I'm a polytheist focused on Scottish Highland and Hebride culture, ban-fhiannaidh, Hillbilly survivalist, barbarian, writer, boss mare and all around raging, rabid, opinionated, savage alpha bitch. Any questions?

Rumor has it that I got that whole Celtic Reconstructionist thing going, being the first to actually publicly use the term to describe a spiritual path back in '92. However, I no longer identify with the term as it is now used for something different than what I meant. I in no way endorse any CR claims by anyone. Yes, I am credited on the CR FAQ but I wrote little except for most of the women warrior thing...I couldn't let them say that women were commonly warriors because it just wasn't so as much as we might wish it. Other than that, please, no, just forget any mention of me at all. I have a BA in Celtic and Women's Studies which brought about the idea that I needed something based on the actual culture and mythology than what I had been practicing, I just never should have labeled it, that seems to cause movements and I don't like movements. Someday I might go to graduate school, but life is in the way right now and at this point I'd just rather become an EMT and a horse trainer. Should the Shit Hit The Fan, these skills will be more important than knowing Old Irish...and as it is I may be forced to learn French and Spanish soon anyway (you do NOT want to know why) and all other language skills may have to be on hold.

I really sort of do make my living as a ban-fhiannaidh as well as professional fire-tender. ~;) My mate and I have been taking steps into homesteading, but work does get in the way of doing this as far as we would like. We have two Greyhounds, used to have three, an Aussie/Border Collie cross and, until recently, an elderly Arabian horse who made an amazing recovery from his past abuse. We live in some of the most beautiful woods in the world in northern New Hampshire.
