It’s still cold, but the girls on this site continue to do a sterling job warming things up. Time for some Hopeful love, because, as Yes once memorably sang, without hope you cannot start the day…
We’ll start in the kitchen, I think. This is a logical choice when it comes to heat. Whether you can stand it in @Cassiemarie’s kitchen remains to be seen.

December???
Goodness me! How on earth did that happen?
Well, where I live the ground sparkles with frost, the air bites the throat as it slips down to cool the lungs, I’ve had to buy some scrapers for the car windscreen and I’ve now just realised that the heater in the office keeps on cutting out randomly for no reason that I can tell. Hmmm....

So. More hopefuls.
I put up my previous post a couple of days ago and almost as soon as I did, a ton of astonishingly good hopeful sets dropped and I just had to do a follow-up round-up. It’s tempting to shake your fist angrily at the capricious gods of SG, but that would be silly. They are being supremely generous, after all. It’s not...

This post is going to be a bit more in-depth than my usual round-up posts. Partly because I've got the time to be more in-depth, but mostly because there are certain sets that positively demand you linger over them, savour them and, once the initial impact fades a little, try and work out exactly why they work so well.

As it happens, the last...

The late Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun continues to amaze, impress and bewilder in more or less equal measure. Erudite and richly written, the series has sunk its hooks into me and is currently making me curse the fact that I have to work for a living. I've just started the second book, 'Claw of the Conciliator'. It's set in a future so...

Anyone else watching 'Dark'? That weird German time-travelling psychological mindfuckfest on Netflix? Because maybe you should...
Autumn is coming! Yes, I know. It doesn't quite have the same ring, does it? Anyway, if the weather we're currently experiencing in the UK is anything to go by, autumn is actually here. And pretty miserable it is, too: rain, damp, huge puddles, overflowing drains, rain, falling leaves turning to mulch and, well, rain.
So it's a good job this site exists. And it...

Well, the site goes from strength to strength and I find myself once more inspired to highlight four of the recent hopeful sets that have wowed, enchanted and hooked me. Below is a partial list. It's always partial, because the site puts out so many amazing sets it's simply impossible to keep up with them all. Anyhoo, here we go...
First up is @jases whose...
