This week: melt.

Jeff Lilly is a druid, linguist, and author of one of the most popular druid blogs, much to his surprise. He writes about druid things -- meditation, relationship with Spirit, soulful fulfillment in scholarship and art, reconnecting the ancient with the modern, creating beauty, and healing the world. He is a member of a number of druid organizations, including AODA, OWO, and OBOD, and does ritual rather ineptly but earnestly in the Pittsburgh, PA area with the Sycamore Circle. He lives with his partner Ali and her cat Cu.

I’d just like to point you all to a new page I’ve set up called “Other Voices” — you can find the link to it over next to the sun seal under “Pages”. It’s my Blogroll 2.0.

I’ve been meaning to set up my Blogroll properly for ages. The links were falling out of date, it no longer reflected my own reading properly, and frankly I thought that having a tiny little link buried over on the sidebar was a sorry way to repay the authors I enjoyed reading so much. Really I’d like to do reviews of all my favorite bloggers, much like Kara-Leah Masina is doing, but my blogging schedule simply won’t allow it.

Instead I’ve set up a whole page of links, and next to each link are a few words drawn from the author’s web site. The quotes are intended to give a tiny taste of the author’s style, and hint at what the web site is about. I had a lot of fun finding just the right quotes…

In some cases, I had to compress the quotes to fit them under my word limit. If you’re an author, and you feel like I picked a bad quote for you or mangled your words, BY ALL MEANS let me know and I’ll change it however you like. I don’t want you to feel misrepresented; and I want to send people your way, because I think the world would be a better place if more people read your stuff. ‘Nuff said.

  • [...] Kara-Leah Masina’s reviews of blogs within the Spiritual Blogging Community are delicious, thorough, insightful; Jeff Lilly’s Other Voices page offers another well-executed, original spin on the blogrolling concept. I have been looking for a way to add my own filter to some of the same sites, without just repeating work that many of you have already done. [...]

  • [...] would be an awesome chance to do something I’ve been meaning to do for a while: bring some Other Voices front and center here. I did some guest blogging for Pagan Sojourn back in January, and Slade and I [...]

    I can’t find “Pages” — therefore can’t find “the sun seal under ‘Pages’ “: particularly because I don’t understand the meaning of the odd phrase “over next”; please provide a link to “Other Voices”.

    My apologies, Kate. The “Other Voices” page is down, and has been for a long time. A lot of things on the web site are out of date. I’m slowly working through the issues, but there are a lot of other things going on. :-) For now, the only blogroll I have is the list in the right sidebar entitled “Other Voices”.
