Hi, all, and thanks!! I write a lot of stuff that has been published, and most of the fantasy movies I write about have to do with werewolves and people who take potions to live forever, and who worries about whether the readership really believes in those? It does not matter. But in the case of devils and such, some people do believe in those and I don't wish to appear condescending.
