I Knew That Sounded Familiar

If you've wondered where Takahashi's newest manga's name comes from... I have the answer! Rinne is a Buddhist term used in the poetry form Renga. It means "the name for a loop where the same theme, image, or word is repeated."

Renga is a poetry form that is best done by a gathering of four or more people. It can be highly structured, and each stanza is written on the spot. If you want to learn more about it, go here- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renga.

Only a few days left and only ONE entry to the October Obsessions challenge! C'mon folkses. Consider it a warm up for NaNoWriMo or NaPoWriMo next month.
