Addition of Links to Other Articles

Over at HubPages this month, they are having a Know-It-All contest. As a result, I've been writing a lot of articles of interest to Wiccans and Pagans that would be appropriate to the site. Instead of posting the articles on the site directly (and having to deal with a headache about duplicate content, and rightfully so), I have included links to the specific articles throughout the site as appropriate. For example, the Advice for Wicca Beginners page now includes a link to my hub Wicca Beginner Tips. Some articles are added to sections called "Outside Links" on the different menu pages like the Information Beyond the Basics menu page. When you click on one of these links, it will open in a new tab (or window depending upon your browser and settings).

Hopefully this will help bring the information together instead of having to search different sites at once. Granted, only links to my articles are included in this way. (Links to the writings and websites of others are posted on the Links pages). If you have any questions or run into problems with any of the links, be sure to let me know!

Newsletter Announcement

The Ostara issue (#21) of the newsletter came a couple days ago. If you didn't get a chance to read it, you can find a copy at the Newsletter Archive. I hope you all enjoy!

The next issue will be out in June for Midsummer. We are currently looking for submissions! Our theme will be "Making Dreams Come True": So many of us are bombarded by information, standards, and modes of thinking by cultures that convince us that our dreams are unrealistic. Maybe we never listened to them and have been striving toward our dreams all along. Maybe we took awhile, but are now casting off our old selves. Maybe we are still stuck in moving toward our true life's purpose. What have you done to pursue your dreams? What holds you back? How do you overcome the negativity from those around you? How are you making your dreams come true?

Submissions for the Midsummer issue will be 01 June 2012. All submissions received after the deadline will be saved for future issues. For more details, see the Newsletter Information page at the site. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to post them here as comments or shoot me an email! :)

Blessings,
Evy

No More Weekly Discussions

Well, per forum member feedback, I began weekly discussions. After a couple months of this, only two people participated and only once each and only with the first two discussions. As a result, I will no longer be taking the time to designate special discussions as a highlight for the week. Instead, I will go back to encouraging a variety of discussions as I used to. For all those who wanted Weekly Discussions and are upset by this, I'm sorry. You should have participated.

On a less frustrating note, the next issue of the newsletter will be coming out within the next two weeks so be sure to be on the lookout! In the meantime, I still have not received any submissions for this issue (the deadline was the 1st of this month and then extended to the 8th). If you would like to submit anything to the newsletter, please be sure to do so ASAP! Thanks. :)

Blessings,
Evy
