A Ridiculously Random Recap! Pre-ASC

Ah, the Ridiculously Random Recap!  Why the name?  Because it's a recap.  And it's random (ridiculously so).  There is no rhyme, reason or rationale, reference its recurring release.  Also, alliterations are almost always adored by able, yet addled daemons!

We have a few things to report in case you missed it on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram ...etc and elsewhere!

Welcome to Issue 4!  This is sort of a pre-game recap/run-up to AllSoulsCon! We are covering from the 8th of August, 2015 through today, with a look ahead of what is going on in the All Souls Universe from today and beyond!  Deborah Harkness events will be listed on the bottom of this post.  Let's do this!

1. Fandom News

AllSoulsCon:

You virtual pass holders won't be there in person, but you are in for some special treats! In your virtual goody bag will be great items from The All Souls Podcast, A Feast for All Souls and FetchGoodyAlsop!  Also, you are going to be the only ones eligible for some really great online contests, including ours!  All of this will be available with the purchase of your virtual pass.

•  Listen to Beethoven’s Cello Sonata no. 1 in F Major. - The second piece Matthew played for Jack to bring him down from his blood rage.  This piece was meant for the cello and piano; "Beethoven had written the piece for piano as well as for cello, but Matthew hoped Jack was familiar enough with the music to fill in the missing notes." ~ The Book of Life
