Skittles, ancestor of modern bowling, was once played in churchyards before it was banned for “disorderly mirth.” Some said the sound of falling pins echoed like tiny thunderclaps calling rain. #FolkloreThursday

🚨SPOILER ALERT!!🚨(But it matters, we promise)

At the end of “The Tales of the Wandering Mists” we watch Lisa leave This World hand-in-hand with The Great Craftsman; but that’s not where Book 2 picks up. It picks up with a different story entirely…or at least it seems that way.

UPDATE FROM THE AUTHOR

Oleg put his career writing, teaching, and performing for children on hold to defend his country. But his heart has not forgotten its center: stories can change lives.

We believe that with all our hearts. That’s why we work in telling stories.

Thanks to Dawn for pledging $80 to become a Sentinel! Defenders of what they believe, Sentinels fight for what’s right and aid those whose intentions are pure. Are you a defender of the arts? Extended goal is funding for the full-cast production of Path Between Worlds,a kind of prologue to Book 2!
