Day 30: Not So Grande Finale #DoMagick
So yeah – this is it. And for the rest of the summer you won’t have to read my daily magick blog. Perhaps my monthly blogs will be more substantive. On the upside I feel things finally moving again. This is just the beginning though as the real work is coming. Today I woke up, opened the temple, had my…

Day 29: Dealing With Anxiety #DoMagick
So obviously, you can tell from reading past posts that I’ve been dealing with some anxiety here. A lot of it social anxiety. In one of my business groups on FB today, I shared my social anxiety with the group. The leader of the group, a fellow magician, reminded me that it was okay to use magick to help me…

Day 28: Yes – This Shit Burns #DoMagick
So I’m beginning to think this particular model configuration is drawing a lot of extra obligations into the mix. But instead of an immediate reconfiguration, I’m going to work through this. Sorath is shining a light on bigger issues. Personal issues that likely need to be addressed before I can move forward. Ignoring them could be a bad mistake. What…

Day 27: Gear Shift #DoMagick
Today was just a wild crazy day. Payroll at the office. Family emergency. Comic Con preparation. Mentally fried with constant conversation/interuption/jibber-jabber. UGH I need a quiet hidey hole somewhere. So that’s how my day/night went. 🙂 I didn’t pull any cards today. Was a busy day. Now I’m off to meditate (hopefully in silence – we shall see) then…

Day 26: Happy Hatching #DoMagick
Today is my birthday. I always tell family and friends that it’s not really a big deal, that it’s just another fucking day. Some years I enjoy the yearly tradition of my husband taking me out to eat, other years I don’t really care one way or the other. This year I’m looking forward to dinner out. I’m not a…

Day 25: Classes and Teaching #DoMagick
Today was the day I immersed myself in Daemonolatry and Magick, like I do almost every Sunday. I did my normal temple routine, worked with my Sorath model for about fifteen minutes, taught two classes (cancelled the third due to lack of attendees), and did a handful of readings. I also had a chance to talk with a friend about…

Day 24: Snails #DoMagick
Haha! Snails may move slow, they they still often make it to where they want to go. Just plodding along. Seriously – nothing new. All I can do at this point is my daily work and work. Spent the day answering email, chatting with editors and collaborators on projects. Working out schedules and organizing for Comic Con. Not much else…

Guest Post: L. Bachman Interview
AUTHOR INTERVIEW: L. Bachman What is your favorite thing about being a writer? The most satisfying part is when someone reads and enjoys my work. I love hearing that something I’ve spent a large part of my life working on ends up satisfying and entertaining someone. What genre(s) do you write and why? Dark fantasy and horror, I never meant…

Day 23: Breathe #DoMagick
Busy day at the office. Normal ritual work done. Today I decided to pull a Lenormand card. A friend of mine told me about them so I bought a deck and I’m slowly getting used to them. When I was younger, a friend of mine learned to read regular playing cards via her grandmother, and passed some of that knowledge…

Day 22: Nothing to Report #DoMagick
Standard ritual practices today. Some prayers said. Some writing chores done. Editing on ETG didn’t go as planned. Disappointed in myself for that. Think I may have to use some reverse psychology on myself there. There is a psychological block with this book. It represents the end of a journey for me that spanned a good 25 years. I think…
