Harper

Tim Nokes

A strange set of names, brought together. Obviously, young Tim has not yet earned his surname, so we have no idea what he would become and thus be named. One wonders. No matter what, one is sure, were one to think on it, that whatever occupation he chooses, he would grace it.

So I am left asking the question, if I have been to the edges of Faerie, and I would like to think to think that I have, allowed to be taken there by Tolkien and Lewis and MacDonald; have I graced my circumstance with a shadow of its riches? I feel and think that I could have done better. I suppose there is still time.

It's strange to look in this "mirror". Have you ever done it? What do you see?
