#WombatFriday: Lizzie Siddal, Valentine’s, Friday the 13th

Happy  Wombat Friday!  You can follow Pre-Rapahelite Sisterhood on Facebook and Twitter.

This week our hero the wombat appears with two book recommendations:

A Curl of Copper and Pearl

Wednesday marked the anniversary of Elizabeth Siddal’s death.  In Dim Phantoms I talk about the Pre-Raphaelite painter, poet, and model and share related links.
