Charmed, I'm Sure

The cackle of crows flapping overhead startles you out of your reverie. You look around to find yourself surrounded by trees and the heavy scent of rain. The dirt path beneath your feet leads your eyes to a knarled wooden gate just a few steps in front of you. A dense ivy plant covers the fence either side of the gate, and its leaves are shaking a little in the breeze - you almost feel that they are waving to you.

A dry cough tears your gaze away from the friendly leaves as you suddenly notice a tall & spindly FIGURE staring at you from between the bars of the gate.

The FIGURE gives a quiet, rustling laugh, like dry leaves.

I'm quite new to the indie web but have been watching everyone have fun on it for some time now, and recently I just got Far Too Sad about social media and decided making this site might make me feel better. So far I think I was right!

I do hope you have as much fun as I do poking around here - I have so many exciting things I want to add!
Thank you very much for stopping by ^-^
