19) What books/magazines should I read?
There are many, many good books on this subject (and quite a few
bad ones), and different bibliographies are available on the Internet.
But the best book to read is _Drawing Down the Moon_ by Margot Adler.
This is not a how-to book; it's a comprehensive study of the neopagan
movement in America, and the author is a journalist, a reporter for
National Public Radio, and a pagan.
Also, to get started contacting other pagans, the best place to
write is Circle Network, P.O. Box 219, Mt. Horeb, WI, 53572. Circle
is the largest pagan network in the country and publishes a guide to
pagan groups around the United States, Canada, and overseas. They
might be able to get you in touch with pagans in your area if you
can't find them yourself. They also have an extensive list of
available publications.
For residents of the UK who are looking for contacts, try getting
in touch with the Pagan Federation. Similar to Circle in intent, they
publish a quarterly newsletter and provides contact information for UK
pagans. Their address is Pagan Federation, BM Box 7097, London, WC1N
3XX, United Kingdom.
If you start with that, then you will generally find pointers to
other sources and resources.
