Do you see the cobbles on the streets? Everywhere you look, stone & rock. Can you imagine what it feels like to reach down with your bones & feel the living stones? The city is built on itself, all the cities that came before. Can you imagine how it feels to lie down on an ancient flagstone & feel the power of the rock buoying you up against the tug of the world? And that's where witchcraft begins. The stones have life, & I'm part of it. - adapted from Terry Pratchett

Tattoos
Are all of my tattoos exactly as I would like them to be? No. But I don't regret them. I will never regret them. They all have special significance to me personally, some as souvenirs and some as reminders. People always ask the what if question: what if you regret it?
And that's the key: to make damn well sure you don't regret what you do. Think it out beforehand and act with a certain assurance. Too often people post on forums that they've cast a spell and now regret it and how do they change it. Tattoos are another example of this kind of action: it isn't literally permanent for eternity, but it's very difficult to undo. If you walk into the studio, point at the wall, and say, 'I'll have that one,' you get what you deserve. Just as you do with a spell.
