And Melissa was the 9th commenter.<br /><br />Melissa, email me at magicmysticminerva at yahoo and tell me which annual you want and where to send it! Congrats!<br /><br />I promise to catch up with the rest of the comments, too--you were all great!

That's because they're not available in the German language (unless you would like me to translate them for you), and if Amazon.de does happen to have one or two of them available, their exorbitant transport costs make getting ahold of one of your books prohibitive. <br />.<br />However, given the choice, I would like to read the Magical Almanac. From what I gather, it appears to be a genial collection of short pieces on the craft, legends, traditions, stories, facts, myths and folklore - things I enjoy reading about and love to research. It would be a pleasure to read those all those stories I've been missing out on.<br />.<br />And perhaps I might be able to return the favour by sending you a few stories about a some of the lost Celtic traditions you might not have heard about, such as the newly discovered woodhenge in the middle of Europe, and few other things.Celeste Neumannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121686507934885254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118905778148213851.post-27672097223759320912011-08-19T10:09:48.950-04:002011-08-19T10:09:48.950-04:00Absolutly love the Witches Companion there is so m...Absolutly love the Witches Companion there is so much information packed inside that small book.

The ...My favorite annual is the Witches Companion. The articles are usually a little longer than the ones in the Magical Almanac (which I still love) and the author gets to expand more on her/his thoughts and present more information, so for me they're a little more interesting. I love reading about a variety of ideas in one volume, that's just great. My favorite Deborah Blake article was actually co-written with two others, and was something like "Top 3 Rules for Pagan Living".Satorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810357555548878308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118905778148213851.post-42915592429213884192011-08-18T22:30:16.820-04:002011-08-18T22:30:16.820-04:00I love the datebook.

I love writing for all the Annuals I've been a part of. I am fond of the Witches' Companion too and next year (2013 editions) I will again be featured in the Magical Almanac and the Witches' Companion and it will be my first year for the Spell-A-Day which was super fun to write for!

The Magical Almanac is my favorite because of the stories. Over the years I have seen different authors write about a common topic and it is always interesting to see what another person's take is on the same subject.<br /><br />The Witches' Date book is usually an impulse buy--2012 would be one of those impulse years. My favorite article of yours is Energy & Light since I am feeling sluggish and could use some help.
