WELCOME TO THE PISCEAN PALACE!


Please forgive the above representation of me. I didn't like the setup of the painting, and it shows. I don't normally wear bikini-tops or g-strings, and I couldn't give a fig about an acorn. I think the painter and PatrickB-new biz with MissBee must have had a great laugh over it. I got a nice bonus for posing, though, so that's all I care about.

Oh, yeah, I'm Shayella Fernleaf, official receptionist and herald of the Piscean Palace. I'm a glade sprite.

You are here because you are interested in learning more about our proprietor PatrickB-new biz with MissBee and his writing. Somewhere in his deranged mind he decided that folders and item-numbers weren't good enough, so he created an entire palace devoted to his existence on Writing.Com. Good thing, too, or I wouldn't be here. I know what you're thinking. It must be strange to know that you only winked into existence a short time ago, but I assure you it's not strange at all. My creator has gifted me with a birthday, a birthplace, a childhood, parents, siblings, a robust body and mind, and enough memories (both good and bad) for me to reminisce about until the sun explodes. How do you know the same thing didn't happen to you last Tuesday? Are you sure? Give it some thought ...

I have been given the honor of compiling and editing the first edition of the Piscean Palace Visitor's Manual, a task I do not take lightly. PatrickB-new biz with MissBee has locked himself in the Musatorium for a few days creating maps of the more important areas of the palace for you to enjoy. Also, some of the staff have been asked to write a short description of their domains to be included along with the maps.

Our proprietor has asked me to urge you to drop by the Gift Shop and sign the guest register. He doesn't know you were here unless you let him know!




We would also like to encourage you to complete a "hunt slip" for the Piscean Palace Scavenger Hunt. This fun activity gives you a chance to earn GPs and a merit badge! Please see the details of the activity here:

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL


Okay, so the best way to use this is to imagine each room or chamber of the Piscean Palace as a folder in PatrickB-new biz with MissBee 's portfolio. Below each short description are the links to each of his items and images, as well as a sneak peek of what might be. Don't put too much count in these sneak peeks, however, for like all artists, our proprietor is fickle sometimes. He says all the time: "Oh, the muse is tickling! I must go!" and he runs like a maniac to the Musatorium only to come out in an hour looking forlorn and drained. When we ask what he was creating, he only shrugs and says: "Nothing. My muse got bored." I don't have the heart to tell him that that just sounds bad ...

Anyway, it really is unnecessary now to use PatrickB-new biz with MissBee 's Writing.Com portfolio, unless during normal site navigation. What he recommends is favoriting this document and using it to link to all his other documents. This edition will be updated with any additions into his portfolio.

This manual is divided into (7) sections: the Piscean Palace Gift Shop, the Great Library, the Vestibule, the Hall of Honor, the Piscean Palace Common Room, Molly's Academy, and the Musatorium
