Out Of The Broom Closet deals openly and honestly with the questions and issues surrounding a witches decision to make his or her hither-to hidden practice of the Old Religion known to family members, friends and co-workers. The author has attempted to discuss this issue candidly, and while offering suggestions and guidelines to possibly ease the process of stepping out the book in no way implies that this step is one that should be taken by all practitioners of witchcraft. Out Of The Broom Closet includes brief chapters on the definition and history of the Wiccan religion but deals primarily with the pro's and con's of making one's practice of Wicca known to others, describing in detail the authors personal experiences in doing so. The legal and emotional rational supporting the decision to bring his practice of Wicca into public view are explained, and some brief comments from other witches who have either taken or are contemplating taking this step are also included.
Out of the Broom Closet is a thought-provoking, engaging exploration of life as a “witchy” Christian. Packed full of scripture references, easy-to-follow suggestions for celebrating the Wheel of the Year and moon phases, and practical instructions for using the magickal gifts of the Holy Spirit, it’s sure to enlighten and inspire even the most skeptical of readers. Miriam grew up in several Protestant churches, but she always felt different or out of place. Drawn to what many consider “occult” practices, she knew there was something more for her spiritually. At the same time, she struggled with the disconnect between what she read in the Bible and what she heard taught by various Christian preachers and teachers. Inspired by her own dad to study the Word of God herself and pray about it, she entered a healing, fulfilling relationship with the Holy Trinity, nature, and her own convictions. Miriam knows that she’s not alone, and she prays that her story will encourage others to let their light shine and follow the path God is leading them down without guilt or fear. A book that could change your life, Out of the Broom Closet breaks down stereotypes and barriers and provides a pure, open look at the joy of serving Jesus as a “Christian Witch”. It will affirm and inspire those who experience their Christian life outside the prescribed confines of the church, and it will challenge their fellow believers to consider a broader understanding of spirituality.

A truly contemporary take on how to be a witch, Rebel Witch is an antidote to the cookie-cutter witchcraft agenda that gives a new perspective on the craft, asking each reader to create a powerful, personalized practice that taps into the current mood of female empowerment and spiritual rebellion. Rebel Witch reminds witches of the wondrous opportunity to jump into experimentation and invent something wild and individual, a practice shaped by their individual personality and life journey, rather than allowing themselves to be spoon-fed. It challenges witches to design a nurturing practice that is truly theirs. There's information about all the elements of the craft, from energy raising, sacred space creation and receiving signs to casting spells, holding rituals, scrying, potions and much more … crucially, in each case the topic is discussed from an exciting contemporary perspective. So, when Kelly-Ann talks about sacred texts, she stresses that you can choose the texts that resonate with you – so why not Alice in Wonderland or Narnia? Maybe you want to move away from the traditional Wheel of the Year and create your own divisions? Instead of honouring a traditional deity, why not construct your own, choosing elements from rock stars, movie icons or fictional heroes? Or embody magical signs in your clothing and jewellery? Creativity and experimentation are encouraged, with tips to help the reader to be inventive. A curious reader with a desire to create an inspired, deeply personal path and free themselves from conformity will finish the book ready to take action and make magick happen!
