Four Llewellyn Titles Are IPPY Award Winners!Four Llewellyn titles are IPPY award winners! These titles were named as winners in the 2013 Independent Publisher Awards, which are designed to bring increased recognition to the deserving but often unsung titles published by independent authors and publishers. The 2013 Independent Publisher Awards (IPPYs) were revealed via an announcement on their website. The awards [...] Magick is a Science: Treat it that Way!Two days ago was the Spring Equinox. The Sun was exactly overhead at noon. This solar influence has been so important on the history of humanity that it is celebrated in numerous cultures going back thousands of years. Zoroastrians call it Nowruz. Jews identified it with Pesach (Passover). Some Pagans associated it with the goddess [...] Meditation vs. Meditating — Jesus vs. AstrologyBack on January 3, I posted that I have two preliminary goals for the new year. The first goal was to finish the manuscript for my next book and submit it to Llewellyn for consideration at PantheaCon. I am glad to say that indeed, I accomplished that goal. For a variety of reasons it takes [...] The Week in Review—PantheaCon, Wine, Fox, An ApologyPantheaCon PantheaCon 2013 is over, and it may have been the best convention yet. Speakers came from all over, including Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero from Florida, Christopher Penczak from New Hampshire, Athena W. of Enochian.org who is up in Canada, and Lon Milo DuQuette from Southern California. Elysia, the head acquisitions editor for Llewellyn [...] I Want You to Write!I honestly believe that Llewellyn publishes some of the most important and valuable books around. The authors you read today may be the Gerald Gardners, Doreen Valientes, Israel Regardies, Aleister Crowleys, and Arthur Avalons of tomorrow. Which authors today will take their place in that pantheon of names? I don’t know. My guess is that [...] Myths About Pirated BooksToday I got five emails from authors all alerting me to a website that had 32 of our books and an equal number of other publishers’ books on it, scanned in and uploaded as PDFs for anyone to freely download. If it sounds like harmless sharing to you, please read this post and educate yourself [...] Travels of a Wizard—Part 6[Once again this motel chain's internet connection is going up and down. Today I'm writing from Mickey-D's.] A Day at Llewellyn Wednesday was my day at home offices of Llewellyn. This was a fantastic day. I got to see many long-time friends and make a few new ones. Llewellyn is not Hogwarts. It doesn’t have [...] Llewellyn’s 110th Anniversary ExtravaganzaYes, you read that correctly—this year we celebrate our 110th birthday! (Does that make us officially old??) We’ve spent over a century publishing books for the body, mind, and spirit, dedicated to bringing our readers the very best in metaphysical books and resources. Since 1901, we’ve been at the forefront of holistic and metaphysical publishing [...] So You Want to Write a Book…It almost always happens that when I go to any event, someone tells me they’d like to write a book. Sometimes their approach is one of looking for advice. Sometimes they are more aggressive (“I can write a book better than that!”). I always encourage them and offer to help. This is because when it [...] Why Hypnosis WorksIt has been said that if magick is the ability to make desired changes, then the most powerful form of magick is the ability to change your mind. I’m not sure that’s completely accurate, but the ability to fully use the mind to make desired changes is certainly quite powerful. To my mind, no tool [...] MEET THE BLOGGERS
