Idunna 81 Wants YOU!

(cross-posted to [info]allfathers_own)

The next issue of Idunna, number 81, will have a theme of Odin--Your Intrepid Editors are indulging themselves in the fact that eighty-one is nine nines, and besides, we haven't run an Odin issue in ten years (wow!).

You--yes, YOU--if you have something to say about Odin, whether or not you are a Troth member, we would like to hear from you, and we would like your article, poem, essay, paper, and so on. Heck, last issue had a sketch or two I wouldn't've minded as a pinup, like Raven Livingston's "Oski".

If nothing else, consider a few paragraphs for our "Close Encounters of the Þriði Kind" section, also known as "How I Found Odin and What He Did to Me When He Found Me". If you got recruited at a black metal concert, a Swedish folk music recital, a poetry slam, a data center, we want the story. If you ran into him as a drifting grifter or out hiking, we want to hear about it.

Submission deadline is 15 August, which is a month and a half away. Contributors get a copy of the issue or, if already Troth members, one more issue added to their membership.

If you are interested, please reply to this message, drop me a PM, or e-mail my LJ name at snugharbor.com for more information.

Thanks!

-- Lorrie

Hurr. No promises, as I am way behind on stuff that really, really, really needs doing, but there may be something cooking.

I don't think mine qualifies. I'm not even sure what it is :)

You're not sure your what qualifies?

Hey! I like the updated to-do list on which you reckon he's poking you with the (hopefully blunt end of the) spear, although that's not really an article.

Definitely cool that you're doing a rune class...

*keeps going back in time*

Oh! You mean....*goes over there to comment*.

I'm interested in contributing to the "Close Encounters..." article. Just what is it that you're looking for?

Also, would you mind if I forwarded this to an email list?

Do you have a story about how you first really met, or really decided, to throw in with Odin that could reasonably start "No shit, there I was, minding my own business, when...?" That's the ideal for the "Close Encounters" section.

The rest of the issue can range fairly far afield as long as you can argue that it's in-theme. If you've got something in mind, shoot me an e-mail, my LJ username at snugharbor.com.

Oh, and which e-mail list?

I have some earnest poetry I'm gonna send along just b/c, and I'll see about maybe writing up How Himself Found Me and Dragged Me Kicking and Screaming into his Cult of Awesome Women after Stalking me for 13 Years. or something.

Yay! Send it all in! If we run out of room--hey! We add more pages!

That's just how we roll.

[info]dpaxson reports that she has them, so yay.

For the "Close Encounters of the Third Þiriði Kind" segment, again, what we want here is a short, expressive, account--imagine that it's Saturday night at a heathen campout, everyone's had a little mead and it's pretty mellow out, and someone you trust reasonably well leans over and asks, "So, how'd you get involved in this crazy mess anyhow?"

Answer that hypothetical person. 8-)

I'll see what I can come up with- especially as I just took a wee bit of an Odinic ride...

This is what I get for deciding to "catch up" on my back LJ's...

*sigh*

I will get something to you ASAFP.

Oops....this just reminded me that I still owe you my Odin story. I'll make sure to get it to you. :)
