o dear…
So…today I had brunch with my friends Mia and John, and my work-wife, Star. Mia asked me if I had posted where I’ll be appearing for the rest of the year and I looked at her blankly. Recovering what passes for my composure these days, I allowed as how I probably should do that. Somehow I don’t have a sense that people want to know such things but Mia assures me some may very well. With thanks to her for her encouragement, here’s where you may see me in the next six months.
Hang on to your knickers.

I think that’s it. I’ll be helping to train new priestesses for Mother Grove Goddess Temple and continuing my clergy work there, of course. I plan to have my new book–Earth Works: Eight Ceremonies for a Changing Planet–off to the editor by Lughnasadh. So a new book by year’s end, if all goes well. Plus gardening, canning, teaching locally, reading tarot. You know..the stuff one does when living a rich and juicy life.
Come see me at one or more of these things. I’d love to see you.
Oh! And witchery. Lots and lots of witchery.
