Magical Blessings to all who have joined here these past seven months, we are so earnestly grateful that you choose to share your enchanted lives with us on EF. It is our sincere privilege to witness so much wonder and openness, to hear of your glad times as well as the everyday challenges or big events that would test any of us, and then to observe everyone so generously supporting, caring, trying to help, shed some light on or bringing joyful humour to each other.
This magical community feels just like a family and although it is now growing bigger, still retains its original ethos as it beautifully matures and develops to encompass each new day’s happenings. We learn from one another, and although in any given moment some of us are feeling down or struggling, there are others who are embracing a happy time and are peaceful – this is the wonderful balance EF has naturally found to bless us with and we couldn’t be more thrilled.
We are truly delighted by all the awesome talent and creativity on this FAEspace, that is also very much about those of us who just Live In the Magic - the unique combination of these elemental energies is a joy to see and we’re working now on some very special new projects to reflect this, organically born from the EF fellowship and our dear friends here…
This was the clear vision I had over a year ago for this EF magical social network - as though we were opening the doors of our own home for believers who wished to enter, a place where you could sit with a cuppa, gain some nourishment, make a new friend, chat with fellow visitors, share wisdom, enlightenment, your latest project, a funny story or a dilemma, stay a while or just pause between real life, wander out into the garden, watch the wildlife and take a quiet moment of refuge, snuggle up by the fire with the dog, or even pick up a drum, put on some music and dance wildly – all of this feels like it has happened here and tears are welling up as I truly cannot thank you all enough, my dream came true! Enchanted Folk companionship is my haven, has kept my faith in faerie and mortals many an hour, brought me reassurance that there are amazing, good people with tender loving hearts, is my solace and my happiness. I am so fortunate to have you all here in our dwelling where we will be open Ever After, and don’t mind whether you visit occasionally, every day or feel the need to log on all the time like I do - this is all perfect and brings me many smiles ☺ (You gladdened my heart with your lovely greetings on my happy birthday - reaching the 1000th member was my best ever gift, I stayed up through the night I was so excited.)
I am totally addicted to the whole EF experience, this is the first thing I open in the morning (even before I make a cup of tea!) where I work all day, and the last thing I look at as I warmly wish you all goodnight - you are always in my thoughts. Please know that I read each of your profiles, blogs and forums and, although it may take me a while, I do attempt to personally welcome every new member eventually. I then comment as much as I can and return messages as soon as possible, but please forgive me if I get delayed due to my also being a mum, trying to work and my commitments with gorgeous Faerie Magazine, I can never find that wand when I need it ;)
It is brilliant to think that, like us, many folk are furthering their friendships and my hope as you know, is that the Enchanted Folk Merry Meets and Gatherings now really begin to happen all over the world - getting out from behind these computers if we can! We are also planning a very special party for everyone to celebrate our first birthday in September (details to follow) and dearly hope that many of you, even if you are unable to join us here in the UK, will get together wherever you are to celebrate too.
Drew and I greatly look forward to fun times ahead here and if anyone has thoughts or ideas, we’re really open to your valued suggestions. It is an extreme honour that you put our EF banners on your web sites and link to us, we appreciate everyone (including our beloved Faerie Magazine) for so kindly spreading the word and encouraging other gentlefolk to join this enchanted community.
Thank you Always for your Belief and treasured friendships, keep Living In the Magic and please know that you are blessing all of us by gathering together here…

PS We love our Magical Mischiefs – here’s a thought - if the Fairy Dust wasn’t cyber, the amounts that I’ve been covered with these past five months would probably mean I’d never get out from under what would now be a very sparkly mountain; I’ve been sent Somewhere Over the Rainbow so many times, I may run out of bluebirds and Toto’s getting airsick… lol, and You beautiful folk Are granting my Enchanted Wishes, as they come true Here - Thank you. x
