Wild about witches?

I love stories about witches in fiction and on the screen. But I’m inherently a pragmatist so the story has to be a cut above to win my interest and my book-buying dollars.

I also love weaving elements of witchcraft into my own fiction–which throws the editor side of my brain into overdrive. I’m my own toughest critic and there’s always a devil on my shoulder whispering, c’mon nobody’s gonna believe that!

The creator side of my brain needed to be inspired by some authors whose witchy stories have readers eagerly suspending disbelief, so I could study their techniques. Books are always the best teachers, aren’t they?

I crowd sourced some recommendations from the Twitter #WritingCommunity, and thought I’d share them with you.

If none of our favourites appeal, maybe you’ll find something on Book Riot’s list of 100 must-read books about witches.
