Swan Song / Finality / She Of The Lake, John Grey, Elizabeth Hillman, Ann K. Schwader
Swan Song / Finality / She Of The Lake, John Grey, Elizabeth Hillman, Ann K. Schwader
The Mythic Circle
Swan Song: From this window, bronzed by the swollen eye of the sun, I hear the cry of swans Finality: At dusk, the night-raven came, Perched on the chimney and croaked, Echoing, oppressive She of the Lake: The healing touch of water quenches fire In man and sword alike: a cooling death Comes welcome after warring and desire

The Mythic Circle
There are lots of things going on in this world and, in the scheme of things, The Mythic Circle is a very small piece indeed. Still, it consumes more of Ye Olde Edytors’ effort and energy than you might imagine. Just about the same time that I found myself wondering, "why are we doing this, anyway?" while we struggled with overloaded schedules and my temporarily bi-coastal lifestyle (back in Altadena now) -- I’d started talking to Christine about whether we should hang up the gloves and climb out of the ring before we’re punch-drunk- the Mythopoeic Society’s members questionnaire started …

Interview With P.C. Hodgell, P. C. Hodgell, Mythic Circle Writers' Roundtable
The Mythic Circle
P.C. Hodgell, author of God Stalk and Dark of the Moon, was one of the many authors who attended Mythcon XIX in Berkeley last summer. She was good enough to meet with the Mythic Circle writers' roundtable and share some of her experiences with us. The following is transcribed from a low-quality tape; when it was possible to recognize a speaker’s voice I have identified them - others are noted as "ct." Hope you enjoy it.

While Others Dream / After Violence / Estranged, Dwight E. Humphries

Love - And Hate - Among The Runes: Two Norse Tales Retold, Douglas A. Rossman

Freya’s Tears: Why must you go, Od?" Freyja's voice was plaintive as, hugging her knees, she sat up on the bearskin rug where they had spent the night. Loki Bound: “Hurry, woman, hurry”! The scream is torn from my lips despite my determination not to acknowledge the pain— the excruciating pain— that wracks my face and chest every time the bowl fills with venom and Sigyn has to leave the cave to empty it.
