This is based on a blog piece titled It’s all in the frame by Laurie Wagner. I think she said it was a line of dialogue one of her friends said.

It was time to say goodbye…
This is a line invented by Laurie in response to the poem I Save My Love by Marjorie Saiser. It was time to say goodbye. I have not said much goodbye that sticks in the mind. Then again I tend to be forgetful. Out of sight, out of mind, as my best friend once saidContinue reading “It was time to say goodbye…”

Estella’s voice came over the intercom. “Seems Hue’s upgrades have given us a massive speed boost, we’ll be there in a matter of hours, compared to the couple days our previous trip took.” “Impressive, let’s hope the upgrades don’t cause additional wear on ship components, getting spare parts this far out won’t be easy, asideContinue reading “Adventures aboard the Chen Xing- Chapter 28”

Fantasy Venom’s Taste by Lisa Smedman I haven’t read a Forgotten Realms novel for quite some while ever since they turned the whole from high magic to low.

This isContinue reading “Moonlake’s Book Discoveries- September 2023”
Adventures aboard the Chen Xing- Chapter 28
“Whatever he’s doing it seems thought out.” Aurora told me with a shrug. I had no idea what she was talking about but I followed her gaze. A small part of Vines was doing something to a panel with some tools. H squared came wandering past. The rest of Vines was covering him down toContinue reading “Adventures aboard the Chen Xing- Chapter 28”
A few reasons I said no/yes…
I couldn’t remember from which poem the starting line was inspired from but I took a line invented by Laurie Wagner instead of from the poem. A few reasons I said no: I don’t want it, I’m mostly past the stage of yielding to common courtesy I have my doubts and my interest is notContinue reading “A few reasons I said no/yes…”
