| Comments: | Greetings! First of all, your work is positively incendiary :)...both literary and visual. And I can't believe you went to Tyler as well! I took most of my classes at main campus, but I did have the pleasure to study under Dave Noyes...and that's who got me hooked on illustration. One of my favorite aspects of your work is definitely your subject matter...I love mythology (mainly Classical but Egyptian as well!), and I think you have a wonderful knack and style for depicting a collective work of magic, mystery, and fact. You give the impression that once you become interested in something, you have a passion to know everything about it...keep up the good work and good luck at school! |

| Comments: | Hey, you've got a really nice site, and I love your essays(particularly "Isis as a Dark Goddess" - far too many people overlook that side!). I did notice you mention in that one that you're more interested in Her sister Nebt-Het. I'm trying to gather information on Her and I was wondering if you had any personal experiences you wouldn't mind sharing. I'd appreciate it greatly. I've got my email entered into this so you can email me there if you'd like...thanks a lot, and keep up the great work! |

| Comments: | Dear Desiree,
Imagine my surprise when I inadvertantly came upon your Web site, which contains a review of an article I wrote about four years ago. The article is "Foresaking Wicca" and in your review you mention that you were denied permission to reprint it on the Web. I cannot imagine why that happened, but if you are still interested in printing the article, I can send you the correct and complete text (the version that appeared in SageWoman was not the most well edited version). Please contact me at Thank you for your generous review. Sincerely, Dilys Pierson |

| Comments: | Kat,
Firstly, I wish you would have referenced the specific article with which you had a problem (I am assuming that you are referring to the Totems Page, but I'm not sure). I also wish you could have left your e-mail address so that perhaps I could contact you and better address the problem(s) my article has. Secondly, I *never* claimed that I was teaching specifically Native American techniques on that page. There is a whole section of the Introduction which deals with this topic: I am not Native American, and I am not teaching anything that is specifically Native American. If a cited a specific author known for cultural approbation, I apologize, but if I did cite them, it was because I agreed with certain statements they made. |
| Name: | Kat |
| Comments: | You don't know what you're talking about - and some of the authors you site in your article are appropriators of Native American culture and spread a doctrine of white entitlement. |

| Comments: | ...I can't think of anything suitable to say; I'm just completely mesmerised by your art. All your different techniques of shading... (like that dotty-type one [oh you know what I mean anyway]), the way everything looks so real in terms of anatomy and proportion, but still has a fantasy element to it. Christ, I'm just really impressed on the whole. (Geocities doesn't deserve you [hint, hint. :) ]) |

| Comments: | What a lovely site. Thank you for your dedication to the Craft, to Truth, and to beauty. If not already interested, you should combine the strength of Magic with the 13:20 frequency of the Mayan Calendar and it's 28 day cycles. Search with an open mind through the information as you find it, and ask for guidance as you dance through its wavespells. Many many blessings,
Starlight Visionlady. Red Resonant Moon. I am a galactic activation portal. You can call me Star* any questions on the mayan calendar, and their indiginous magic feel free to ask. Or go to 13moon.com. What a flip. |

| Comments: | I was thinking of faries and wandering across the web when on an artist list I saw my name... Surely not totaly conicidental when one is in a semi dreaming state of mind.
The two other people I know who are named Desirée but niether spells their name the same as I do, and you did down to the accent. I am like you an introvert, also an artist (more aspiring artist at the moment) and born on a Libra Cusp though the Libra Scorpio cusp. I have been intrested in Wicca, the fey and alsorts of mythology for many years, leading to a large colection of books, a large much used and much loved colection. I just like conicidences and thought you might too. Live happily and Be Well |

| Comments: | I found your work, whilst looking for information on Aldous Huxley and the opposites he uses in his book "The Brave New World."
I completely agree with your argument on accepting and living with "The Darkness" as well as the light. I have no idea of what name you might give my religion, but I believe in God, thus I believe in the Devil. I think we have a beautiful world and we should all appreciate it and our fellow man a little more. |

| Comments: | I feel obliged to leave a note because I've been visiting your website so often now and haven't quite gotten over myself yet.
I am what some might call a Christian (or anti-Christ, depending on their pastor) and I am in love with the History and Mythology of Ancient Egypt. I appreciated your essay on the subject of Isis - she is a mother (who occasionally yell at you when they're mad) - not a New Age queen on dope who loves everyone and gives us cocoa and sends us off to bed (I know I'm speaking as if I do worship her, perhaps I do in my own special way, but it's just a perspective that is easier to write in). I particularly appreciated the amount of respect you pay to the more mysterious Gods of the Old Kingdom of the Nile (more mysterious in my mind than, say the Hellenistic Pantheon - no offence all Hellenistic pagans. It's just a matter of opinion ;)). Thank you, thank you, thank you! (And I think your artwork is fantastic - I love the stylistic designs and your obvious skll with the ballpoint pen - Fantastique!) All the best and God bless, Ifeoma. |

| Comments: | Very informative, and easy to understand. I have always been sure of my totem, and one day I woke felling very lost and without a gaurdian, so I was extreemly happy to find that you also belive our totems can change. For me this was not an ilnees but a pasage into motherhood, I am no longer guarded by the Serpent, however using your methods I think I will soon find out who binds me to the animal world. Thank you. xoxoxoxoox |

| Comments: | Good on you! I too discovered that Wiccan beliefs fit my own when I was in my teens, and I was -- and am, though I am no longer "a teenager" -- continually angry and frustrated with the "teen witch" market. I have something of an allergic reaction to flashy covers, so I never actually bought any of the books in that category, like Silver Ravenwolf's "LOOK, IT'S COOL, AND YOU GET TO HEX PEOPLE TOO!" works, but in my search for good writing, I flipped through many. In the bookstore, sometimes I still hide the covers of the books I'm looking at. It's embarrassing. Unfortunately, it's also a major public face of a private religion the vast majority of people know little or nothing about. Kudos to you for knowing it's not about magicking your way onto the cheerleading squad and hexing your ex-boyfriends, and for decrying the stupid sentimental "sweetness and light" images and the lure of instant material power. Silver Ravenwolf may have her heart in the right place, but she ought to be listening to your head. |

| Comments: | I think I'd have to agree with you on the targeting of teens. I have read alot of those books in the store and they seem, well, just a little selfish. I have to wonder about those that realize this and get put off from wicca
for this. Thank you for an informative article. |
