A Short Blog Vacation
Due to an impending move to a different state (Wisconsin), I won’t be able to regularly blog from June 8th through June 13th. But I figured that instead of putting the blog in mothballs during that time, I would invite a couple of willing Pagan bloggers to fill in for me while I’m away. So please let me introduce my able (temporary) replacements.
Fiacharrey
Fiacharrey was born in a small town in Texas in 1970 and spent his formative years in Florida and Louisiana. He began training in Buddhist meditation at the age of 12. At eighteen, he officially became Soto Zen Buddhist by undergoing Jukai Tukudo at the Order of Buddhist Contemplative’s Shasta Abbey.
Fiacharrey graduated college in 1992 with a degree in Humanities and Social Thought. With a couple of years of Japanese language training, he sought his fortunes in Japan, living there a year teaching English as a second language. He knocked around for about five years before eventually going back to school to study law. During that time, he founded and sold an in-home medical care business, and tried his hand at much less successful enterprises as a private investigator, computer consultant, and small business consultant.
Fiacharrey graduated law school in 2001, and started a private practice with his wife whom he met in law school. Theirs is a small town general practice in South Louisiana handling wills and estates, criminal defense, divorce and child custody, and the occasional personal injury case.
In 2004, Fiacharrey “converted” to neo-paganism, specifically Celtic Reconstructionism. He is a bardic student in the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids, and a member of Ar n’Draiocht Fein. He runs the pagan blog Cypress Nemeton.
Bill LaLonde
Bill LaLonde was born and raised in Clayton, NY, a small town on the mighty St Lawrence River (the Eastern axillary artery of North America). Ever since he was a youth writing supposedly non-fiction stories about his brother being eaten by werewolves, he has been interested in the esoteric. As an adult, he has devoted much time to studying how people view the world, whether via psychology, philosophy or religion. His particularly wide range of interests in the latter, combined with a love of complicated obfuscating terminology, has led to his self-designation as a Post-denominational Interspiritualistic Buddhist-influenced NeoPagan.
Bill currently lives in Clayton with his soul mate Abby and their faery dog Cayenne, where he runs a Pagan Moot and nurses an addiction to carob peanut butter oatmeal.
He runs the pagan blog Oaksong’s Nemeton.
I hope you all enjoy their posts, both have impressed me with their writings in the past and I feel confident that The Wild Hunt is in good hands. Treat them nice! I’ll be back by June 14th (assuming ATT’s claims about my DSL service are true).
