Everybody who comes here knows that Mrs. LFM and I use a scythe to mow the part of our yard that we actually want to be able to see over. Since I taught her to use it early this summer, our Austrian Scythe has become her favourite tool, and so now we need to acquire […]

The current slate of projects has been keeping me away more than anticipated, so I feel you all deserve a preview of things to come. The Book of Dark Sentiments, being a collection of skullduggery gleaned from previous incarnations of my LFM Dark Sentiments series combined with previously unseen work, is very near completion.
