I love it when I get clued into something cool before other people do. Who doesn\u2019t? I\u2019m just one person, stumbling around in the wilds of the world wide web, occasionally bumping into something cool, often times getting nudged into it by one of The Magical Buffet\u2019s many friends. <\/p>\n
Thanks to my friend Marissa at Llewellyn<\/a> I was able to interview Raven Digitalis<\/a>, who\u2019s first book \u201cGoth Craft\u201d had just released. Five months later MTV featured him. Yep, beating MTV, that was pretty darn cool<\/a>.<\/p>\n As many of you may recall I took great pride in having beat Perez Hilton <\/a>on discussing Movember by almost a month! That\u2019s thanks to our artist extraordinaire Will Hobbs<\/a>. Small, meaningless \u201cvictory\u201d but one I claimed nonetheless.<\/p>\n Which brings me to Thuri Calafia. Again, Marissa at Llewellyn tipped me off that I wanted to talk to this new author. She was right. Thuri, author of \u201cDedicant: A Witch\u2019s Circle of Fire\u201d was thoughtful, knowledgeable, and most importantly asked me an amusing question for our interview<\/a>. This is why I was pleased as punch to stumble across this nice profile of her and Carmella Cook, owner of Essential Elements Apothecary, on OregonLive.com. Click here to read the nice write up<\/a>. OregonLive<\/a> is no Perez Hilton, but I\u2019m still going to proudly proclaim that I went there first! Go me!<\/p>\n
