Cover design has been done (yay - exciting).

Majority of manuscript has been written.  I am in the final stages of proofing before it gets sent off to a proof reader. 

However, I have been a tad distracted due to writing some essays for two anthologies - one has been accepted and that book should be heading to the printers very shortly.  The second essay (my longest thus far save for my book) is just being proofed before being sent off (fingers crossed that it will also be…

So, I took on board Allison's idea of a Book of Shadows made from a folder.  (I uploaded a pic the other day) I started to fill it yesterday and I am really happy.  My pagan path is finally starting to take shape and I'm feeling really good about it.  I think a BOS is something quite private so I wont be…

 The intention of this blog is to not only procrastinate in doing my Macroeconomics homework, but also to inform you of a recent decision that I've made.

  Over the past couple of years I have had a growing interest in Wicca, actually since I was little, but in recent years its grown exponentially. This constant growing interest led me to believe that, maybe I was supposed to be a part of it. So, in October I decided to begin my journey down its path and see where it leads.

 I am…

Actually he is not my pet, he is my substitute. My mother took him 2 days before I left for Italy, and now he is officially a family member. The strange thing is that although I return home twice a year, the kitty accepted me from the first day. Usually he hides from other people. And as for his character, he is not the friendliest cat around. He will follow you like a dog and will always be around, but you cann't touch him. He hates being cuddled and everything has to go on his terms. And…

 Would it be possible to be still considered Pagan if you were monotheistic? What about Christian witches? These are some questions I've stumbled across in the world wide web.

Lets start by tackling the subject of monotheism. 

I was doing various searches on many different Pagan traditions and came across the term monotheistic Pagan. It sounded pretty strange to me, and from what I read and researched, I have discovered that Pagans generally do not consider…

I'm new to blogging.  There's a first for everything!

I guess I am going to use this space as a kind…

I suppose if Green Witches practice magic with natural garden herbs, and Kitchen Witches practice magic with items found in the kitchen, I may have found one of my favorite magical tools. 

CRYSTALS!!!

Is there such thing as a Crystal Witch? If so, I may be one of them, for crystals are one of my favorite things to use thus far. 

I have a nice little "crystal family", as I call them. I have beautiful black river stones, I call the "Big Brothers and…

So there is a local Pagan group that meets once a week. Witches from all different practices attend, but they mostly seem to emphasize chaos  magic. 

The group is full of regulars who all consider themselves "experts". Well, my friend (her magical name is Celestial Serenity, but I'll just call her Celeste) are both new to being "witches". So of course, we have lots of questions. 

Well, today they had a Pagan Picnic. I couldn't go, because I work, but Celeste…
