Reading the Craft Sequence makes me wish silver tattoo ink existed.

@starkatt Nice. :) I've only read the first two (by pub date) Probably gonna read Full Fathom Five really soon now.

@starkatt Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, I'm just having to space them out. With my spirituality, these are rough reading sometimes.
