The Elements of Shamanism by Nevill Drury
I actually reviewed this on Friday, but just now got around to posting about it. Go, read, see what I thought :)
]]>Don't ever tell me Llewellyn never puts out anything good any more--if I ever get around to making my list of Required Reading For the Pagan Community, this is going to be in there.
]]>The Cave Painters: Probing the Mysteries of the World's First Artists by Gregory Curtis
This just became one of my favorite books. Will it become one of yours? Click the link to find out.
]]>Happy one-year anniversary, Pagan Book Reviews!
Yup, it's been a year since I started the book review blog--click the link to see stats, some of my favorite books from the past year, and, of course, this month's Bargain Bin Book Review!

]]>Well, we have awesome news! Kink Magic: Sex Magic Beyond Vanilla has officially arrived! The boxes arrived last night. And the book looks great! Thanks again to Naryu for the fantastic cover art, and to Dan and Dawn, and Daven, for the guest essays, and to Dossie Easton for the foreword! Finally, many, many thanks to my lovely Taylor for cowriting this book with me.
Now is your last chance to get in the drawing for the signed galley copy of Kink Magic. We'll be signing and packaging them up tonight, and we'll be doing the drawing then. Each copy of the book you order is a free chance to win--assuming you're of age (and, of course, interested in the subject material) click here to place your order!
Also, for you Amazon.com fans, the book has been up a couple of weeks on all Amazon.com sites. Or, if you're more of a Powells.com fan, they can special order it for you (though they tack on a couple of dollars).
]]>Random stuff about me:
I have a new free ebooklet (or you can get an at-cost dead tree version at Lulu.com). Animal Totems of the Four Directions is an introductory guide to animals that may represent and teach you the lessons of each of the four cardinal directions. It's not meant to be a dogmatic text that gives you all the answers; rather, it's a way to give you some ideas and possibilities, and to help you think in different directions (no pun intended) about work with totems. Click here for more info and a free download! Also, feel free to pass it on to anyone who may be interested.
I also have a new article up at Otherkin.net. I posted a blog post about Mediakin way back earlier in the year; I liked it enough that I cleaned it up and now it's an official article. Also, the new issue of the Graveyard Press ezine is out, with a theme of Awakening for this issue. It's Not a Race is my contribution, but be sure to check out the rest of the 'zine as well!
Finally, one of the best podcast interviews I've had is now up at Occult of Personality. This one was particularly good as Greg, the interviewer, picked up on some topics that I generally don't get asked about that much--he got to be the first person to interview me about therioshamanism, and we also spoke at some length about cultural appropriation, and talked some about kink magic as well.

Obviously, it's just a review of the book in question, so nothing horribly graphic. Still may be NSFW/under 18 for general content, though.
