Greetings and welcome to the Folklore & Mythology newsletter from BellaOnline. I am the editor/writer of the Folklore & Mythology site -- my name is Phyllis and I am very happy to be here for you.

My newsletter will be sent out each week on Wednesdays. The newsletter is free and easy to sign up for. On any page of my site there is a box where you can sign up. If you go to my home page and scroll down to the bottom of the page you will see the box to sign up. All your personal information will remain confidential.

BellaOnline never gives out any private information and will never spam you -- that is a promise and our policy. When you sign up for my newsletter, please make sure you put 'Folklore & Mythology Newsletter From BellaOnline' on your white list in your email in-box so your newsletter will not be considered junk or spam.

Each newsletter will feature my latest article. I will be providing you with all kinds of information in my articles from folk arts & crafts, recipes, folklore and mythology from around the world, information on the greatest folklorists and mythologists in history, discussing some of the greatest literary works in history and some down home fun in the forum, along with discussions of interest related to the site. You are most welcome to participate by emailing any questions or notes of interest and joining the forum. The forums are filled with knowledgeable people and I would like to see you in there sharing your knowledge with us.

My forum is also free and easy to sign up for. Once you sign up, you will have access to all of the over 400 forums on BellaOnline. Come join me in the forum discussions. You can reply to posts from other members or start your own thread. If you need help at any time, there is always someone around who will offer assistance.

I am also the Appalachian editor and writer, so my forum display name may look a little strange at first because I try to get all the right wording in. When you see ‘PhyllisFolkMythAppalachia’, that is me.

I look forward to meeting you and getting acquainted.

Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter. Your satisfaction in my site articles and newsletters is very important to me, so I always appreciate feedback.
