October Events with the Spirited Witch
there's a lot happening this spooky season, and most you can enjoy at home!
It’s been a relatively quiet year of teaching classes and the occasional podcast guest spot. I’ve been recovering from a boiler fire that started on Christmas Eve last year. The result? My family wound up out of our home for three months, as a series of small miracles stemming from the emergency resulted in the removal of asbestos, corrected electrical, and so much more.
If you don’t roll well with stress, do NOT hook up with a shaman. Someday I may have a book just about living with Synty. But I have to admit the results can be pretty solid in the long run.
Everyone and everything waited patiently for me to recombobulate. Now, here I am, and October has come with some relatively pleasant surprises. The good news for all of you is that you can enjoy three out of the four big events at home in your fuzzy socks!
To get a feel for Witchtober, listen to my guest spot on That Witch Life! Also, hold some space for the week of October 9th, because another episode of Left Unsupervised with Nikki is coming your way!
October 14th and 15th So Mote That Con I will be teaching the workshop “Am I Hexed, or is it just Gas?” The con is online, and there’s still plenty of room for attendees! Book your tickets here: https://thatwitchlife.com/so-mote-that-con-2023/
Oh, and the keynote speaker? Laurel K Hamilton, author of the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series. Nikki and I are both fans and absolutely geeked!

Other Things:
My local witchy shop is struggling between the pandemic and family emergencies. The owner is a POC single mom with three special needs kids. Even $3 will make the difference for her and her family. Please give a small bit, and share with any friends you know that live in Michigan! The GoFundMe is here: https://gofund.me/d4e01427
There’s more coming as my creativity recovers, so keep an eye out! Also, I try to throw in freebies of recordings and videos as I can.
Stay Magickal, everyone!
