Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

Big news, friends! I’m stepping into not one but two new podcast adventures, and I can’t wait to share them with you.

First up is The Jamber’ee, a twice-monthly gathering on YouTube that I’m co-hosting with my brilliant friend Jaymi Elford. Picture it as our cozy corner for divination, books, fountain pens, magick, and the occasional dive into high strangeness. It is curious, playful, and very much the kind of conversations Jaymi and I have been having for years.

And that is just the beginning. Starting October 30th, I’ll be joining Rose Red on her long-running show, Tarot Visions. For more than twenty years, Rose has hosted conversations that connect Tarot with creativity and community, and I’m excited to be part of that ongoing exploration. Each month we will dive into topics that matter to us and invite listeners to join in the conversation.

Both shows promise curiosity, conversation, and a little magick along the way. I look forward to seeing you there.

Follow both shows:

Pulling Inspiration

Tarot as a Writing and Reading Companion

I keep a deck close when I write because it helps me see what I might be missing. Pulling a card doesn’t tell me what to say. It nudges me towards questions I wouldn’t have asked on my own. Sometimes it points out an idea I hadn’t noticed, and sometimes it reminds me to pay attention to details I might have overlooked. The Fox from a Lenormand deck sometimes shows up and keeps me sharp, reminding me to be clever, careful, and aware of the choices I make as a writer. 

Cartomancy also changes how I read and think about stories. A book becomes something to examine, not just follow. A card can highlight a theme, make a character’s motivation clearer, or reveal patterns that I wouldn’t have caught otherwise. The Eight of Pentacles is always there as a quiet reminder to keep showing up, to commit to steady work even when inspiration feels slow. The Seven of Cups opens my mind to the endless possibilities that spring from a single idea. Reading and writing blend together, guided by the cards, my curiosity, and the willingness to pay attention.

Keeping Tarot close has become part of how I approach everything I write. It helps me focus, reflect, and engage with ideas more deeply. Every draw and every moment of reflection reminds me why showing up matters, why curiosity matters, and why careful attention makes all the difference. Tarot is not just guidance. It is a companion, a partner, and a steady presence in the work I do.
