About the good things in life
„Against all odds“, where the words my witch and I were living by for a very long time, and I keep wondering what kind of life can be spent in the light of these words. It‘s the kind of words to whisper onto the horizon at night on a field, or with an open bottleContinue reading “About the good things in life”
Summer solstice thoughts!
„The days are already getting shorter“, I tell my witch, as we once again hurry to fall asleep before sunrise, after a long night of witching discussions, as the horizon is already painted in a faint red.„You‘ve promised to take me apple picking for years now“, my witch complains and I roll my eyes.She isContinue reading “Summer solstice thoughts!”
How to spot witches in the sky!

And do you remember the first dark clouds of an oncoming storm?How the sky was painted in darkerContinue reading “How to spot witches in the sky!”
Tale about the hurt
„Did it hurt?“, the witch asked the one with the most terrifying mask on, as she mended wounds the world had never seen. „Did it hurtwhen we touchedor was it just the thoughtthat I mighthide my claws? Did it hurtwhen we kissedor was it just the thoughtthat I mighthide my teeth? Did it hurtwhen weContinue reading “Tale about the hurt”
Post between writing and living
I have been thinking about the relationship I have to my writing.Or, let‘s call it the one thing that I wish to matter about my life, which for me personally is to create and tell stories. Do I want my life to revolve around that one thing? Or, do I want my life to happenContinue reading “Post between writing and living”
Dystopia mind
There is an iced latte in front of me and the sun is shining.My words to the person in front of me had been enough to fill pages, as well as to end the patience in the kind eyes looking at me.„You are catastrophizing again!“„Am I?“„Yes!“„But are you sure that I‘m not right?“Desperation sparkles uniquelyContinue reading “Dystopia mind”
The unlikely love of a witch
„What if I loved you with all my heart and skin and soul?“, the witch whispers into an oncoming storm. What if she did?

The bitter realization when crashing down ontoContinue reading “Why witches ride on broomsticks”
Tale about caring
I have a bitter taste on my tongue.It is 2 AM and my witch and I are looking at my old diaries.“I’ve let it soak for too long”, I say, as I pour more sugar into my tea, and my witch giggles. For most of my teenage years, I wrote very detailed diaries. I likeContinue reading “Tale about caring”

Fertility thoughts!
I am sitting at my mother‘s kitchen table.The yellow wallpaper is glowing in the evening sun, while the radio got stuck in the 70s.We are having a late Espresso, and I catch a wave of empathy on my mother‘s face.„Women don‘t have it easy“, she says in deep contemplation. „The clock is ticking constantly andContinue reading “Fertility thoughts!”
Happy-ending-thoughts!
Do you enjoy happy endings?Does a story where things work out in the end and that leaves you with a calming feeling in your stomach really catch you?

Tale for magic to come
„Can I live my life from moment to moment?“, I ask my witch as we wait for a thunderstorm to relieve the sky.

“Will we live enough?”
„How can you be so sure that this it not it?“, she asks the boy with the dramatic eyes a question she knows she should avoid, as the witch is watching from the distance.Sitting by the river, probably, and having some vanilla ice cream. As their eyes meet, they kiss. „This could easily be theContinue reading ““Will we live enough?””
How to see where demons hide!
Where demons hide Would you recognize evil, if it was right in front of you?If it stared back at you, meeting your eyes with the very core of its existence? „Who said demons were evil“, my witch reminds me, and her voice made me wait for a giggling that in the light of today‘s moodContinue reading “How to see where demons hide!”
Unwritten thoughts
I am going through something huge that I do not want to put into my writing. That is new. It was tempting to start this as a witching discussion, like I usually do to get closer to these thoughts. I tell my witch something, we think and giggle around and come to some conclusions.But thisContinue reading “Unwritten thoughts”
Tale about the different kind
The witch had a body of a different kind. Where other skin was smooth, hers made an exception!Here and there it was dry,sometimes displayed the marks evenof those days in er past. Where some bodies were round, her curves were more!Breasts to get lost in,harder to overlook,for she blossomed so intensely. Where hearts were beating,Continue reading “Tale about the different kind”
Dystopia conclusion!
It has finally happened.The other day, I have read on the news that the pandemic is no longer a public health emergency. Was that the term? I hope so.I am not going to discuss whether this is right or wrong, or too early, but since the motivation to start this blog and my witching-writing-journey cameContinue reading “Dystopia conclusion!”
A magical refuge!
Do you remember a place that had you yearn for something magical to happen?A door in the forest, or a secret passage in the mountains?

Facing the witching novel! A writing update
Tonight, I am thinking about what your main character means to you while writing, or reading!! Do you need a character that inspires you and has all kinds of qualities, or even just one important one, you wish you had? Or is it a flawed one that has a long journey of development ahead whichContinue reading “Facing the witching novel! A writing update”

Tale about the modern world
„How do you live in a world like this?“, I ask my witch one morning with an empty pot of coffee in hand.

The struggle of killing a witch
“Why do witches have to suffer while the flames are eating up their body, you may have wondered.Is there not a way to punish them and end their threat to this world without commiting such an act of horror? Do we need to smell their flesh melting and listen to their screams? The screaming ofContinue reading “The struggle of killing a witch”
About being human
I woke up disoriented.„I can‘t accept that they‘re just allowed to do it“.The sunset is purple.The cat is purring on my chest.A sudden shudder is starting in my stomach and I don‘t know why.„That they‘re just allowed to make the choice and leave“, I explain my seemingly random thought to my witch patiently waiting inContinue reading “About being human”
My witching writing routine!
7 days without a new blog post have been my longest so far, I believe.

It takes some time to wake it up againContinue reading “My witching writing routine!”

„I can‘t go there right now“, I tell my witch over my second coffee after midnight „Maybe not for a while.“She rolls her eyes and steals the first hot and bittersweet sip from me, as always. „Why not?“Good question.
