I am a writer, a poet, a dreamer, a Pagan, and a witch. I dream of liberation and equality, and a world where humans live in harmony with our environment.
I became a Pagan and a witch because I believe in celebrating being alive, and living our dreams and our potential to the full. I wanted a religion where marginalized people of all kinds could be celebrated and supported, and where Nature is venerated.
I love folklore, ritual, and mythology because they are a symbolic way of connecting humanity to the Earth.
My life’s motto is “Only connect” (from E M Forster), and a common thread that runs through my books is the theme of connection: between people, ideas, communities, and Nature.
