Word Witch

How to Call Upon and Cultivate the Creative Magic Within You

De: Kate Belew

Narrado por: Kate Belew, Robin Rose Bennett

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 of writers.

A surprisingly practical and accessible take to integrating spirituality to your writing practice

What I loved most about this book is how accessible it is. It’s spiritual without being abstract, and has prachical suggestions for how to integrate spirituality into your writing practice, whether you’re a newbie or a beginning. Each section feels thoughtfully designed to support real-life application. Belew’s calming, grounded tone makes the experience feel almost meditative, like being gently guided rather than instructed.

This book is a “Resounding YES to being alive”

I’m only through the Air chapter and already I’m going to listen to it again. This book is so inspiring. The prompts are thoughtful and invite you to actively participate in calling the circle and setting up your space. I love when it becomes a guided meditation inviting you to breathe with her. The template for writing a blessing spell makes it so easy but it feels so powerful. This is great for aspiring writers and witches.
