I guess this goes in the category of shameless friends promotion, but I want to alert everyone that The Newport Review is now live online and open to the public. The new issue features a fabulous piece by our very own Nancy Green, pictured above. The piece is called Three Samhain Stories, and for those of us who don’t want to start out reading a story by feeling dumb, here is the definition of Samhain:
Meaning ‘summer’s end’ and pronounced ‘sarwin’, this is the Irish name for 1 November, the beginning of winter; in medieval Irish tales, the preceding night is often associated with fairies, ghosts, and supernatural adventures. It has never been an English word, but Wiccans and other Neo-Pagans use it in preference to All Saints’ Day and Halloween.
Bravo, Nancy. You are brilliant.
Please enjoy Samhain by reading more of The Newport Review.

Cool read. Thanks for tipping off us out-of-towners.
As for you, Nancy, better stop all this flaunting of Paganism and cats; people are going to start thinking you’re one of them lesbian types. ; )
