My Story:

In brief... =o)
My name is Sez, and I live in the North East of England with my partner, Darren, and our menagerie. At present, we have Amber (whippet x staff lurcher), Roux (greyhound x English Bull Terrier x Staff), Salsa (ex-racehorse), River (warmblood x Thoroughbred filly), Bandit & Fable (French Lop bunnies), Candleston (Tawny owl), and Kes (American corn snake).

I suffer from Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome, which has a huge impact on my life. It is a connective tissue disorder, which means my body isn't held together as well as it should be, and I dislocate and subluxate very easily. It also affects my muscles, skin and soft tissues, and leaves me with chronic pain and fatigue.

My family are Pagan, and as a child I was fortunate to be able to take part in some interesting projects. I was involved in Viking re-enactment from a very early age; was part of a group that built a stone circle at a farm regularly used for Pagan festival camps; and also took part in the creation of a Celtic settlement at a living history museum (unfortunately it was destroyed by arsonists several years ago). I am a Second Degree Reiki practitioner, and perform as a vocalist in a Pagan "Folk-Rock" band, Stormcrow. My more relaxing interests include reading, creative writing (mostly poetry and songs), and I love painting and drawing when my hands are feeling up to it.
