seriously\, it’s ridiculous and beautiful. \nWhat makes it really special is that it’s a benefit anthology for mythic poet queen and friend (and sometimes student) of Carterhaugh\, Jessica Wick\, who recently lost her mother. Anyone who supports the Go Fund Me for Jess (which is organized by the same team that put together the anthology) at $5+ will get the anthology as an ebook. Click here to grab your copy! \nJess is truly a cornerstone of the mythic community\, and she’s a complete sweetheart. This book is stunning. Let’s read it and make some mythic community magic!

SUMMARY:The June Book Club - The Angel of the Crows by Katherine Addison
DESCRIPTION:We’re announcing our book club pick for June early this year\, because it’s a bit of a long read (but totally worth it!) On June 27th\, we’ll meet to discuss Katherine Addison’s The Angel of the Crows\, an alternate-history fantasy inspired by Sherlock Holmes! \nHere’s the description: \n“This is not the story you think it is. These are not the characters you think they are. This is not the book you are expecting. \nIn an alternate 1880s London\, angels inhabit every public building\, and vampires and werewolves walk the streets with human beings in a well-regulated truce. A fantastic utopia\, except for a few things: Angels can Fall\, and that Fall is like a nuclear bomb in both the physical and metaphysical worlds. And human beings remain human\, with all their kindness and greed and passions and murderous intent. \nJack the Ripper stalks the streets of this London too. But this London has an Angel. The Angel of the Crows.” \nHere are some reviews: \n“A Sherlock Holmes–esque novel that truly breaks the mold […] what really makes this title stand out […] is its straightforward criticism of gender roles and the gender binary itself.” – Kirkus Reviews \n“… a charming and tender character study and a masterclass in worldbuilding. If you like carefully constructed and thoughtful urban fantasy\, this is the book for you. If you like Holmes’ stories and want a fresh perspective […] this is the book for you. If you enjoy complex\, wounded characters and superb writing\, this is the book for you.” – Fantasy Faction \nIf you would like to join us\, make sure you’re on the $7+ tier on our Patreon for the month of June!

SUMMARY:Smithsonian Associates: Beauty and the Beast - A Tale as Old as Time
DESCRIPTION:Few stories capture the imagination like “Beauty and the Beast\,” the romantic tale of a beautiful girl who sees past appearances to fall in love with a hideous monster. The story has been used to question marriages of convenience or opportunity and to champion the radical idea of marrying someone you actually like. It has also been sold as a story that promotes ideas like “if you love him\, you can change him and make him a better person\,” when “he” might be abusive\, violent\, and truly monstrous. “Beauty and the Beast” is one of the oldest fairy tales and has existed in countless forms. The beast has been everything from a snake to a god to a “small-toothed dog\,” and\, sometimes\, “Beauty” isn’t even beautiful. \nOn June 17th at 6:45PM\, folklorists Sara Cleto and Brittany Warman explore “Beauty and the Beast\,” discussing what the tale looks like around the world\, how the story has been retold in contemporary times\, and what kinds of reactionary\, rebellious\, and revolutionary points it has allowed tellers and authors to make. They explain why it has had such staying power and why so many people count it as their favorite fairy tale. The lecture also includes a few prompts for audience interaction. \nClick here to grab your tickets!

SUMMARY:Romancing the Gothic: 'O Wander Not So Far Away’ - Adapting the Brontës’ Juvenilia Through the Supernatural
DESCRIPTION:We’re doing a lecture on one of our favorite topics for the FREE online series\, Romancing the Gothic! Click here to register to come and listen to our presentation “‘O Wander Not So Far Away’: Adapting the Brontës’ Juvenilia Through the Supernatural” on June 1st\, 2024 at 4PM ET.  \nHere’s the write up –  \nIn their youth\, the Brontë siblings created several paracosms – complex imaginary worlds they could escape to through writing. Together\, they constructed elaborate visions of the Glass Town Confederacy\, Gondal\, and Angria\, lands that provided endless opportunities for worldbuilding\, collaboration\, and intrigue. Within these worlds\, the children themselves were almost gods\, self-aware creators who could raise kingdoms\, design personas and personalities\, and try on different modes of storytelling. Imagined worlds allowed the Brontë siblings freedoms unattainable in their real lives. Many scholars speculate that these early works of juvenilia were profoundly influential to the masterpieces they would later create\, including the quintessential Gothic novels Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. \nIn recent contemporary literature\, the Brontës’ juvenilia has proved a generative foundation for the creation of new supernatural portal fantasies. In these texts\, the Glass Towns\, Gondal\, and Angria are\, like Narnia\, actual places to visit\, and the Brontës themselves are drawn into complicated plots they thought were only of their own making\, characters themselves inside their worlds. These texts frequently posit a magical origin for the Brontës’ genius\, and thereby create an explanation for the powerful sense of enchantment that permeates their adult work. In this talk\, we’ll give an overview of the Brontës’ juvenilia and then explore some contemporary texts that remix it\, including Lena Coakley’s Worlds of Ink and Shadow (2016)\, Catherynne M. Valente’s The Glass Town Game (2017)\, and Isabel Greenberg’s graphic novel Glass Town (2020). From there\, we’ll discuss why this practice has become so popular and ask what it is about the Glass Towns and the Brontës that proves so irresistible to writers and readers alike. \nWe hope you join us!

SUMMARY:The May Book Club - The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner
DESCRIPTION:Our book club pick for May is Sarah Penner’s The Lost Apothecary! Get ready for some murderous ladies\, y’all. \nHere’s the description: \n“Hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London\, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientele. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But the apothecary’s fate is jeopardized when her newest patron\, a precocious twelve-year-old\, makes a fatal mistake\, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries. \nMeanwhile in present-day London\, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell spends her tenth wedding anniversary alone\, running from her own demons. When she stumbles upon a clue to the unsolved apothecary murders that haunted London two hundred years ago\, her life collides with the apothecary’s in a stunning twist of fate—and not everyone will survive.” \nAnd here’s what people are saying about it: \n“The Lost Apothecary is a poisonously good read… An enthralling work of mystery\, murder\, trust\, and betrayal. Set in an atmospheric London\, Penner’s immersive story flows skillfully from past to present\, revealing the heartaches and lost dreams of three captivating main characters in a page-turningly tense drama that surprises right up until the final paragraph.” — NPR \n“Spellbinding… Like in a well-brewed potion\, all the ingredients have been given exactly the right level of care and time\, and the result is a novel that simply overwhelms with its delicate spell.”  — Bookpage \n“Enthralling… Musical prose… A completely absorbing story of the power of secrets and finding one’s way.” — Historical Novel Review\, A Best Book of the Month Pick \nIf you would like to join us on May 23rd at 7PM ET\, make sure you’re on the $7+ tier on our Patreon for the month of May!

SUMMARY:The April Book Club - A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
DESCRIPTION:Our book club pick for April is A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers!! This solar/hope-punk novella was recommended to us a while back\, and once we read it we realized it was perfect for our students (especially if you loved Enchant!) \n“Chambers’ writing is always tender and healing\, but this book has something else braided into it ― something more… This is a book that\, for one night\, made me stop asking ‘what am I even for?’ I’m prescribing a preorder to anyone who has ever felt lost. Stunning\, kind\, necessary.” ― Sarah Gailey \n“I read this book in one sitting when I was having a really wretched day\, and it helped. It felt like a warm cup of tea made by someone who loves me. It’s a soft hug of a book\, and it says ‘It’s okay if you’re not okay right now.’ It made me cry the good sort of tears―the sort when someone is unexpectedly kind to you at the moment you need it most.” ― Alexandra Rowland \n“A joyful experience and\, as with all of Chambers’s books\, I was left with a warm\, fuzzy feeling inside.” ― New Scientist \nOur meeting will be on Monday\, April 29th at 7PM ET. If you want to join us\, make sure you’re at a $7+ tier on Patreon for the month! \nCan’t make it live? The replay will be available right after the meeting takes place!

SUMMARY:The March Book Club - The Secret Book of Flora Lea by Patti Callahan Henry
DESCRIPTION:Our book club pick for March is The Secret Book of Flora Lea by Patti Callahan Henry!! We don’t want to give too much away about this one\, so we’ll just let these blurbs win you over -> \n“In this gorgeous ode to books and storytellers\, Patti Callahan Henry shows that literature lives inside us\, and can unite us despite the odds. Through war\, young love\, a sister’s remorse\, and a mysterious land called Whisperwood\, I was torn between savoring each word and tearing through the pages to learn what happened next. Pure magic!” — Janet Skeslien Charles \n“A spellbinding tale of hope and perseverance\, The Secret Book of Flora Lea is as enchanting and whimsical as the Whisperwood fairytale hidden within its pages. It reminds us that a happily-ever-after isn’t out of reach—so long as we heed the tiny voice within\, whispering that the real magic of the story may be closer than we think.” — Sarah Penner \nCONTENT WARNING: This novel includes discussion of child disappearance and death\, war\, and profound loss. \nAlso – If you like audiobooks\, you might want to listen to this one! Brittany purchased it that way\, and it’s REALLY well done! \nOur meeting will be on Thursday\, March 28th at 7PM ET. If you want to join us\, make sure you’re at a $7+ tier on Patreon for the month! \nCan’t make it live? The replay will be available right after the meeting takes place!

SUMMARY:The March Patreon Fairy-Tale Salon
DESCRIPTION:Please find the info for our March Fairy-Tale Salon below! \nDate: March 21st at 7PM ET \nPrompt: Tell us one or two small things you’re grateful for \nQuest: When people typically think about gratitude\, it’s for the big things in life: your family\, your health\, your career. But what about all the little things that just help make each day worth living? What about the silly coffee mug that makes you smile every time you see it\, or the neighbor’s cat whose grumpy face delights you even though you don’t know his name\, or the particularly peaceful way that the sun shines through your curtains each day around 4PM? If you’re actively being dragged down constantly by all of the awful in the world\, it’s even more important to shore up your sanity\, strength\, and sparkle so that you can A) not be miserable\, and B) actually have the ability to DO something about all of the miserable things! And sometimes\, that involves recognizing the little things. This month\, we’d like to know one or two very small things in your life that you’re extremely grateful for. \nIf you’d like to participate\, make sure that you’re on the Salonnières tier or higher on Patreon for the month of March!

DESCRIPTION:Our Book Club pick for the romantic month of February is The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen! \n“Romantic\, wildly creative\, and utterly charming\, The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy is a fantasy unlike any I’ve read before.” – Lana Harper \n“If Lewis Carroll and Nora Ephron teamed up to write a magical Western\, this would be the result.

SUMMARY:University of Cambridge: "'Add a Sword' Feminism and Fairy Tales"
DESCRIPTION:The Cambridge Research Network for Fairy-Tale Studies is pleased to invite you to an online lecture by award-winning folklorists\, teachers\, and writers Dr. Sara Cleto and Dr. Brittany Warman. The event is free and will take place on Zoom on 21 February 2024 at 5.00-6.30 pm (UK time zone). \nHave you ever wondered why Alice was suddenly wearing full armor and a sword in the Tim Burton live action adaptation? Or why Snow White was tasked with leading an army in Snow White and the Huntsman? In this talk\, Drs. Sara Cleto and Brittany Warman of The Carterhaugh School will explore the trend of ‘Add a Sword’ feminism\, the phenomenon in which traditionally feminine heroines are equipped with swords and recast as military leaders in fairy-tale adaptations\, especially film. What does this trend have to say about gender in fairy tales? About the composition of heroism? What are the benefits and costs of this trend in storytelling\, and what other possibilities are currently out there? \nRegistration link: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/cambridgefairytalenetwork/1155082 \nDr. Sara Cleto and Dr. Brittany Warman are award-winning folklorists\, teachers\, and writers with a combined 26 years in higher education and over one hundred publications. Together\, they founded The Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic\, teaching creative souls how to re-enchant their lives through folklore and fairy tales. In 2019\, Carterhaugh won the Dorothy Howard Award from the American Folklore Society. When they aren’t teaching at Carterhaugh\, they are scholars\, writers and best friends who have published peer-reviewed articles\, appeared on podcasts\, sold stories and poems\, written book introductions and encyclopedia entries\, and written for magazines and blogs. (They’ve also been known to crush “Total Eclipse of the Heart” at karaoke.) Sara and Brittany also deliver sold-out lectures at venues like the Smithsonian\, the Profs & Pints series\, the Maryland Renaissance Festival\, the Contemporary American Theater Festival\, and FaerieCon. \nLooking forward to seeing you on 21 February!

SUMMARY:The February Patreon Fairy Tale Salon
DESCRIPTION:Hi everyone! Here is the info for our February Fairy-Tale Salon –  \nDate: February 20th at 7PM ET \nPrompt: Fairy-Tale Love \nQuest: What’s your favorite example of fairy-tale love? What makes true love in a story feel real to you? We’ve lectured a lot in the past about how the classic fairy tales don’t actually feature a lot of romantic love (at least not the kind of romantic love WE’D like to be part of!) but love exists in many forms. Maybe you really resonate with the love between Brother and Sister in the tale of the same name\, or the love of the Bremen Town Musicians for each other\, or the deep love Snow White and Rose Red’s mother shows for her daughters. Perhaps it’s the love for love itself shown by the nightingale in Oscar Wilde’s “The Nightingale and the Rose\,” or maybe it truly is a romance\, like the love that grows between Beauty and her Beast. For this most romantic of months\, let’s talk about it! \nIf you’d like to participate\, just make sure that you’re on the Salonnières tier or higher for the month of February – see you soon!

SUMMARY:The January Book Club - A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik
DESCRIPTION:We’ve been spending all this time debating whether Naomi Novik’s A Deadly Education counted as Dark Academia or not that we decided we should open it up to the book club to decide its fate! It’s our January pick and\, Dark Academia or not\, we love it and can’t wait to talk to you about it! \nHere’s the official description: \n“A Deadly Education is set at Scholomance\, a school for the magically gifted where failure means certain death (for real) — until one girl\, El\, begins to unlock its many secrets. \nThere are no teachers\, no holidays\, and no friendships\, save strategic ones. Survival is more important than any letter grade\, for the school won’t allow its students to leave until they graduate… or die! The rules are deceptively simple: Don’t walk the halls alone. And beware of the monsters who lurk everywhere. \nEl is uniquely prepared for the school’s dangers. She may be without allies\, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out millions. It would be easy enough for El to defeat the monsters that prowl the school. The problem? Her powerful dark magic might also kill all the other students.” \nAnd here’s what people are saying about it: \n“Novik deliciously undoes expectations about magic schools\, destined heroes\, and family legacies. A gorgeous book about monsters and monstrousness\, chockablock with action\, cleverness\, and wit.” – Holly Black \n“Hilarious and wild! Take any fictional magic school\, make it as over-the-top dangerous as possible\, and populate it with a bunch of snarky teenagers; the result is pure batshit fun.” – N. K. Jemisin \n“The dark school of magic I’ve been waiting for.” – Katherine Arden \nIf you would like to join us\, make sure you’re on the $7+ tier on our Patreon for the month of January! Our meeting will be January 25th at 7PM ET!

DESCRIPTION:Hi all!

SUMMARY:The December Book Club - Saint Death's Daughter by C.S.E. Cooney
DESCRIPTION:So you know all those requests we’ve had to read C.S.E. Cooney’s Saint Death’s Daughter? Well we (and Claire!) heard you\, and we’re seriously thrilled that Claire has offered to come to book club LIVE on December 18th at 7PM ET to talk about her gorgeous book! (Inside and out. LOOK at that cover!) \nSaint’s Death Daughter just won the 2023 World Fantasy Award (holy smokes!!)\, and it’s a truly beautiful\, wildly creative\, joyful book. It’s also a glorious CHONK\, so we recommend getting started on it early. \nHave questions for Claire? Email them us at theprofs@carterhaughschool.com ! \nHere’s a description to whet your appetite: \n“Nothing complicates life like Death.  \nLanie Stones\, the daughter of the Royal Assassin and Chief Executioner of Liriat\, has never led a normal life. Born with a gift for necromancy and a literal allergy to violence\, she was raised in isolation in the family’s crumbling mansion by her oldest friend\, the ancient revenant Goody Graves. \nWhen her parents are murdered\, it falls on Lanie and her cheerfully psychotic sister Nita to settle their extensive debts or lose their ancestral home—and Goody with it. Appeals to Liriat’s ruler to protect them fall on indifferent ears… until she\, too\, is murdered\, throwing the nation’s future into doubt.\nHunted by Liriat’s enemies\, hounded by her family’s creditors and terrorised by the ghost of her great-grandfather\, Lanie will need more than luck to get through the next few months—but when the goddess of Death is on your side\, anything is possible.” \nAnd here’s what people are saying about it: \n“C. S. E. Cooney is one of the most moving\, daring\, and plainly beautiful voices to come out of recent fantasy. She’s a powerhouse.” — Catherynne M. Valente\, NYT-bestselling author of the Fairyland novels \n“A delicious stew of science fiction\, horror\, and fantasy\, marked by unforgettable characters who plumb the depths of pathos and triumph.” — Publishers Weekly\, starred review \n“Memorable prose propelled by extraordinary ideas… Twisted genius!” — Locus Magazine \nAnd so continues our run of books about (gentle) necromancy! Thank you again SO MUCH to Claire for joining us – if YOU would like to join us\, make sure you’re on the $7+ tier on our Patreon for the month of December!

SUMMARY:The September Book Club - Tales from the Hinterland by Melissa Albert
DESCRIPTION:Our book club pick for September is Melissa Albert’s collection of unsettling fairy tales\, Tales from the Hinterland! \n“Lush and deliciously sinister fairytales to be consumed as greedily as Turkish delight or any fairy fruit. I loved these.” ― Kelly Link \n“The writing is as spare and precise as poetry\, connected to the darker\, edgier elements of fairy-tale conventions. Albert’s rich and tightly focused collection forms the core of the mythology created in her novels\, and her fans will be thrilled at this further glimpse into that world.” ― Booklist\, starred review \nOur meeting will be on Thursday\, September 21st at 7PM ET. If you want to join us\, make sure you’re at a $7+ tier on Patreon for the month of September! \nCan’t make it live? The replay will be available right after the meeting takes place!

SUMMARY:The August Book Club - Glass Town by Isabel Greenberg
DESCRIPTION:Our Book Club pick for the month of August is Glass Town: The Imaginary World of the Brontës by Isabel Greenberg – our first graphic novel!! We adored this thoughtful story about stories (and of course it doesn’t hurt that it’s about our beloved Brontë siblings!) \n“Greenberg pulls Glass Town and its characters directly from the Brontës’ juvenilia\, giving readers a look into the early creativity of an iconic literary family with a playful visual style that captures the Brontës’ enthusiasm as they discover what fiction can do.” — AV Club \n“This lyrical\, endlessly inventive book will appeal equally to lovers of history\, literature\, and metatextual fantasy.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) \nOur meeting will be on Tuesday\, August 29th at 7PM ET. If you want to join us\, make sure you’re at a $7+ tier on Patreon for the month of August :). \nCan’t make it live? The replay will be available right after the meeting takes place!
