I like to get it out in the open that I'm a Witch. This way people can either continue scrolling through my page or stop. Their decision.

The manuscript that I've been sending out to publishers is SEA LILY. A brief description of Sea Lily would be...Two girls, one human and one mermaid, set out to find a magical plant, Sea Lily, that will help heal the mermaids people. Along the way the meet up with two other characters who help them through a set of obstacles before finding this plant.
My opinion is it's good, but then I did write it so I'm going to think it's good. Honest opinions are always need and appreciated.
Chapters One & Two
Chapters Three & Four
Chapter Five - Seven
What I really want to work on and finish is my Siren's Song series. But I am stuck.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My info ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About me, you ask? Well as I've stated above I'm a Witch. A Hearth and Garden Witch. I like to grow my own veggies and herbs. Every one of my bushes and trees in my yard give off a fruit. It's nice, but is a lot of work to keep them from becoming infested. I have recently discovered my love of cooking. So being a Kitchen Witch just fell into place.
Other tidbits about me...I'm a mother of three children. One boy, lives with father, and two girls. My husband and I have been married for over six years, but have been together for thirteen.
I've been writing since forever, like most of you. I was published in a small teen magazine in Bend, Or when I was 18. I don't remember the name of it anymore and I regret that. I would love to find it. I've since lost that poem. I have not been published since *sigh*
I love Sirens and Dragons. My Wiccan name is Syren Dragonfire
I just started studying the Tarot Cards and my favorite set right now is the Faerie deck.
So that's about it for right now.
Poet's day is an acronym for "Piss Off Early, Tomorrow's Saturday"! TGIF

Herbal Rede
By Scott Cunningham
What can kill, can cure.
More in the garden grows, than the Witch knows.
Sell your coat and buy Betony.
No ear hath heard, no tongue can tell, the virtue of the Pimpernel.
Treoil, Vervain, St John's Wort, Dill, hinder Witches of all their will.
Where Rosemary grows, the missus is master.
Faerie-Folks are in Old Oaks.
Sow Fennel, sow sorrow.
Only the wicked grow parsley.
Plant your Sage and Rue together, the Sage will grow in any weather.
Snakes will not go where Geraniums grow.
Where the Yarrow grow's, there is one who know's.
If ye would herbal magick make, be sure the spell in rhyme be spake.
Woe to the lad without a Rowen-Tree God.
Rowen tree and red thread, put the Witches to their speed.
Eat an apple going to bed, make the doctor beg his bread.
The fair maid who, the First of May, goes to the field's at break of day, and washes in dew from the Hawthorn tree, will ever after handsome be.
Plant not a Cypress vine, unless it bring death to thine.
Beware the Oak, it draws the stroke. Beware the Ash it courts the flash. Creep under the thorn, it saves you from harm.
An Apple a day, keeps the doctor away.
Flower's out of season, sorrow without reason.
He would live for aye, must eat Sage in May.
One to rot, one to grow, one for the pigeon, and one for the crow.
St John's Wort and Cyclamen, in your bed chamber keep, from evil spells and witcheries, to guard you in your sleep.
I Borage, gives courage.
No Mistletoe, no luck.
Be silent as the sacred Oak!
