Info Dump
A lot of book news this week. Another five-star review is up on Amazon for Have You Been Hexed?: Recognizing and Breaking Curses, which is now available for check out and download through the King County Library System's e-book program.
Ouija for Beginners: The History & Mystery of the Legendary Talking Board has changed to "Spirit Boards for Beginners," and the change is showing up on Amazon and Llewellyn.com but not yet on Goodreads. It is sort of neat, though to see the ghost of old plans for the book still showing up.
I got a question from a new reader of Palmistry Every Day: Your Life's Path Revealed in the Palm of Your Hand. She asked if a forked love line meant she'd never find love. No! First, of course, lines change. But secondly, it just means that she may be best matched with a lover with more than one classic characteristic. My own love line is forked, and I am happily married.
I get to write an article for Llewellyn Journal related to the content of Faeries & Elementals for Beginners: Learn about & Communicate with Nature Spirits. What fairy article would you want to read? By the way, reviewers, this title is currently up on NetGalley!
As for forthcoming books, in the next few months you'll see the release of The Ethics and Responsibilities of Being a Psychic, How to Be a Professional Psychic, and Horned Hunter of the Night (part of the Wild Shifters anthology). I'm currently writing Romance, Bombs and Zombies, some other projects and 365 Ways to Develop your Psychic Abilities (which will come out after Clairvoyance for Beginners and How to Talk To Me After I'm Gone). Cool news about How to Talk To Me After I'm Gone: Leaving a Legacy of Spirit Communication... They might include a picture of me on the cover, just like a Big Name Pagan! After that is 365 Ways to Connect With Spirit. I've just sent in two more proposals, one for a book about clearing clutter and another for a book about horoscopes. Whew! If you're lost, just stay tuned!
