It has been a long time since my last post. For those following this, my apologies. Between some health issues and real life demanding so much, I've been remiss in keeping this updated.
While I do all of my paganism work under this name, I do some fiction work under another pen name. It has to do with keeping my personal and professional and witchy lives separate. Once you have been stalked, threatened, have had your family and pets threatened you become wary of being too public.
Where I live, like many places in the U.S. they do not take threats of violence, torture or death against women (or non-christians, or people of color) seriously. I had a drug dealer attempt to run me down in his car. The police told me that was not possible he was "a good ol' boy". I found out that many of them were on the take, when the "good ol' boy" was busted by the feds, the police department got a real big shake up and we got new officers.
Since all of that we have moved several times, but the conditions are similar where ever you go. You can't trust the police or the local officials. There has been this disturbing trend to protect the rights of criminals while ignoring law abiding citizens' rights.
Anyway, I will try to be more active here. It has just been a very long, stressful year so far and I've been managing to cope with out much energy left over.
