I am (somewhat) out of the broom closet at work! Yay! I had forgotten what it was like to come out of the broom closet. I’ve never really been in it – being Pagan is not something I’ve ever really tried to hide. Alas, starting a new job with new…

Continue reading →: What’s normal?
Last week I mentioned working on a novel. The 26,000 words (so far) have been printed, and I’ve since re-read through the story for the first time since 2012. I would love some completely fresh eyes to read over this. I have asked in the past, people raise their hand,…

I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I don’t believe I “suffer” from depression any longer. I have days where I go back into that world thanks largely to PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder) which is PMS on crack, but I don’t “suffer” from it anymore. I’m not on medication, and…

In very exciting news, a shortened version of my “Herne the Hunter: a short story” appeared in the Winter edition of The Small Tapestry, a quarterly member magazine published by the Pagan Awareness Network Australia Inc. I’m so excited! It’s such an amazing thrill being able to see my work in print…

One night I met her. It was completely unplanned, unexpected, and utterly amazing. It was November, 2012. We were in a valley, hiking up a steep, rocky hill. I made a joke to Herne about him being behind me and having to catch my fat arse if I fell. He…

Continue reading →: Witch… or Aes Sedai?
These days I don’t feel comfortable calling myself ‘Witch’ or ‘Druid’ or anything in between. I don’t feel as though those words describe who I am. Which is why I refer to myself as Pagan over anything…or My favourite title is Aes Sedai. Ca’islyna Sedai of the Blue Ajah, to…
Hello,

Welcome to BookOfEucalypt, my little piece of the internet since 2011. I write about all things Paganism, Herne the Hunter, my path, with bits of poetry and short stories thrown in for good measure.
