i am 27 yr old male in norhteast kansas single father of 2 childern. people like me are far and few in these parts. i was interduced to odinism or asatru in kansas department of corrections while i was a inmate. i was looking for help with my reglion understanding it and advice on various issues. i keep to myself live in the country and work all over the midwest. so my free time is barely any. i'm tired of the way our society is going and odinism taught me virtures which reashured that i was good white boy which is far and few in these parts too. i just wanted some suggestions and info on what i can do readins books and contact info for people who would have some sugestions on what i can do. i don't do much computer talking and i'm new to all this internet thing so i really don't know what else to say. i got a million questions so help me out if you can. i'm a good solid person so it's not a waste of time and effort. thank you for your time.

Waes Hael!

First a good place to start would be our suggested reading list below. Most of these books you can buy from Amazon, some maybe even at a local book store.

The below links are free online texts. There are a number of versions of the Prose and Poetic Eddas, as well as some other good general books on Odinism.

Browse the site and don't be afraid to ask any questions.

Welcome,

Before spending money on books just yet you may like to read around on the interest as provided on the links above.

May I suggest the Odinist Library (http://www.geocities.com/odinistlibrary) which was designed for people like yourself (although I am still building it) and also the Odinic Rite (http://www.********rite.org)

It's nice to meet you. :)
My hubby is currently a guest of the Alabama department of corrections. It's nice to meet some people who have been there, done that! There is also a section of this website dedicated to prison outreach if you're interested.


Hope to see you post often! :)
