Pathways Issue 3, the Beltain issue, will be available at the beginning of November 2009. I am looking for any South African Pagans, Witches, Wiccans, Magicians, Occultists that may be interested in submitting material for publication. Because Pathways is aimed at all Paths and Faiths, there is no limit to the topic that can be found in the publication, and it is open to all. The types of material that are accepted are also broad, being informative articles, artworks, poetry and prose, or anything else you can produce of an Occult or Pagan nature that you feel the South African Magical communities will benefit from. If you have an idea for a feature segment, then let me know and we will discuss it further.
Apart from getting your work published, you also have the chance of advertising yourself by having your name and contact details included on the first page in the Contributor’s Area. All Contributors will receive a free eBook of the publication. Also, if you are an advertiser who does not have an item of work to submit, but would like to get your advert into the publication, then send me an email to discuss an Ad Exchange free of charge.
Pathways 3 will also see a change in layout design, something more dynamic and appealing, so watch this space (or that one maybe), for updates. Because of these changes I would prefer to get all submissions in as early as possible, with the final cut off date being 19th October 2009, which gives you plenty of time to get your thinking caps on.
So, let’s bring something fantastic to the South African Occult and Pagan communities. Send all queries, comments and submissions to lee@rppublications.co.za

Coming soon to Red Path Publications will be a fantastic book of poetry by Carina. The “L” Book is the first in a fantastic series, and is filled with some of the most incredible and powerful poetry I have personally read in a long time. When we speak of Imbas and the old Bards, Carina is up there with the best of them.
We will be taking pre-launch orders within the next week or two, when the fixed launch date will be announced. All pre-launch order customers will receive a signed copy of the book, so watch out for that announcement.
To give you a taste of what is to come, here is “See with me”
The mists of time drift away for a moment
and I recognize your beautiful soul
you were mine during all those eons
forever apart, together still
I look through the veils and see your origin
see the awesome energy that forged the essence of you
now I know that for eternity
I have been in love with you
Take me back in our lover’s play
to the time we have lost, while we never met
getting tangled up in one another
getting lost in finding yet
Through the hazy future mirror
I can show all this to you
Always apart, forever together
This eternal flame of love is pure and good and true
