Hi All,
As Halloween is coming, and with it all things magical and scary, it’s high time for some Samhain-related content! Lizzie at lizzierosswriter.com and Chris at Calmgrove were so kind to invite us to participate in a yearly blogging event, Witch Week – many thanks to both of you! This year the event runs from 30th October to 6th November and thus, besides Halloween, includes also Guy Fawkes Day :).
This year’s theme is Fantasy and Feminism, and we at Re-enchantment decided that it’s a wonderful opportunity to take a closer look at the female characters in the world of Witcher. As you know, we’re both fans of Sapkowski’s saga, and we’re eagerly awaiting Netflix’s adaptation of his books to the small screen, hoping it to be more along the lines of HBO’s The Game of Thrones or the universally acclaimed games than the previous, horrible Polish adaptation.
Cool posts will be appearing throughout the week on both Chris’s and Lizzie’s sites, so don’t forget to visit 🙂 Our own discussion is scheduled to appear on November 2nd, and will be re-posted here on Re-enchantment a few days later in a director’s cut 😉 It shouldn’t come as a surprise, really, that our post was originally too long to appear in its entirety during the Witch Week event – we always write loooooooooong posts, especially the results of our discussions are lengthy, as each of us wants to have the last word 😉 But if after Witch Week you still are interested in the full effects of our collaboration, you’ll be able to read them here :).
I love me some Witcher. Good luck guys👍🏻

Thanks for the shout-out, much appreciated, you two! I hope you’ll like our edit although it’s never nice to find your carefully crafted phrases pruned; and so glad you’ll be reinstating them here on Re-E!

Thank you for the invite! No worries, Chris – we have a tendency to get into those lengthy discussions that never seem to end – that’s why we created Re-E in the first place! 🙂

Look forward to your content for this mini-event! I’ve been meaning to give those Witcher books a shot, maybe before the Netflix series comes out. Your thoughts/love for it might be the needed push to make me prioritize there. 😀
