Hi, can't believe I haven't done this yet, sorry. Been a member for a while now.
The only other place I can be found on the internet for now is facebook, possible blog relating to Gaelic Polytheism and music in the future.
My spiritual journey, well I wasn't really raised with a religion. My parents are Protestant, but never really attended church or talked about religion much. When I was around 14 I started reading whatever I could find on as many different religions as I could and that's when I came to Wicca and NeoPaganism. I tried to practice in a way that was not appropriating, but my resources were limited and when I found out that I was misled (and was still appropriating anyway) I took a big step back and stuck with a few things I knew were traditional. Eventually I began searching out a practice that was actually based on tradition and came across Gaelic Reconstruction Polytheism.
Outside of religion... well my primary passions are music and social justice, but they are still very much a part of my religion.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone Allec, I mostly just play bass guitar these days, but I also play the upright bass, tin whistle, and mess around a little bit on different percussion instruments, guitar, and just about anything else I have access to. I used to play violin when I was really young and am hoping to pick that up again, need to save up for a new one first though. I used to play a bit of piano.
