It began in a small town, as stories often do. It was a quiet place for the most part, a town on the Lachlan River in NSW, Australia. The town was friendly as little towns ever are to strangers, but even so when they saw certain people.. well, they believed their reasoning for not liking them on sight was justified by the odd things that seemed to follow them.

You see, the good folks of Blackridge had the unfortunate delusion that magic, for better or worse, was nothing but fiction. Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter-Is-A-God type fiction. So when things that could not be explained away by reason and science occurred, they blissfully ignored it. Because if they ignored it, who was to say it was real? Certainly no one else in the Western World could still believe in those children’s tales, could they?

So yes, they did notice Raina Tibbits when she moved into the old Williamson house just outside of the main area of town, but if you ask them they’ll deny it. Because she’s too strange for them to acknowledge her existence without admitting that perhaps those old stories aren’t as fictitious as they previously thought. And this is where we meet the lady of the hour, Miss Raina Tibbits. Or Ms, if you prefer - she never minded either way. But she’d prefer you just called her Raina.

This is my new baby, I’d appreciate if you tried it and commented, even if you don’t like it. Also, C-M itself has a new layout and I’m reordering things again. (If you comment on Moondust, please actually comment on that site, it’d be appreciated, also. Tell your friends!

It was my little sisters birthday today, so cheers to you, Lily. Not that you’ll see this, as you’re only seven at the moment - but maybe, one day you’ll care.

I’ve added my twitter to the sidebar so you can better stalk me and the blends page is half done, you can go give it a look if you fancy. For those who are new it’s here. The ones from last year are all up and have thumbnails, but the underline on the links appears to be causing a weird problem, so ignore any random looking black and/or orange lines, please.

I’m currently working on some craft projects I plan on selling. I had made a blog for that on wp.com, but thats apparently a no no so I’ll have something fixed up soon, probably. Things like hand dyed papers/OOAK* corkboards/ Goddess Dolls and such. Is there anything you think I could do that you’d like to see for sale?

On another note, someone apparently brought me paid time on Flickr. Which is weird. And I have no idea who did it.. but.. cool stuff!

Oh and mum brought me The Children of Hurin… I think thats all I have to say. *ponders*

Oh and Lea, happy birthday. Again. Despite I said so a day early.

* OOAK means ‘One Of A Kind’

PS: Okay. Maybe not. Go check out my new forums:
