Praise for Witch, Please: “Witch, Please is very useful for beginners to know the experience and journey of a modern witch. Stiers’s experiences are universal for many readers, from falling in love and getting married to sharing her Wiccan faith with her family, having children, and experiencing difficult times and loss. Through Stiers’s personal experience you will learn about the gods/goddesses, symbols and tools of Wicca; spells and curses; living day-to-day as a witch; and Wiccan holidays (sabbats) with meaningful and delicious recipes. This book is very grounded, giving readers a hint of what life could be like as a Wiccan.” —DC Public Library “Witch, Please is a fantastic, enlightening read. Misty Bell Stiers’s personal journey working and raising a family in New York City as a modern-day witch is full of wisdom and wisecracks, but it never gets preachy. It reads like any good story should, like it is being told from one best friend to another.” —Nathan Tysen, Broadway lyricist (Tuck Everlasting and Amélie) “Misty Bell Stiers dispels rumors about Wiccans and reveals what their beliefs mean in the modern era. Witch, Please is about a modern mom and her experience using the tenets of Wicca as her version of third-wave feminism. This book casts a major spell on anyone who reads it.” —Seth Herzog, comedian with The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon “Misty Bell Stiers’s practical, conversational writing style is relatable and addictive. From the first line she pulls you in, opening our eyes to the simple everyday magic of connecting with others, understanding oneself, and the wonders of the earth and sky. In her understated and approachable way, she shares her journey with us as she finds her individual path of honest, spiritual growth.” —Dawn Aurora Hunt, owner and CEO of Cucina Aurora Kitchen Witchery “Today, in a world that seems so unfamiliar to many of us, Misty Bell Stiers has gifted us with a book that shows that we can still follow the sun over the horizon, that we can inhale the crisp air that floats over glacier-carved lakes, and that we can wrap our arms around the sacred, wherever we may find it and whenever we open our hearts to it. The authenticity of her voice is only matched by her welcoming, lyrical prose—both weaved together to narrate and define. Misty gives us an intimate view of how to find magic in modern times, magic that has always been with us and inside us, and helps us find a familiar world again. It’s honest. It’s lovely. It’s magic.” —Kase Johnstun, award-winning author of Beyond the Grip of Craniosynostosis
