Alpennia: The Importance of Women's Communities and Connections

I have a guest-column up at Women and Words on the importance of community and women's social bonds in the Alpennian stories. And there's another a chance to win an e-book of The Mystic Marriage!

Merchinogi (Hyddwen): Soliciting beta-readers

Although I have an ongoing roster of beta-readers that I rotate through (and, I confess, track for responsiveness) I'm always open to including new people in the process. The second short story in my "queer Mabinogi" tetralogy is reading to go out for feedback. If you'd be interested in being a beta-reader (which includes committing to giving me detailed feedback in a specified time-frame) drop me a note. (Don't worry Irina, you're already on the list.)

Whether you've read/heard the first story "Hoywverch" or not, whether you're familiar with the original Mabinogi or not, your feedback will be useful.
