On the Fringe of Darkness 
I am 33.3 Japanese (which sounds like a radio station) with that being said this Japanese poem accompanied by a magnificent watercolor painting is 100% magnificent

Wow…a book about your great-grandfather! How neat! There were only two books left in stock on Amazon, so I popped back over there and ordered it. Now, it is at the top of my TBR list. I’ll read it as soon as I finish my current read, “Children of Memory”, part three in a trilogy by Adrian Tchaikovsky.

I hate to sound like an idiot here, but what do books have to do with live-action role play? 🤷♀️

I don’t know how any of that stuff works…I could be mistaken and it’s probably not even the same author.

At the end of the day, I think that peace is what most people want…but very few achieve it.
Thank you, Sister. ❤️

For the most part, I am at peace…as long as I don’t think too deeply.
