So Much New
So much so, actually. Interesting thing, I was going to say "funny" but I don't think that's the word. As introductions go, this one is not so great. I would know, I have a degree in making sure I know when introductions are bad. Doesn't really stop me, though. The thing that's not quite funny? …
Forgotten Realms is My Philosophy…Apparently.
