Shamanic performance, paganisms, sacred sites and contested landscapes - these are the focus of my writing.

Background
Information
|
|
I grew up immersed in reading, and becoming increasingly interested in alternative presentations or worldviews, changing historical and mythological contexts, and also listening to stories from my own family.
I can maybe say more later, but my chief motivation for being on this site just now is to contact another author who may - just may - shed some light on my family in Edinburgh, back a couple of hundred years or so.
