How long does it usually take you all to cast spells? Specifically from start to finish. Start being from the time you sit down to cast to the time you do the closing.

So... Is it still the norm to say that putting your own blood in a targeted spell will actually cast the spell on the caster? Even with protection? Is casting protection the way to make it "power" your spell and hit the target? Or is it completely fine if it's working for "you"? Could some people in fact use blood in targeted spells and get the benefits of power while others feel the effects intended for someone else? I'm genuinely curious. Every now and again, someone will come out of the blue saying how their spells work with the power of their own blood but even though it's usually preached not to do that, all the people who preach not doing it somehow missed reading that thread. They must have because they're nowhere to be found to say not to use your own blood in a targeted spells. Opinions anyone?

For reference, this is the thread I'm speaking of.
