“How can you take it, when the people that say they are close. That say they care about you lie to you and be deceitful? Route; Know that you are worth more than how they treat you. Know that with these characters, their face and identity may change. But they still fall into a default card. From the major arcana deck. Affirmation; Grieve and move on”

“KNOW, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars—Nemedia, Ophir, Brythunia, Hyperborea, Zamora with its dark-haired women and towers of spider-haunted mystery, Zingara with its chivalry, Koth that bordered on the pastoral lands of Shem, Stygia with its shadow-guarded tombs, Hyrkania whose riders wore steel and silk and gold. But the proudest kingdom of the world was Aquilonia, reigning supreme in the dreaming west. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen- eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet."—The Nemedian Chronicles”

“Carlo Levare (ok, a little weird writing in 3rd person) writes books because talking to himself in public is “frowned upon.” Indie author, professional overthinker, and part‑time philosopher of grocery store checkout lines. Powered by dark humor, lukewarm coffee, and the belief that every life crisis deserves at least one punchline. When he’s not revising sentences that were perfectly fine the first twelve times, he’s wandering Colorado pretending it’s “research.” Known for turning everyday disasters into literary therapy and insisting that deadlines are merely “suggestions with attitude.” Carlo’s stories blend heart, grit, and the kind of honesty that makes relatives shift uncomfortably at holidays. His readers laugh, cry, and occasionally text him “are you okay,” which he considers a rave review.”
