Introducing Persephone
“Kore! Kore!” Demeter’s voice rang out across the valley as she searched for her daughter, who at that precise moment was watching a smooth-skinned, green frog. Its lithe limbs moved balletically as it leapt from stepping stone to stepping stone across the small creek that trickled down towards the wide blue lake at the far end of the valley. A small delighted smile graced Kore’s face as she gazed, wrapt, at this small green marvel. Hop. Squat. Hop. Squat. Its occasional croak, Kore’s giggling response and her mother’s distant calls were the only sounds to be heard in that small corner of paradise. It didn’t take much to elicit this…

She is telling you her stories… This Monday, All Hallows Eve, is one of only two times during the year when the mysterious veil between life and death grows thin. So thin,…

Introducing The Soulskin Readings
Last week I launched a very special new service to my mailing list, and, lucky for you, I still have a some spaces left. So I’m opening the opportunity up to you, sweetheart, because I have a feeling that it will sing to your heart, just as it’s sung to mine. The Soulskin Readings is a really unique offering. I can honestly say that I’ve never ever seen anything quite like it before. The idea for it just dropped into my head, fully-formed, and before I knew it, I’d prepared all my materials, written up the details, launched to my mailing list and started work on my first client’s soulskin.…

October Moon Treats
There’s a story brewing. Can’t you sense it? Can’t you taste it as it blows in on the tail of that cold north wind? It sweeps along the gutters collecting the spent leaves of summer now turned rust and saffron. It whistles through the boughs of the tree that swing and sway in response. It catches the strands of my hair, the hem of my coat, the fabric of my skirt, catching me mid-stride, threatening to topple me into the street. It’s tugging at the words that are caught in my throat, stuck on my tongue. It’s calling them forth, a siren on the rocks of narrative promise.…
