Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
Yes. Forget what it was called. It was too long ago.

I'm not sure if anyone knows of the artist but my favorite art is a series known as the Unicorn Tapestries. They are hung in a very beautiful room in the Cloisters in NY City. They have a sort of haunting quality to them; ghost like, captivating.
