@KimSchebler oooh fellow DnD player!! I mainly play tabaxis 😻

@sithsaravader Ohhh, awesome! My DM uses a home brew and there are no tabaxis in our realm—how sad! Three cheers for ! :)

@KimSchebler Welcome! I am a longtime member of at least a couple of hours 🤣 "In Watermelon Sugar" has to be one of the most *interesting* books I've ever read....I've read "Trout Fishing in America" too, but both very long ago.

@DavidJBackes Hahaha. Well, you've got a couple of hours on me! :) It's always nice to meet another person who's familiar with Brautigan!

@troydarling Thank you! It's lovely so far and makes me nostalgic for the early days of the internet. :)

@KimSchebler I remember those days. It felt so futuristic to be connecting with people all over the world.

@KimSchebler
Hi Kim! Nice to connect
Three cheers for literary magic!

@AlextheZee Hi Alex! Thanks! :) Yay for literary magic cheers! :)

@KimSchebler a fan of Marquez and a writer of Magical Realism? NOICE! I’ve got to try my hand at writing MR at some point. It’s an intimidating pool to jump into. Years ago, I wrote a term paper on Marquez’s use of flowers in his short stories. I love him.

@BookSmart Hahaha. I hope you try your hand at writing magical realism. If you do, holler!

That sounds like a term paper I would enjoy reading! I remember flowers being prominent in Love in the Time of Cholera too. :)

@KimSchebler That checks many of my boxes! Nice to meet you 😊

@jackheathwriter It's not often my interests check boxes! haha. Nice to meet you too, Jack! :)

@KimSchebler P.S. My buddy Gareth Ward just published a book which is perfectly at the nexus of D&D and Rick & Morty (I noticed your great patch!) batemanbooks.co.nz/product/tar
