[Bards] From Kat

I would like to express my thanks to Dona Antonia for leaving me with such
wonderful shoes to fill.  She has been a tremendous inspiration to the
Bardic Community, and I am honored to have the opportunity to follow in her
footsteps.

This year's Kingdom Eisteddfod was one of the finest displays of bard craft
I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy.  I was nearly moved to tears by
Duchess Willow's story about the horse, and was rolling with laughter during
the bridesmaid song!  (As were we all!)  Every performance I heard was
worthy of being performed by a Kingdom Bard of Ansteorra.

I was also very impressed with the number, and quality, of original
compositions, and I encourage each of you to send your work to Voices of the
Star II, once Alden is ready for submissions.

In addition to having the privilege of hearing so many wonderful
performances, I also had the honor of meeting many new friends.  I look
forward to seeing you all at many events in the future!  I have had several
requests for my contact information, so I am posting it below - just don't
sign me up for any strange e-mail lists, and don't call at 3:00 am!

Lastly, I would like to ask two questions of the Bardic Community:

1.)	Does anyone know the history of the Kingdom Bard's cloak?

2.)	What type of largess is your favorite to give?  To receive?


In Service,
Kat
(who is still pinching herself to see if it's real!)
