SHEathenry: Diana Paxson Interview Part 1

Posted on June 19, 2017

This week Alvilldr interviews Diana Paxson. The interview ran a bit long and the topics varied, therefore it has been broken into two parts. In this first part, Diana gives us a brief history of the Troth, Trothmoot, her kindred, Hrafnar, and her view on women in Heathenry.
