This post is filler

I don’t normally let a week go by without blogging, but thing happened, like being asked by a magazine-editor friend to write a 2,000-word “think piece” on the dilemmas of a being an “evacuee”–from a forest fire in my case, but with obvious relevance to Katrina and Rita.

That took up last Sunday afternoon, which meant I was behind on reading student work . . . and it snowballed.

I also received the “author’s marketing questionnaire” for Her Hidden Children, which is a good sign, and I’m scrambling for more photos. If you have any photos of key figures in American Paganism in the 1950s-1970s (or even earlier–Gleb Botkin, anyone), let me know. This weekend, meanwhile, I have to work on the questionnaire.

This Saturday I will take some nature-writing students on a mini-writing marathon in the SE Colorado canyon country. We won’t be visiting any of the “Colorado ogham” sites, but we will be near enough that I plan to bring Bill McGlone’s photo book of SE Colorado rock art, which includes some examples. (Quick overview of Ogham writing.)
