Edgewise Volume 1 - Issue 1
Words from the Threshold
Daniel Yates, ed.
This inaugural issue of Edgewise serves as an establishment of the founding remit of this publication - to give a voice to the practiced, a platform to those who go beyond the page and put what is written into ritual. Inside this issue you will find the voices of those who have wandered, explored, experimented and experienced. These are the insights and offerings of both success and of failure, shared so that others might learn and grow.
Contributors to this Issue
Ivy Senna, Rowan Nymphaea KA, The House of Eden, Genii Loci, Mrs. Medea, Daniel Yates, Fr. Zoheleth and John Muskett.

About the Editor
Daniel Yates is a theologian, folklorist, musician and photographer with an active interest in sabbatic and Elphamic witchcraft practices. He lives in the Lancashire valleys of North-West England with his wife and two children where his postgraduate research focuses on seasonal effects on religious practices in the region.
He is the founder of The Occult Library. Beside guiding the overall vision of the project, Daniel currently works on cataloguing publishers and authors. He also oversees the art gallery project and several other forthcoming additions to the site.
Daniel has received a variety of commendations and awards for his photographic work. In June 2011, his work featured in two exhibitions in the UK, one in Liverpool and the other in Manchester. His first book Arcanum was released in October 2019, and is now available via Anathema Publishing. A work of poetry entitled Poetica was also released in August 2020 direct through his website. A third book focusing on ritual practice is scheduled to be released through Atramentous Press in the near future. He has also published in periodical publications like Fiddler’s Green, and Grimoire Sylvanus.
Daniel is also a craftsman working in stone and wood carving, and a musician spending time with the hammered dulcimer, Trossingen lyre and the fujara, a Slovakian traditional overtone bass flute.
