Maleah replies:

Funny you should mention bardic circles. We'll be having one at Beltane
Games here in Namron the 2nd week-end in May (yes, I know, shameless plug
but that's my job). While we will use it to choose our newest Bard, any and
all are welcome and encouraged to attend. The Baroness is even going to be
offering largesse to those gentles who most please her with their talents. I
grew up in the SCA listening to the voices of our many Bards and have a
distinct fondness for them. I look forward to seeing you all there songs and
stories in hand.
