Considering going to the Gaithersburg book festival

So last year I went to the Gaithersburg Book Festival.   While it was crazy cold, we had a great time, and I listened to a great lecture by the guy who wrote Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination.

This year I’m considering going to the festival not as an attendee, but as an author.   Tables are $100, so I’d have to sell roughly 20 of my books to break even.  But I don’t think that’s necessarily the point.   Its mostly about exposure, and getting my name, and the “heathen word” out there.

Haven’t decided yet, but if you’re local, and going to come, or you just think it’s a good idea, feel free to comment below.

Rune Reading Template

I can’t even imagine how many years ago I wrote the book, the Rune Diary.  As with all things, I’ve grown and changed with time.    Here’s my current template.

Going pro

So some interesting things have happened to me as of late.   First, as a result of my presence on the book of Face, I’ve been doing online readings.   I’ve honestly not been big on this from a conceptual standpoint, due to the lack of face to face interaction, and a lack of being able to read energy.  (If you take my class on advanced divination techniques, I explain this matrix:

I’m not quite sure how this matrix plays out in an Online environment.   It’s a very different experience.   But its definitely something I’m willing to experiment with.

The other thing which has changed is I have classically told people to “pay it forward” in some fashion.   I’ve rarely put specific requirements on that (though I have once or twice), and I’ve not held anyone to it.’

For one person who I did an online reading for, they offered payment, and I said “well, if you feel like it, here’s my paypal address.  and after providing them my reading document, which I’ll publish in a future article, they sent me some money.   I was kinda of flabbergasted.  It wasn’t a ton, but it was a very nice thank you.

 

Guess that means I’m a pro now, for whatever that’s worth 🙂
