Well the Spring 2008 tour has begun and I head off to Texas for "Ostara Fest 2008" next week, and then go back to Salem, Massachusetts at the end of March, for a weekend intensive that I am teaching on "Practical Magick" at Laurie Cabot's shop, The Cat, The Crow and the Crown.
We got 8 inches of snow dumped on us this week in about 3 and a half hours and the good news is that yesterday it hit in the high 40's so it's all meting! I am SO ready for spring.
I sent up my completed 10th manuscript to Llewellyn a few weeks ago and the release date is Spring 2009. It is the largest book that I have written to date- and should have lots of illustrations! The Working title is
"A Garden Witch's Herbal"
What do I mean by working title? Just that. It's the title I gave the book now we have to wait and see what the committee decides the final title will be. I'm betting it should stay close to the working title.

Wishing you all an enchanting spring- filled with witchery all about the home and garden!
I've been writing away on book #10 and How to Enchant a Man is due out on January 1st 2008. So any day now you'll be able to get ahold of it. I posted a new profile photo and I look a bit different as I have lost about 27 pounds since this past August. I still have a ways to go but I'm about half way to my goal.
I will be going to PantheCon in San Jose, California in February. I am presenting a lecture on Sunday night at 9:00 pm. For more information hop over to my author website at www.geocities.com/edugan_gardenwitch then click on "Tour Info".

Hi everyone,
Okay I have a 3 month deadline to finish up boook number 10. (EEEeeek!) Which means I will have to haul ass and write 7 chapters in the next 3 months. So I'll be busy for a while and will check my covenspace page when I can.
Wish you all a Happy Turkey day and enjoy the upcoming Yuletide season.
How to Enchant a Man comes out in about 6 weeks! I hope you will all enjoy it!

Hi everyone,
Git back from Salem on Sunday. It was a great trip and the author event at Laurie Cabot's shop, "The Cat, The Crow and The Crown" was fabulous. Now I am preparing for my Coven's Samhain celebration and gearing up for the neighborhood trick or treaters for Halloween.
Here is a picture of Laurie Cabot and I that was taken after my class on Intuition and the Craft. And another photo of a few of the people from the class outside the shoppe- after the class was over. It was windy that night and chilly! So we all are huddeled together.
The St. Louis Witches Ball & Masque was Friday night and we had a fabulous time! I added a picture of my husband and I from before the ball. Don't we look fancy? This event gets better every year!
This coming week I head out to Salem Massachusetts for my author event at Laurie Cabot's shop "The Cat, The Crow, & The Crown". The signing and class is held on Saturday, October 20th. For more information please visit my website at www.geocities.com/edugan_gardenwitch Then Click on "Tour Info".
I am really looking forward to seeing Salem in October- getting to spend time with my friend Jen and visiting with Laurie again. Also I am looking forward to meeting a few Covenspace friends in Salem as well. Proof pages for "How to Enchant a Man" are coming soon and my 10 th book is half way finished.
