The Rake and Werewolves

Diverging Paths

Well, folks, here’s where the pathway splits.  It’s been a fun year between when I started this and now, but, all things come to an end.  I’m still researching and working on my book, but, I find that while at the start I had a lot of response, I’m not getting much response from this at all anymore.  In fact, for the past few months, I’ve heard almost nothing from listeners. I find I’ve gotten much more response from similar information I’ve shared on my deviantart gallery so, while I may update it again here and there… here’s where I, for the most part, take a different path.

You can find me at http://nashoba-hostina.deviantart.com/

Thanks for coming along on this little trip of mine… and as always, beware the moon.

Holiday Werewolves!

Don't forget, there's a full lunar eclipse December tenth!

The Beast of Bray Road

This episode explores the Beast of Bray Road. Could it be a bear?  Bigfoot? Would people fabricate evidence like scratching their own cars? Maybe, if their insurance is good enough.  Or, maybe there really is something lurking out there… who knows? Regardlesss, this, like all 'news' has a spin on it.  Take the info with a bit of salt.

 

I know that technically, the full moon was last night folks, but a nasty thunderstorm kept me off of the comp all evening.  Sorry about that, everyone.
