Dear Diotima,
Staying up till past 1.30 am reading vampire fiction is not a good idea when you have work in the morning.
Staying up till past 1.30 am reading YOUR OWN vampire fiction is even sillier - after all, you *do* know how it all turns out. Yes, you caught the odd typo but really... sleep is your friend. Honest.

The Elder, bereaved
Oh, for the love of all the gods
Give me permission to weep
Give me leave to mourn
To cry, to rant to wail
Ancient convention demanded it
Sanctioned it
Supported it
But I can not allow it
I stop myself
Arrest the tears
Move on, move up, away
The luxury of grief is one
I will not allow myself
Oh, for the love of all the gods
Give me permission to weep

Call for submissions
Reposting - we need more, and we really need prose! Articles, fiction... Write! Submit!
This is a call for submissions to an anthology which is part of an ongoing series from Neos Alexandria, http://www.neosalexandria.org/, the Bibliotheca Alexandrina . Subject: Hekate
Title Undecided
Submissions open: 1 Nov 2008
Submissions close: 30 May, 2009
Submissions accepted:
Prose, Poetry, Ritual...
This volume will seek to honour and explore the concept and person of Hekate, from earliest origins to the present day. There is a very great deal of information about Hekate available today –on the web, in various publications.
This volume does not seek to collate that information.
Rather, it seeks to bring something new to it.
To wit:
Sound, scholarly work on Hekate, as seen, understood and known by the Greeks.
Sound, scholarly work on Hekate in the present day, and all times in between.
Devotional work – prose and poetry.( Read more... )

Dancing god
Dancing god
Laughing god
You who make armies flee
Goat footed god
Hermes’ son
Will you dance with me?
Within the city scape you find me
No daughter of the land
The daily grind entwines and binds me
Will you offer me your hand?
Even in the city streets
There’s wilderness to find
Among the stone and marble seats
Of learning and of mind
For Arcadia’s a state of mind
As well as forest dim
If I look for you, will I find
You dancing, there, within....?
Dancing god
Laughing god
Terror brought at noon
Laughing god
Dangerous god
Will you dance with me …. soon?

Another call - this time for a book to commemmorate the 10th anniversary of Triumph of the Moon. The call is here.
This should be a remarkable volume - I say should, because of the importance of the original work (whether you agree with it or not), so the volume to celebrate that, should be of the same high standard.

Please note the calls for submissions from the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Here, particularly the one for the Hekate devotional, which is being edited by me. :)
I seem to have hit a lull in writing. I'm reading somewhat, in very different areas, but not writing much.
Yes, I know my website is down - I hope (with the help of a friend) to have another one back up, soon.

Am I the only one to look at this and think, "I BEG your pardon? The garden of WHO?"
I can't see it as the Garden of Pan....

I've just received the current issue of Pagan Dawn, with my article about weaving in it - I'm pleased with it, I think. I need to re-read it because of course it's been a while since it was submitted but I remember liking it at the time! :}
With thanks, as always, to the editor.

Just very, very busy. That time of year...
I'm in need of a publisher.
One book of poetry (complete), one book on Pan (not complete), and would be happy to republish others... suggestions welcome!
