| 4 of Swords |
By JGray |
I'm gearing up to begin the MotA prose side project. I'd like your help. The idea's pretty simple: each week I'll write a new part of a serialized story using a specific tarot card as inspiration. I'll be announcing the card in advance so MotA's readers have a chance to give their own thoughts and interpretations on the card's meaning and symbolism. You can comment on the journal entry or post over in the forums. Don't worry if you aren't a tarot reader. Just look at the card. What do your instincts tell you about the image? What do the elements suggest? What story does the card tell you? For this project I'll be using the Rider-Waite-Smith deck.
The first card? The 4 of Swords, shown below.

Mac from Starship Moonhawk (an excellent, science fiction webcomic you should check out) drew us a present. You can find it in the Gift Art gallery. Some warning - it is mildly NSFW. While there's no nudity there's what the kids call fan service.
I also wanted to let folks know that Order of the Arcana's official home is over on the comic's facebook page. Past strips can be found in the photo album. Strips 1 - 21 are posted now. I just put up 25 here as a vote incentive. Next week 22 - 24 will be posted. We'll be updating it regularly so check it out. Our facebook page?

| I'd spell it wrong |

This is the month I always spell incorrectly. I am, quite honestly, a terrible speller. Anyway, it is a new month and that means there's a new donation wallpaper available. It is a funny bit of William humor. I think you'll like it.
The winner for January, btw, is Gary. Congratulations! Click on the Commission Keith button up above and follow the instructions there for emailing him.
I have a question for ya'll. As you might know, I'll be doing a side project. A prose story set in the MotA multiverse and inspired, each week, by a different tarot card. My question is as follows. Would you prefer a story about a new character or would you like something staring a younger Chrys?
