Connla Freyjason prefers to think outside the box, even as he practices the Old Ways. Having spent the past twenty years as a Pagan, he is a practicing vitki and also a digital artist. Author of Norse Witch: Reclaiming the Heidhrinn Heart, his is a voice straight from the Otherworld.

But the more time I spent in Heathen groups, being repeatedly told that *I* was "doing it wrong", and watching countless people become alienated and subsequently walk away because *they* were being told "you're doing it wrong", the more I realized I have a *voice*, and I need to *use* it. Around that same time, I became aware of the stigma of the word "witch" in both Heathen and other Pagan Traditions: in other words, if you are on a Norse Path, you're patently *not* a witch. A self-proclaimed etymology nut, I couldn't let that stand, either. So I started writing. 415 pages later (including the bibliography), Norse Witch: Reclaiming the Heidhrinn Heart was born.(less)

I was actually courted by one of the bigger Pagan-specific presses for this book, but chose instead to help my "hostess" and best friend *finally* realize her dream of starting a small press. In fact, I consider it a very high honor to be the first book on her imprint. For future books, I'm really going to try to schedule my time better, and I hope that as more books are released by Iaconagraphy, people will get less confused about the fact that my books--and others' books--are being published by an actual small press.(less)
