Greetings, Alex and welcome to KW. Glad that you joined and here's hoping that your health allows you to discuss these great books with us for decades to come!Alex wrote:Hello all! My name is Alex and I'm currently living in Salem OR. I haven't read the books that this forum is dedicated to. I came here because of the Stephen C McKinney Memorial thread that Furls Fire set up. I'm a gay man living with AIDS and that thread speaks volumes to me. It was suggested that I introduce myself here, so...Hi!
I'm glad to be here and I hope to get to know you all.

Thank you AJK, Wayfriend and Hearthrall for the welcome and well wishes! Tracie was right, the people here are really nice. Thanks again!
Sweet peace come to me
Calm the chaos churning within
Sweet Jesus enwrap me
Enlighten my heart so dim
My soul seeks Thee
In breathless desperation it cries
Sweet Jesus enwrap me
As my body slowly dies...

I've actually read the first 2 chapters of Lord Foul's Bane. Not exactly easy to read, but I like what I've read so far. I can kind of identify with this Covenant guy already.
You can also try listening to the full read of Fouls Bane. Scott Brick did the read and it is wonderful. I read them and listen to them when I'm driving (and driving)and get different things from the different approaches.
Scott has a website where you can get the first trilogy a (but not the second YET)

Hey sweetie!! Glad you posted here!



And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.
~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~
~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~
...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

Hey there, Dear Lady. 
Thanks for the link Lorin. Sounds cool, bit spendy for me though. Unfortunately.

I always tell people that if they can get past what happened to Lena, and keep going...they won't regret it. This is one of the best stories ever written! 
Keep reading Alex!

You are going to love Foamfollower!!! 

For Myles--
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
For Mom--
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly...fly high against the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you
The wind beneath my wings

um, hi.
Hello everyone. I'm not actually a new member, but it's been so long since i posted, it kind of feels like it. I'm most eager to be back and I look forward to reaquainting myself with this wonderful site. (That is, if you'll have me? I did just sort of cut and run, admittedly)
