An update. We have hoped for those persons who confirmed they were sending in articles to have them in by the end of June, but to date we have only received one submission, as we are wanting this book too have many areas of articles for the greater Pagan community to enjoy. We will be putting off publishing again until 2013 for Vol III. This will give those contributors time to get their articles together and to confirm that we will offer a Vol III we will be looking at 2013 March for submissions in so we can publish in time for Beltaine the Great Rite.
Deadline: 2013 March 23
I am hoping this give artists and contributing authors time to put some amazing work together for the Annual Black Walnut.

All articles must include a bibliography unless otherwise noted as your own work, as well as recommendations for further studies if so inclined.
As we entrée the dark season or as some call it the Black Months we are focusing on those articles that teach us of the inner workings those things hidden, the dead and the festivals that surround honouring them, the deities in which are worked with more during this time and types of magic in which can be worked during this cycle. The dark time of the cycles is a time in which can teach us about the deepest secrets ourselves and Knowing Thyself.
