Celtic Myths, Magic and Witch Trials

Step into the world of Celtic folklore and uncover the real stories of witches, wise women, and the trials that condemned them. On Saturday, October 25th at 2pm I’ll be performing “Celtic Myths, Magic & Witch Trials” at the Round Rock Public Library.  This FREE, lively, interactive talk blends history, myth, and magic from the Scottish Highlands to Colonial America and ends with a mock witch trial. Someone will be accused. EVERYONE will decide her fate…
