Valerie Biel is such a sweetie. I'm so glad to be featured on her website and newsletter today.
The print version of my latest release isn’t available in the UK until the 8th, but it’s already gotten so much love across the pond that I just had to send out a big American THANK YOUUUUUUU!!! haha
The Magic of Nature has already sold 1,000 copies!
My editor is impressed and I’m just so touched.
My New Pagan Book
I’ve already got something simmering with a major Pagan publisher
But while I wait on that I’m working on a new project and the layout is nuts:
9 chapters
x 9 meditations per chapter
x 9 rituals per chapter
x 9 spells per chapter
=One hell of a book
Life is meditation. Existence is a ritual. Eternity is a spell. Live the magic.
Most writers: I have to write at least 1 chapter today.
Me: I need to record 4 meditations, 6 rituals, and 9 spells if I ever want to finish this book.
Get a feel for Walk Your Path with its top 20 quotes:
1. I have always allowed the wind to blow me in the right direction
2. Visualization is the main ingredient of magic, inner peace: power.
3. The only thing a person has full power over is themselves and how they react to others, and we don’t often have that.
4. There is not one perfect being on this planet.
5. Everyone’s journey is their own. It would never be right of me to tell others what methods work best for them.
6. Plants are the ultimate symbols of life.
7. A house is not defined by how many rooms or stories it has. I always judge a place by what kind of energies it gives off.
8. When you’re outnumbered by trees your perspective shifts.
9. You are your ultimate home.
10. You don’t have to wander around in silk robes burning sage with crystals tied to your head to find the power within.
11. Never ask for too much. It’s sabotage.
12. Death comes for everyone. It’s a natural part of life. We’re all on loan.
13. People who are seeking emotional support find it in the craft because instead of looking to a savior or prophet, we are taught to save ourselves.
14. if you live a happy full life and spread love and kindness wherever you go, the naysayers will get drowned out by your light.
15. You are a conductive being. Harness that power and transform it into something you love.
16. In a society of painkillers, people seem to forget that pain has a purpose. It is there to tell us when we’re ailing so we can pinpoint the issue and potentially alleviate it.
17. The Golden Rule applies to everyone, not just the living.
18. In dreams we accept truth much quicker than in the waking world.
19. Life is always living.
20. Fate is waiting. She can heal. She is unpredictable but not unkind.

Witchy Book
I’ve been practicing for 20 years now. Not sure I’m young enough to even be on here, but how many of you Pagans & Witches are looking for Witchy books? (The kind the lay it out and maybe hold a little insight)
The response to my Pagan/Religious Acceptance children’s books has been amazing.
I’ve outlined a full 15 chapters for a real-deal getting started novel.
Finished the intro and the 1st chapter today, but getting a bit weary about shopping it to agents and publishers already.
Thoughts?
