HardFork is a very exciting notion and I have recently become a fan of your work (as I slowly catch up on True Detective and finally watch The Purge)
Your backstory is even more interesting and inspiring. You're like the guy in the recipe for dragon soup who actually completed Step 1 i.e. "First you must catch your dragon."
I love the idea of dragon soup and the metaphor you bring to mind. Can you send me the recipe?
Hehehehe, I believe you used the dragon metaphor first 😀
As for the dragon soup thing, I have no idea where I came across it. Probably in some old novel that isn't indexed on Google Book Search.
