Pagans, Who Knew? Magic In The Most Unusual Places.

So, yesterday was one of those strange days. It was my older brother, Eddie (from the Saga) birthday, so I wished him a magical day. Lisa was working, so the General had left the camp. Bedlam was in the care of the inmates. I took care of some minor chores, after having had a productive […]

Star Gazing – Write What You Know

About half way into TWA, the first night that Jimmy and Gina arrive at the WITSEC safe house in NoCo that would become Casa Claire, the now on the run couple sit outside on their back deck for the first time sipping wine while Jimmy narrates the night sky constellations he had taught himself in […]
