I might have gotten four and a half hours sleep last night. Possibly. Possibly less. Maybe I'm fighting some unnatural bit of personal evolution. Maybe Nebari sleep a whole lot less than humans. Maybe it's an elvish thing. Maybe I've entirely lost my silly, sleep-deprived mind

I sincerely don't want to become one of those tiresome gits who drones on and on and on about spirituality in her journal.

I can't really see you becoming that.
Most of everything you write in here seems bery matter-of-fact and interesting, and I personally like that you are discussing your spirituality and your beliefs. It always interests me to see the ways that Wiccans differ in practice and belief and manage to maintain the core tenants of the spirituality, much in the way that early Christian sects differed and remained similar. As a Wiccan, I like getting glimpses into other people's ritual because it tends to differ from what I personally do.

This is a very long comment with no real purpose other than to state that I enjoy reading your journal as well as your fiction and I just wanted to express my interest and gratitude. Also, I am interested in reading what you happen to write about gender polarity and Wicca as well.

Thanks. Still, I fear it. The fear will keep me from becoming it. I hope.

That's an interesting parallel...

I've received my copy of THE MEREWIFE and it is quite nice. Letter 'R'!
I haven't begun reading it yet cuz I really don't want it to end so quickly. Although I couldn't help myself and umm, read the afterword, but there ya go... Had to get a small fix!

Have you mentioned NIGHT before and could you give some details about it?

I have. I wrote it last summer. It's a new sf story. Mimas. Antarctica free of ice. Androids who don't know they're androids. Mental clones. Fun stuff.

[nykolus]

yes! fun stuff indeed! sounds grand!

All yesterday was spent preparing for our Ostara ritual, which I thought came off wonderfully. I'm not sure what if anything I should say about it here. I sincerely don't want to become one of those tiresome gits who drones on and on and on about spirituality in her journal.

I don't think you drone, you vocalize, which is an important distinction. Your ritual sounds very beautiful and (again) makes me a little jealous that I don't really have any profound spiritual practice or ethos I feel genuine about clinging to. Such is the burn that a second-generation lapsed Catholic feels.

What prospects are there that the stories going over to Subterranean are going to be reprinted in a collection?

"Night" (and "Bradbury Weather") will eventually appear in a collection of sf stories, A is for Alien, which will likely be released by subpress in 2008 or so.

You talk about it like your everyday life, because it is.

Yes. I think that's very important, as I don't want to come off as prostelitizing or over zealous. And right now, so much of what I'm doing is just trying to integrate, to make these things a part of my eveyday life.

Eep. I'm being looked at. Really need to invest in curtains, don't I?
