Hello!
Its been a crazy, busy summer, and now Fall is in the air! Tour Season is Gearing up and I hope you are all ready, Witches!

This summer, I released my first INDY eBook with my friend Tess Whitehurst. The eBook is called Every Witch Way: Spells and Advice from Two Very Different Witches!

This book was a blast to write and I am happy to say that it has done very well for us, and it has given folks plenty to talk about. Tess and I decided it would be fun to tackle topics that most authors won't touch, and to show that you CAN have vastly different opinions, styles and magickal practices and still be friends. 

In our eBook there is plenty of magick and spells, lots of humor, some practical advice- as well as a healthy dose of tongue in cheek humor for everyone to enjoy, and at only $5.99 on Kindle its a real bargain!

In other news, Practical Prosperity Magick is doing very well and I have two autumn author events for it that I am very excited about. The first is in Birmingham Alabama at Books, Beans and Candles Magick Shop. Here is all the information on the event.


Date:  Friday & Saturday, September 19-20, 2014Place: Books, Beans & Candles
1620 Richard Arrington Jr. Blvd S  Birmingham, AL 35205
Meet and Greet Time: Friday, September 19th- 7- 8:30 pm
Class Time: Saturday September, 20th- 1:00 - 3:00pm
Practical Prosperity Magick Class Fee: $35.00
Store phone: (205) 453-4636

Ellen returns to one of her favorite stores, Books Beans and Candles in Birmingham, Alabama for a weekend long event. There will be a free meet and greet on Friday night. Ellen will be signing her books and tarot deck. Then Saturday afternoon Ellen presents an advanced magick class on her newest book.

Description for: "Practical Prosperity Magick Class"In this straightforward class Ellen will be lecturing on her newest book "Practical Prosperity Magick". Here you will gain the information and practical advice that you need. The lure of casting a spell and having money appear "just like magick" is very attractive however, the truth is that prosperity magick, is a more complex and advanced topic than most folks realize.  The seven hermetic laws, and the law of attraction, will be discussed as well as the correct astrological and lunar timing for your best prosperity spell results. Also there will be an honest discussion on how to avoid those "rookie Witch mistakes" so prosperity spells don't backfire.

***************************
The second event is in October. Where I will be the keynote speaker at a big Samhain Festival in
New Hampshire. October on the East Coast- Its going to be gorgeous!
Celebrate Samhain 2014!
Date: Saturday, October 18
Place: Peterborough Community Center, New Hampshire
I will be giving a free lecture on Prosperity Magick at the Samhain Festival. (Time to be announced) 
I will also be on hand to sign and sell all of my books and my Tarot deck! 
You can pay for your purchases from me at Celebrate Samhain with either cash, credit or debit cards.
I am really excited about both of these events. I hope to see you there! 
Blessed be, Ellen

Hello,
I realized that in the whirl and rush of Practical Prosperity Magick coming out in 2 weeks, finishing up Book #16, and working on three other book projects, plus life in general, I had not posted to my blog in a while.
First news- Practical Prosperity Magick is hot off the presses and will be released in two weeks! I received my advanced author copies and they look great!

The reviews have been positive and I am excited to start promoting this one! In two weeks I will be appearing at the St. Louis Pagan Picnic, and I will be there with plenty of copies so come on out sit in on my FREE class on prosperity magick and come and get yourself a book. (As always I will also have copies of all of my books and tarot deck, Witches Tarot, at my booth on author's row for sale.)

In other news... I heard back from my editor on the launch meeting for my first non-witchcraft title- what I had been affectionately referring to as "Book #16th"  and the official title will now be "The Natural Psychic: Ellen Dugan's Personal Guide to the Psychic Realm".
I am thrilled with the book and can't wait for you all to see it next year. I know, I know... a year away. As soon as I get a firm release date I will announce it of course. The Natural Psychic will be released in Spring/ Summer 2015.

I decided to let myself really be creative this year and I opened an Etsy store this spring for my arts and witch-crafts. Here is the link so you can check it out!

I have been having so much fun with the shop and the items are selling like hotcakes! The vintage looking wooden signs are very popular. Here is a little collage of a few of the witchy wooden signs that I have conjured up!


That's right, I make these myself.
Each one of these wooden signs I personally paint, stencil, distress and or antique, as well as seal and then I sign every one of them on the back! 
In addition to the fun wooden signs I also sell wands, pentacles, bewitching nesting boxes, and Altered Book of Shadows!  The first one that I created  sold in 2 minutes flat. So I am working on two more. Each altered book will be one of a kind and unique.
To the left is a sample from one of the new book of shadows. They are labor intensive but I enjoy the process and I have fabulous theme pages such as; Gothic, witchy, vintage, botanical, Halloween, floral, nature and so forth. The altered books include spells of my own design, as well as plenty of places for you to journal and write in your own favorite spells. www.etsy.com/shop/EllentheGardenWitch


I hope you enjoy your spring.
Blessed be, Ellen
