I have been working on a dragon painting for the cover of an artist book that can be used for either an artist to keep their sketches or as a book of shadows by a pagan that loved dragon magic.
I’m very happy with how the book is turning out, but until I get back my desktop computer I can’t share any pictures of it. I’ll get some pictures of it as soon as I can, however, and share them with everyone here.
I have been working on getting a copy of my BOS organized for sharing with others in the form of a handbound BOS. It is not exactly easy, since a lot of what will be going into it are actually things I have not written down before, being kept in my head rather than in any book or on a computer. So many of my spells are done from memory rather than being read recipe-like from a BOS that I really never write many of them down, so creating a working BOS to share with others means a lot of things that were never written before now need to be set to paper to supplement my BOS and make it complete.
Since I have began to move the official Book of Shadows off onto its own area, which will I hope soon be finished and ready for everyone to see, I have decided that this will convert over into a blog dedicated to what I am up to with the spells I am designing, things I have seen that are kewl additions to a BOS, and information for anyone that is keeping their own BOS.
A Book of Shadows is a spell workbook, so that is what this blog is going to be, it will be my workbook for spells. Want to learn how a spell is crafted? Want to see the process that is gone through to create a spell? Then this is the right place for you to start looking, because my goal here is to share what I am doing and what works – and what does not work and why I think it might have failed to work.
Today I am working on getting the template for this blog changed to a better looking template, giving it a more BOS type feel, so please bear with me as I work on that, thanks.
