So I had made a deal with myself that I would be a good lil
Witch and write all the stuff down that I would put in my Grimoire/Book of
Shadows. And if I could do that until my
birthday (November 10th), then I would purchase a nice leather-bound
3-ring binder. This is what I’ve decided
I want my Book of Shadows to be. I need
the 3-ring binder because I am constantly changing my practices, so I need
something I can easily remove things and add things.
And I had every intention in holding true to that deal. But then I finally answered the pull to go to
Staples (I’ve been feeling this pull all damn day). And there they had these lovely black leather
3-ring binders…..on sale. ::sighs:: I mean, seriously? How could I pass up a beautiful black leather
binder, like what I WANT and it was only $10?
So of course….I bought it.
Because, it was just perfect.
Now, I definitely have to hold up the other end of the bargain. I’ve got to seriously begin working in my
Book of Shadows.
I’m thinking of asking one of my artistic friends if they
would design a cover/title page. Of
course, I’d offer to pay them, as it only seems fair. I wouldn’t watch children for free, so why
would I expect an artist to do their job for free? I’ve just got to figure out what exactly I
want for a title page and then I can approach my buddies about commissioning
them to do this for me. I just hope this
doesn’t mean I’m going to get caught up in making everything perfect…which means,
I don’t do a damn thing. Though, maybe
by using a 3-ring binder, I can let that fear go. And if I totally screw it up? I can take it out and start all over
again.
Right now, I’m focusing on writing down a list of topics I
want to cover in my Book of Shadows. Then
I can begin writing out my thoughts and how-to’s on the topics. Then I can begin refining and using and
refining some more on each of the things I’ve written about. Or at least, that’s the plan. Wish me luck, as I don’t have the best track
record with sticking with a plan.
