Superlative Deviation: Life With Meaning, Life With Joy

Surprise! I'm bringing back a project I did a while back called The True Sacred Space and am giving it new life as a long-running series. Today, we'll start with how my favorite holiday went this year. The Angelic End-of-Year Festival is my favorite holy day. I always chuckle when I say this because in... Continue Reading →
Sometimes things don't work out the way we'd like them to. If I had my way, this Grianstad season would be a lot more enjoyable. Instead, I've been challenged to make what I want out of it. Lately, I've been suffering from severe anxiety, which is unusual for me. It's not really surprising, however, considering... Continue Reading →
This tag was created by one of my favorite Youtubers, Autumn Cozy, back in 2017. I thought it would be fun to respond to this particular tag as a blog post because my answers seem too long to put in the comment section. "AUTUMN TAG 2017!" 1. Candy corn: Good or gross? A: I've never... Continue Reading →
This year, I've released my second volume of poetry and am nearing completion of this phase of the editing process for my first novel. Since the transition from writing to submitting my work is approaching, I felt the need to seek some guidance from my friend and mentor, Alura, regarding my online presence. And I'm...

As promised, I've chosen to share some of my own experiences and tips in a complimentary post to Alura Cein's that I featured in the previous message here on S.D. Since I have worked with Her for a number of years, I can definitely vouch for how the world has changed; and because I've spent... Continue Reading →
Recently, I posted a literary update on T.W.N. announcing the future release of an new short story. There have been a lot of things to deal with lately in life, and some of my projects (outside of writing) are at a standstill right now. This is more than likely due, at least in part, to...

Group activities for this month. I’ll be participating in some of them. Hope this helps lift some spirits for all of you! Maybe you’ll join us or celebrate on your own. Either way can make a difference.
Grianstad, the days of many names. There’s a time that can be called many things due to the multiple meanings surrounding it. I have heard those in the spiritual plains above call it:
“End of Year”
“End of Sun” time.
Days of the Sleeping Goddess
The Coronation of the King
Return of the Hunter
And so many more. What I love most about this celebration is, that it incorporates several of them. First we have the celebration of the equinox. During the first week of October, we have the feast of Tabernacle ‘s. Then there is Samhain, and the very next day after there is All Saints Day. I’m so starting from the day of the equinox on September 21, all of the way up until November 1, it is a month jam packed with festivities. It’s always been tradition since Celtic tribal times to make our own decorations, tools…

If people were to get a peek into my activities this year, they probably wouldn't think I was celebrating at all. While the Grianstad festival does include the day most people now call Halloween, we've never observed that day. Our festival is about giving thanks, helping others, and preparing for the winter - not... Continue Reading →
