I will be re-reading my old, favourite series again - Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M. Auel.

What is your favorite place to read in the summer?
Under a tree, in the shade and preferably by the sound of water running. Perfection!

My Green Resolution for 2009 - Wyrdwood Publications

So what's your green resolution for 2009? we decided to check it out with authors, publishers, bookstores and other partners we work with.

Yesterday we started our January project "My Green Resolution for 2009" with Chris Flynn of Torpedo and today we're having Edain Duguay, the owner of Wyrdwood Publications.

Wyrdwood Publications is a publisher that works solely online and specializes in the publishing of Pagan and Heathen eBooks. As part of their commitment to the environment, Wyrdwood Publications will plant a tree with Eco-Libris for every 'Green Leaves' eBook sold starting with "The Witches' Course Book" by Raven Blackmoor.

This commitment by Wyrdwood Publications is also known as the 'Green Leaves Policy' and it dictates all the 'green' aspects of their business. You can learn more about the Green Leaves Policy at http://www.wyrdwoodpublications.com/greenleaves.htm.

Hello Edain. What is your green resolution for 2009?
Wyrdwood Publications green resolution for 2009 is to make more of their products 'Grean Leaves' eBooks in collaboration with Eco-Libris.

What's your green wish for 2009?
My personal and professional green wish for 2009 is for everyone to do something extra to help the environment. No matter what it is nor whether it is big or small, just something more. A lot of little actions will create a big change.

Other greetings for the New Year?
Wyrdwood Publications would like to wish everyone a happy and productive 2009, let's make this a green year that our children will be proud of!

Any other plans for 2009 you would like to share with our readers?

Special Offer: 'The Witches Course Book' is now only $4.99 (was $6.99), save $2 and plant a tree, what a bargin!

Thanks, Edain!

Here are more details about "The Witches Couse Book":

At first glance this course book may seem strange, unusual even. What good is a course without a teacher nor the answers? Actually you will find this course ebook very useful and informative. You will wonder how you managed to have any focus in the myriad of study areas, which are now available in our modern day Pagan society.

These courses have been designed to guide you as you seek your Path and learn to walk it through the seasons. Each course is an eclectic mix of various Paths and Traditions to give you a rounded base of knowledge from which you may find your own spiritual path or at least be directed towards it.

The five course titles are:

  • Spirals
  • Advanced Spirals
  • Moon & Sun Workings
  • Tree Lore
  • Festival Feasts
The content of each course is given to you via assignments. You will be requested to research a subject area, find correspondences, write rituals, create craft objects, projects and equipment, find sacred spaces, attune yourself to nature, nurture and listen to your inner voice, look at folklore and types of divination, understand the Moon cycles and see the Earth's changes during the seasons of the Sun, recognise and learn about the trees around you and create seasonal menu's for the Festival Days!

You can buy this e-book right here - http://www.wyrdwoodpublications.com/apps/webstore/products/show/274727

You're welcome to keep following our blog this month as we'll have almost every day a new green pledge for 2009!

Eco-Libris is collaborating with Wyrdwood Publications, a publisher of Pagan and Heathen eBooks

"The Witches' Course Book" - is there a better book (or e-book in this case) to start a collaboration with? We're very happy to announce on a new partnership with Wyrdwood Publications, a publisher that works solely online and specializes in the publishing of Pagan and Heathen eBooks.

As part of their commitment to the environment, Wyrdwood Publications will plant a tree for every 'Green Leaves' eBook sold starting with "The Witches' Course Book" by Raven Blackmoor.

What does 'commitment to the environment' means exactly? here's the publisher's explanation about their Green Leaves Policy, which our collaboration is part of it: "Wyrdwood Publications believes that environment awareness and the carbon footprint we create, are very important issues. With this in mind we have developed our own specific environmental policy.

This
commitment by Wyrdwood Publications is known as the Green Leaves Policy and it dictates all the 'green' aspects of our business." You can learn more about the Green Leaves Policy at http://www.wyrdwoodpublications.com/greenleaves.htm.

We're very proud to collaborate with such an eco-conscious publisher that provides online electronic downloads only and is looking to plant trees for his sold copies to support the environment. Please note that not only that no paper is used for the books, but also that Wyrdwood Publications is promising that "there will be no product brochures, catalogues, flyers or any other promotional materials not made from environmentally friendly sources."

As mentioned the first e-book that starts our collaboration is "The Witches' Course Book" by Raven Blackmoor. Here are more details on the book:
