I bought my first deck in 2010. Shortly afterward, I wound up paying for a membership at one of the more prominent message boards for tarot readers. I also had friends learning tarot out in the real world.
Some of them gave me the advice that worked for them, but not very well for me. I appreciate the time they took and the help they offered.

I have been reading for myself since 2010. At first, I used the cards as a creative aid to write short horror fiction at Dark Arcanum. I loved (and still kind of love) horror movies, I had briefly been writing for a video game (it went poorly), and I wanted to keep going. Those aren't stories I usually feel great about these days.
