Winter Issue Update
We are currently putting the finishing touches on our Winter issue. The issue is themed Beyond Wicca and it examines non-Wiccan Pagan traditions. Most of the submissions that we received actually centred around reconstructionist traditions, making us wonder if we shouldn't have called it, The Reconstruction Issue!
The issues is in the final stages of production and should be out in stores and mailboxes shortly after Yule.

Autumn Issue is in Stores!
The autumn issue of WynterGreene, focussing in on the theme Prayer, is now in stores. We are also pleased to announce that this issue of WynterGreene was printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper by a print-shop in Montreal specialising in environmentally- and socially-responsibly printing, Mardigrafe. As well, the paper used for the cover (Mohawk) was produced in a factory that uses wind-generated electricity, and the paper used for the inside pages of the magazine (Cascades DP100) was produced using energy generated from biogas (basically recaptured gas from compost). Enjoy!

Exchange Binders Updated
The WynterGreene exchange binders, graciously housed at the Montreal Pagan Resource Centre (MPRC) for your perusing pleasure, have been updated!
What are the exchange binders, you ask? Basically WynterGreene exchanges with other Pagan and alternative spirituality magazines. This means that we send them copies of WynterGreene and they send us copies of their publication(s). It's a way for magazine editors and publishers to see what each other are doing and to share ideas. It seemed a shame for all these wonderful magazines to languish on the personal bookshelves of our Managing Editor, so the MPRC offered to hold onto them for us and make them available to visitors for on-site consultation.
WynterGreene currently exchanges with:
The Blessed Bee
Sage Woman
PanGaia
New Witch
The PFPC newsletter
In the past we've exchanged with:
Witan / Wiccan Candles (ceased publishing)
Moonlit Muse (ceased publishing)
Paganet News (now online)
All of these are available in binders at the MPRC. If you don't see them, ask a volunteer. The binders are usually on the bookshelf nearest the volunteer desk.

Theme for Spring 2008
Spring 2008: Men’s Mysteries
Guest Editor: Taras
Gender roles within North American society are changing, and these changes are reflected in NeoPaganism. Among all the discussion of Mother Earth and Goddess energy, where does the God fit in? Is there a specific role for men within NeoPaganism? Is there a difference between male and female energy? What are the unique or distinguishing characteristics of male energy? How is that energy used? What responsibilities does a man have toward other men, women, society, and himself?
Deadline for submissions and reserving advertising space: January 15, 2008
Printemps 2008: Les Mystères de l’homme
Editeur invité: Taras
Les rôles masculins/féminins de l’Amérique du Nord changent, et ces changements se reflètent dans le NeoPaganisme. Parmi les discussions sur la Mère Terre et l’énergie de la Déesse, où Dieu s’y retrouve-t-il ? Y a-t-il un rôle spécifique pour l’homme à l’intérieur du NeoPaganisme ? Y a-t-il une différence entre l’énergie masculine et féminine ? Quelles sont les caractéristiques uniques ou distinctes de l’énergie mâle ? Comment cette énergie est-elle utilisée ? Quelles responsabilités a un homme vis-à-vis les autres hommes, femmes, sociétés et lui-même ?

Harvest Issue Underway
The process of putting together the Harvest 2007 issue has begun. Thank you to everyone who sent something in for this issue. The submissions that we've received have been sent out to copy editors for editing and to illustrators for artwork. We have a nice cross-section of articles for the issue, however once again we seem to be lacking in french content. When I realised that our french content would be lean, I tried to get permission to translate a section on prayer from a popular english book on Wicca, but I have yet to receive a response from the publishing house. I'm hoping an approval comes in soon, otherwise I'll have a hole that I'll be scambling to fill next week!

Winter 2008 Theme: Beyond Wicca
Winter 2008: Beyond Wicca
Guest Editor: Ceri Young
Wicca is the branch of the NeoPagan tree that gets the most press, but it's far from being the tree itself. So what other traditions are out there? What common ground do all these paths share? How does the community work and how should it work? What's our history and what's our future? How does society as a whole view NeoPagans? If you have an article or idea, we want to hear from you!
Deadline for submissions and advertising: October 15, 2007
Hiver 2008: Au delà de la Wicca
Editrice invitée: Ceri Young
Wicca est la branche néo-païenne de l'arbre qui est le plus médiatisé, mais c'est loin d'être l'arbre lui-même. Quelles autres traditions en font parties? Quel point commun tous ces chemins partagent-ils? Comment fonctionne la communauté et comment devrait-elle fonctionner? Quel est notre histoire et quel est notre futur? Comment la société en général voit-elle les Néo-Païens? Si vous avez un article ou une idée, nous voulons entendre parler de vous!
