Wicked Roots
Step into enchanted forests, ancient groves, and wildflower meadows to uncover the magical power of plants that have guided us through the depths of human experience.
Wicked Roots delves into the sacred relationship between humans and the natural world, exploring plant magic, folklore, and myth from around the globe, with a blend of non-fiction and folk tale retellings.
From rituals of death and rebirth to dreams and mystical encounters, this book reveals the hidden wisdom of trees, flowers, and fungi that have shaped our stories for centuries.
“If we could get curious again, we could reconnect to our landscape and begin to build respect and reverence for what is around us.
We could reclaim the old stories, learn from elders, and prevent the knowledge of our ancestors from slipping through our fingers. We live in a time where the land needs us more than ever. ”
Workshops & Readings
Tales rooted in wild places.
I create and host readings, talks, workshops and storytelling events exploring folklore, history, poetry, nature, place and the stories we tell about the world around us..
I work with literary festivals, bookshops, libraries, museums and creative gatherings, creating sessions that can be intimate and conversational, hands-on and practical, or simply an evening of stories and poetry.
It’s a place to step away for a while, dream, and foster a touch of enchantment to bring into the everyday.
