Wotcher! The weekend's nearly over; I hope you folks have had a good one! For any of you facing impending Monday morning work-time blues, Tala (#67) is here to offer you a little bit of escapism. Wouldn't it be wonderful if, instead of being up at the crack of dawn for your regular city commute, you were off for a misty morning forest walk? :3



Throw open the door of the Advent Calendar (edit: woops, forgot to link this all handy-like) up 'til August 12th, 11:59pm and you'll discover Tala's Misty Forest Background waiting for you on the other side! There's probably considerably less chance of you being hunted by a White Witch, too, which can only be a plus.

Thank you, Tala!


Segsworth (#32258) is the winner of my 'Share Your Favourite Book' random draw! Congratulations! Segsworth recommended The Lies of Locke Lamora, which I picked up today-- along with a couple others! I read as many of your comments as I could and went out armed with a huge list of books that piqued my interest. In hindsight I absolutely must apologise for asking you guys to only pick one... that was pretty mean of me. ;)


I wanted to give you all a heads-up that I will be on vacation and potentially without internet access from August 14th to September 2nd (now you know why I pick-pocketed your brains for books!). The lovely Sennara will be looking after the custom item queue and fielding your questions in the event I cannot do so myself, so please be kind to her. :3 You may of course continue to PM me during this time, but be aware you may not receive a reply!

whip crack went his...

... and the beast was done.

Custom item people still waiting on CIP refunds so that you may put your items through the snazzy new queue - now's your turn to bump your PMs! Go go gooooo! *awkward unattractive flailing*



What you didn't know about me is that I am a cat, with most excellent taste in sunglasses, and a penchant for fantasy.
Merci beaucoup, et au revoir!

Aww Vis. You're so cute! Ah.. Sadly you can go wrong with The Sword of Truth. Have you seen the tv series? *shudders* Books are awesome though ^-^

You'll definitely enjoy Good Omens if you like humour. It's one of my favourites to reread when I need a book that doesn't take itself too seriously. <3

The Redemption of Althalus was a horrible book, you could definitely tell that David Eddings was starting to go a little senile with that one... its a shame he was one of my favorite authors as well, But still love the Balgariad and the Ellenium series though.
