Hello one and all. I welcome you wholeheartedly (once more) to Bellwielder, Musings of an Abhorsen-in-Training... aka, my ~~new~~ newly-redesigned livejournal. My name is Caleb, if it pleases you. I'm not entirely sure of what ~~vile and maniacal plots~~ might come of this site, other than it having a Nix-related name. *w00t* ...Since not many people really know about this journal, it will probably be a friends-only journal, but if I find you intruiging, I will add you to my friends list. Plus, I think it's easily seen that friends-only journals are much more trendy. Heh. Only joking.

Caveat: This journal will RARELY be updated... and will probably just be used for shameless commenting. Fun!
