I am Skaði meic Beorh.
My mythic journey has taken me from the streets of Hollywood to St. Augustine Florida, to the arid plains of India, to the deserts of the American Southwest, to the Atlantic coast of Maine, to New Orleans time and again (where I was raised as a young child), to Pittsburgh, to the Alabama of my most recent ancestors, to Vermont and, most importantly, to Ireland, the land of the warrior-poet, and my people.
I am an author of Speculative Fiction.
Statement of Vision
All of the writings of Skadi meic Beorh, though they may seem unrelated, are based in the understanding that the cosmos is a creative pulse driven by a Mind wholly impersonal, yet wholly benevolent; a paradox made more interesting with the understanding that every sentient being, organic or inorganic, acts as either a harmonious vehicle of this Mind, or as an antagonist in need of reinstatement. And this chance for restoration comes in a most shocking Act, so terrible as to remain largely unfathomable (and therefore unacceptable to most of the malcontent sentience known as Humanity as well as to an unknown number of other entities). The few beings who acquiesce to the aforementioned Mind become the creators they are meant to be. These writings explore these wondrous creatures of rebirth (through the shocking Act mentioned above), their journeys, their pitfalls, their victories, their necessary petty tyrants, and their transformed and enviable environs.
