Hey Jennifer don't be so quick to divide us!
I'm a Brit but lived USA for a while.
I am a part time student too.
My career for 20 years was psychology but I did media work
too.

I've been a conscious feminist since 1973 and a Craft priestess
serving the Goddess since 1983
(here in the UK we use Wicca more narrowly to mean
only one branch of the Craft).
I had no formal theological training until 4 years ago and Ive
had
to fight hard to gain any respect as a Pagan thealogian. It's
been
very lonely and difficult.

I am here as a dedicated priestess, a mother, and a part time
academic who has had to struggle against a lot of prejudice
because of my faith. I'm now celebrating an extraordinary lift in
my
fortunes that means what I'm doing looks a lot more impressive
all of a sudden. Joining this list is part of that celebration.
In trust
Shan
