Call for Submissions
Fae Nation is seeking submissions of poems and short stories which feature Faeries. If you have written something you think is suitable please send us an email with your work attached. If picked, your poem or story will be featured here on Fae Nation over the coming months.
As ever, we would also like to hear from artists who would like to be featured or be awarded Artist of the Month, and any other people who are inspired to create by the Faerie realms.
At the Crossroads
Crossroads have always regarded as special places, with many superstitions and legends associated with them. Often suicides and murderers were buried or hung in gibbets at lonely crossroads so their restless ghosts would be confused and not know which direction to take, thus preventing them from coming back to harm the living. In Iceland, people believe that the elves move house on New Year’s Eve. Mortals may intercept them at crossroads, in the hope the elves will bribe them with food and treasure to let them pass.
Best Wishes from all at Fae Nation as we stand on the threshold of 2007.

Just in case you missed our announcement on the mailing list, (and after more than a few hiccups), I’m very pleased to say the Fae Nation shop is now up and running. We have tried very hard to bring you beautiful and unique products and while it is still a small collection we will be adding to it as time goes on.
We have handmade sculptures by English artist Julien Hatswell, stunning leaf inspired pewterware and back issues of Faerie Magazine.
To celebrate opening we are offering a Free copy of Faerie Magazine for every purchase over £50.
