We are currently looking for new contributors to join our merry band, and we think you'd be a perfect fit! I'm loving your blog - my mom and I had this phase where everything was period drama (or Doctor Who) and we watched everything we could get! We're slightly less obsessed at the moment, but I still love it. But I digress.<br />Our goal at F&F is to inspire faith and creativity and explore the arts through a spiritual lens. We publish everything from original fiction to fanfiction to spiritual reflections to book and movie reviews. Check out our websites (yes there are two - we're working on consolidating) at thefellowshipoftheking.net and inkandfairydustmag.org. Please let us know what you think by emailing us at inkandfairydust@gmail.com! Looking forward to hearing from you!<br />Sarah Levesque<br />Assistant Editor<br />Fellowship and Fairydust PublicationsFellowship & Fairydusthttp://thefellowshipoftheking.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412327638222072810.post-55961407738547757722017-04-24T15:43:18.914-07:002017-04-24T15:43:18.914-07:00Here is my list!
