Greetings, visitors to RenSpace.com!Blackwolf the Dragonmaster, New York City's Unofficial Wizard here! We have, at long last, reached 300 missives here in my RenSpace blog. Huzzah! Alas, 'tis a rather subdued Huzzah!, as several events have seen fit to tear apart mine inner being.
Firstly, Milady Eileen --- the Mortal called Eileen Merle-Rao --- is no longer Entertainment Coordinator for our Fort Tryon Park Medieval Festival. She learned this from dear Merdwin the Mediocre, who himself may not be able to join again us again this October, as he has done faithfully for so many seasons. In case you knowst it not, my Brother Mage hath been assign'd the duties of Hogwarts Express Conductor as part of Universal Orlando's just-opened Wizarding World of Harry Potter; I'm sure we all wish Merdwin and his Mortal-born pal Scott Payne the very best as they pursue this delicious excursion!
Meanwhile, my documentary Quite an Imagination: The Story of New York's Unofficial Wizard continues principal photography; I am hopeful that the next major set piece to be shot shall present this year's Macy*s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular from this humble Wizard's own incredible perspective! (Heh-heh!)
Nonetheless, Eileen's well-being remains my key concern; I only hope, my dears, that the situation turns in my favor so that I can continue to keep things under control as I would wish to do. I cannot afford to have people breaking my heart in ways that might prove detrimental to mine own well-being; I would ask you all, therefore, for your patience, kind thoughts and counsel (the latter two especially) as Eileen, the Medieval Festival and myself undergo what will, I fear, be a most horrifying period of adjustment.
Well, Mortals, another Friday upon us. I shan't do much typing, save to tell ye that Master Richard is also engaged in a project of his that he believes to be of importance to those of ye for whom Milord Sir Kringle meaneth all. Said project is called Santa Claus: His Life and Adventures in Photographs; and will be self-published, assuming the lad can bring together the budget and resources necessary in making such a project possible.
As for me, I will be out and about all weekend long --- especially at this Sunday's 25th Anniversary AIDS Walk New York, where, if all goes well, I shall once more find me Wizardly personage in the presence of Their Imperial Sovereign Majesties, Emperor Johannes, Lord High Monarch of Justice, Understanding, Sincerity and Tolerance; and Empress Farrah Moans, the Temptress Empress, of the Imperial Court of New York! And more, Stephen Steinberg and company will be filming my observations every step of the way, as part of my in-production documentary, Quite an Imagination: The Story of New York's Unofficial Wizard! By Merlin's beard, I can't wait to boogie down, and (of course!) fall victim to ye olde ouch factor afterwards!
Coming up, of course, Missive # 300! Pray, be ye thither!
My dear friend! I see time has served us both well. It would be such a joyous occasion if we were to have the opportunity to wine and dine in such a royal fashion. Perhaps one day in the very near future I may leave the land of fertility to venture through the Land of the Big Apple.
Be well my friend and best of luck with your motion-picture. Many blessing upon thee.
sorry friend, I haven't logged on in awhile..
i remember when i first joined renspace the archer may have stated he was the owner and he was in the process of selling the site.....now i've been known to be wrong in the past, so i may be way off base on that.
I hope things are better then when you penned them to me of late. What is this news of being hired? That sounds good. I pray it pays well for your services. I do hope your transfering of information from Geo to the new home is going well. Will you be going to Sterling Forest?
