Hey Irene;
I was searching around and saw somewhere that you knew a little bit about tarot (I'm a horrible speller, forgive me...at least, I think I spelt that wrong) cards. Being an occult/mystery/horror (with lots of other genres thrown in) writer who loves anything like that, I'd be so greatful if you could just...explain it for me. Plus, I need to know for a part of or two in the novel I'm working on now. Feel free to decline; it's just hard getting a good resource via internet...for me anyways.
aww, I want of thos! My husban would kill me tho, I bough a netbook and an E-Cig this month, I swear he almost had a baby cow...
I do, I love tarot. I would not say im any good at it. I Just do reading for my family and friends.

I have Legacy of the Divine Tarot. I have wanted to get my hands on Revelations Tarot, by Zach Wong. But i refuse to pay 200 dollars for the desk :-/
If you don't mind me asking what tarot desk do you use
Thank you Irene. Very helpful critique and I will certainly use your suggestions in my revisions.
Thanks for reading and commenting on ANATHEMA--I think you're quite right about most of what you said, and that's going to be super helpful during edits.
Hello Irene, thanks so much for visiting and giving my story a read I appreciate the kind feedback.

It's definitely a fairy tale type story -ha- which I don't think I'm doing a good enough job of getting across

I've read a chapter of yours, and contrary to what I said in my critique I read the whole chapter {its just late here and I didn't know if Id have the mental to give it credit, but I did} and I'm hooked so I'll be back. I admire the smoothness of your voice, and the quirkiness.
i have found you and i have buddied you on nano.
hey, irene--
good to see you!! seems like it's been a while.
looking forward to catching up on your "kindness" chapter--i'm doing the nano, too. i'm "lala68" on the nano site, if you'd like to buddy up and cheer each other along.
And where have you been, Missy? Thanks for the comment. Looking forward to more from you. Non illegitimus carborundum.
