I am so excited about your book, and that is insane about the shard of glass. Isn’t it amazing what we can get used to?

Wow, that was a trippy experience just reading it! I had a little Miguel of my own on my wrist several years ago. It eventually went away. No pus, no drama, no story.😁

Wonderful, Anna!💕

Wow! The body is incredible, though I would not have been so composed for the eruption of Miguel. Congratulations on the book! It’s been fun getting a taste of it here.

Thanks Stephanie. As far as being composed, I wasn't quite in my right mind so...

This is so very good. That rather long sentences inspired me to read.

So Mrs Dalloway, said Emily Dickinson, to write a multiple paragraphs (for her pages) sentence.

Your writing is captivating. Miguel exploding must have been euphoric. What a release and rebirth.

Brava!

Jealous, Anna. I first heard of mescaline in the late 1970s, reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. I live in a rainy land of no peyote so it was another ten years before I got my hands of some imported stuff. I was drunk and the experience bore no resemblance to yours. I'll buy the book!

Thanks Anna! I only took it once but the sun was shining fortunately.

Holy high balls, Anna! And I thought I’d been rather bonkers back in the day! Didn’t ex-Miguel need stitches?
