I am currently in Germany, where I also tell stories with a Guild here. They kindly let me tell in English, and I generally choose Native American and Appalachian tales. I appreciate your giving me permission to tell "Moon, Otter and Frog," but have not found the right venue yet. Happy Spring !

I'm still relishing the memories of CAE MABON last June!

Good to meet up with you again on this site, hopefully this will jog me into becoming more active here, I've been a member for many years and contributed zilch so far! However, I hope to be much more active now. One of the things I will be doing will be repeating the much talked about workshops in Tuscany this summer and will post the information here. Apart from doing them myself I will be inviting others to host workshops here too as we discussed. Good to see from your emails that you are still very busy, are you still up for doing a workshop here in Tuscany, maybe next year?

Hugs for now, Rona x

I know you well enough to know you'll have much to contribute here whenever you have time to respond. Be sure to use this as your page, putting on as many photos, videos and adding to your profile. You can blog here and post events, too. Hope you have opportunity to get involved in some of the groups and discussions in the forum.
