I had the honor of contributing to an anthology of short works about the Goddess Brigit, 
edited by my dear mentors Patricia Monaghan and Michael McDermott. It’s now in print, and will be available through Goddess-Ink Press on Beltane – May 1, 2013

Patricia was my dissertation mentor, and gave me my first opportunity to publish by inviting me to contribute a piece about the Goddess Guanyin to her “Goddesses in World Cultures” anthology. She died earlier in the year, making this a very bittersweet publication.
