I wrote a novel

Count me as one of the many people who would be interested in reading your favourite story.

Linked above. “Kintsugi.”

I loved the idea of repairing breaks in time just like a Kintsugi artist.

In my younger days, I would repair road cracks with tar. Very similar work, but what it left behind was smelly and ugly. I love it when a repair makes something more beautiful because of the flaws.
