Wiccan Misconceptions Discussed on The Gut and Bone Show with Robby Bradbury

Thursday, October 6th, 2011

Tune into the live interview with Patricia Gardner, Angela Kaufman, and Dayna Winters as they discuss Wiccan misconceptions on the Gut and Bone Show with Robby ‘Gutwrench’ Bradbury!

(USA) On Monday, October 10, 2011 at 7 PM Eastern Time, Robby Gutwrench Bradbury, the host of the radio show The Gut and Bone Show on Tenacity Radio will interview Patricia Gardner, Dayna Winters, and Angela Kaufman about Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? Breaking Through the Misconceptions, a new book out by Schiffer Publishing. Patricia, Dayna and Angela, will discuss the myriad misunderstandings associated with Wiccan practitioners and Witchcraft, what prompted them to write a book about Wiccan misunderstandings, and the important need for education, not for the purposes of conversion, but for the purposes of promoting an atmosphere of tolerance.

Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? Breaking Through the Misconceptions is a paperback book being offered by Schifferbooks.com and major retailers from around the world.  While not a book that teaches how to be a Wiccan practitioner, Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? offers sound advice on how to explain one’s belief system to others, and what to do when faced with religious intolerance.  The book covers a wide variety of topics including information on esbats, sabbats, the basics of ritual structure, Wiccans and non-Wiccans in the media, teens and Wicca, and more.  A book trailer is available for more information:

Tuesday, September 13th, 2011

A new book promoting religious tolerance through education, Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? Breaking Through the Misconceptions, has been called a “must own” book for many people by editor and owner of The Magical Buffet, Rebecca Elson.

A new book promoting religious tolerance through education, Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? Breaking Through the Misconceptions [big], is a book authored by three Witches and Wiccans, Dayna Winters, Patricia Gardner, and Angela Kaufman.  Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? is an easy to read guide, consisting of four information-packed chapters; the first chapter explore Misunderstood Terminology and Erroneous Perceptions; Chapter 2 explores Misunderstood Practices and Historical Misconceptions; Chapter 3 explores “What Wiccans Do;” and Chapter 4 explores the concept of “When Magick is Sane.”  The book includes an index, bibliography, and a glossary as well.

Just released by Schiffer Book in July 2011, Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? is already getting reviews that are suggesting that the book is ideal for a wide audience.  According to Rebecca Elson, this book is suitable for High Priests and Priestesses as a book that they can offer to their coven members who are addressing the concerns of friends, family members, and loved ones.  Further, since the book points out the advantages and disadvantages of begin Wiccan, Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? is suitable for anyone new to the Wiccan faith or to those individuals thinking about taking up Wiccan practices and studies.  In her review, Rebecca Elson cautions readers not to dismiss Wicca: What’s the Real Deal? as a Wiccan’s basic 101 book.  Rebecca asserts:

“‘Wicca: What’s the Real Deal?” could easily be mistaken as another “Wicca 101″ book at first glance, and …readers being well versed in Wicca or practicing Wiccans themselves, may find themselves dismissing this book a bit too soon. With its straight forward myth/truth format and easy to follow explanations of the basics of Wicca and being Wiccan, this book is, in my opinion, a must own for many people.”

Rebecca Elson is the chief writer, publisher, and founder of The Magical Buffet Online, a site where “Spirituality, Politics, and Pop Culture” Collide.  Rebecca identifies herself as a literary mercenary, a spiritual mogul, and a warrior poet.  She holds a Bachelor of Science in Metaphysics from the American Institute of Holistic Theology, and she has written for other websites like Deeper Perception Made Practical and What Greg Eats.  She was also a featured speaker at the Plattsburgh Paranormal Presentation where she talked about protection against the Devil, demons, and evil spirits.  You can find out more about The Magical Buffet at: http://themagicalbuffet.com.
