This is the bio from my books:

"Swain Æþeling Wódening is an Anglo-Saxon Heathen, and one of the founding members of the Miercinga Ríce. He started his Heathen life back in 1984 along with his brother. He learned of the Asatru Free Assembly the year it disbanded, but in 1989 he learned of and joined the Troth. Shortly thereafter, he learned of Theodism, then solely an Anglo-Saxon phenomena, and joined the Winland Ríce in 1993. He rapidly advanced to the arung of lord by writing articles and attracting new members. In 1996, after several disputes with the leadership, he left to form the Angelseaxisce Ealdriht with Winfred Hodge. The Ealdriht grew to be the largest Anglo-Saxon Heathen and Theodish organization to ever exist. The Ealdriht eventually became the Miercinga Ríce (for info go to www.ealdriht.org) in an effort to encourage regionalism, and to return to a purer form of Theodish Belief. He led that organization until June, 2006 when he resigned to seek a deeper spirituality. His former wife Teresa then took over leadership. Swain has written several books and booklets and countless articles including "Hammer of the Gods: Anglo-Saxon Paganism in Modern Times", and "Germanic Magic." "

Now that we are through with the official bio, I can get on with the regular one. I am married with two children, a stepson and son. I grew up in Missouri, now living in Texas, and work as a manager for a major retail chain.
