About the Witch
Hello, you can call me as you wish but I am a Satanist. I am a registered member of the Church of Satan (not an official spokesperson), and I am working on my active membership application in my spare time. I am a writer, but I've never been a blog-writer before. I tried something new and I found how much I enjoy it, so here I am: doing my new-found love! I'm an extremely creative person which both balances and enhances my day-job: my background is in business. I have built and owned two successful businesses, been Vice President of another, and division director for a global distributor. I consider myself a witch because I have used lesser magic to accomplish my business goals before I even realized that it was what I was doing!
I'm far from edgy. I present as a sweet, clean cut business lady who is a faithful and devout follower of Christ. I'm pretty good at this because I was raised under the Christian faith and my family is still adamantly Catholic and Christian. I hated the indoctrination. I loathed feeling like I was being groomed to be a certain way that I most certainly was not, and then one day I decided that enough was enough, and I apostatized. In many ways I consider this a self-emancipation. In no way am I not a god for achieving what so many couldn't even dream of being able to do! Hail Satan, hail me! ♡

About AveWitch.com
WHAT
Satanism is a keynote topic. The subjects that I'll pick to dive into in this blog are topics that have come to my attention are misunderstood by the general population of non-satanists or self-identifying-but-haven't-read-the-Satanic-Bible-yet-oops!-Satanists. It's important to remember that this is all my opinion and my perspective. I don't speak for the Church of Satan or for other members, and I don't try to. What I write here is an interpretation and entirely from my perspective, even if I'm writing as if I'm the only voice on the planet. I hope that reminder felt unnecessary to you.
WHEN
I decided to make this blog when after joining an online community, I discovered that I liked writing them. Being a part of conversations on Twitter wasn't really enough for me. I saw that there was a lot of spam out there and it didn't allow me to talk about the things that really matter to me. My goal is to release a new blog post on Mondays on a biweekly basis. I may post more frequently if something relevant happens in my world that I feel can/should be addressed in a bonus post.
WHY
The reason I choose to write about Satanism is because I feel like there are a lot of misconceptions about this religion out there in the world and I like it, I appreciate it. It's who I am. Anyway, you're here. You came here out of your own interest or who knows, maybe there's some other reason. What matters is you made it. Now it's my job to entertain you with thought-provoking content, and I'm happy to accept that challenge.

About Satanism
Satanism is an atheistic religion founded in 1966 by Anton LaVey. In 1969 he published The Satanic Bible, and it serves as the most authentic source for what Satanism is - if you want to know about Satanism, you should pick up this book. It's a very short (271 small pages, and only about 150 of them are philosophy; the rest are reference) read, and it's very affordable at $8 MSRP in the United States. The book has also been translated into several other languages and is available internationally. Should you want to keep exploring the religion while you wait for Amazon to deliver it to your doorstep, I recommend looking at the Church of Satan website. There are many essays and resources there which are hand-picked by a real Satanist authority - that is, not by some tumblr blog from some random kid you went to High School with.
