Our book, Conjuring the Commonplace–which looks at the folklore and magical uses of a wide variety of household objects–is now available for e-book preorder!
It’s a very cottage-y, cozy sort of book that will let you see the magic in a cup of tea or a butter cookie tin full of buttons, and we’re incredibly proud of it. If you’ve ever wanted to know about fortune telling based on falling silverware, love divinations with burning matches, or the myriad portable spell ingredients in your purse at this very moment, this book will be one you want to pick up. We collaborated on every chapter and Cory did most of the internal illustrations, too, so this is really a labor of love (and maybe a hint of enchantment).
You can order e-book copies during pre-release from:
