A practical guide to using witchcraft and the power of the written word to develop a magical creative practice. Word Witches are spellcasters of language. They are storytellers, poets, writers, and ritualists who know that writing anything is a form of channeling: spirits, ancestors, collective dreams, and their most authentic and surprising selves.
Word Witch is a joyful guide and companion, helping writers build a creative practice rooted in magic.
Writer and witch Kate Belew invites readers to craft altars of language, offering simple writing rituals that will spark inspiration and equip writers to build their own thriving creative writing practice. Readers will learn to conjure creativity and imagination, defy the silence of writer's block, build a circle of community support, and cast spells that spread magic across the page. Much like the movements of the moon and the earth's seasons, creativity also has cycles that readers will learn to expect and embrace.
Word Witch encourages creatives to reclaim their imagination and give themselves permission to write freely, expressively, and magically.
Weaving together magic and creativity, paying homage to the intrinsic power of words to conjure and shape our lives,
Word Witch guides readers across the page as they undergo the alchemy of becoming writers.
