A Milestone for Pagan Portals: Poppets & Magical Dolls

My publisher, Moon Books, has told me that Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls has reached a big sales milestone, having sold more than 1,000 copies since it was launched.

I want to thank everyone who has made that possible. First, I want to thank everyone who has bought the book, come along to talks and workshops I've run on magical dolls, left reviews, and told me that they have enjoyed reading it. I also want to thank the Moon Books team for encouraging me to write and for all their help during the production process and afterwards, especially editor Trevor Greenfield and publicist Nimue Brown.

Poppets are dolls used for sympathetic magic, and are designed in the likeness of individuals in order to represent them in spells to help, heal or harm. Pagan Portals – Poppets and Magical Dolls explores the history of poppets and offers a practical guide to making and using them in modern witchcraft. It also covers seasonal dolls, from Brigid dolls, used in celebrations for the first stirrings of spring, to fairy dolls enjoyed in tree-dressing at Yuletide.

If you want to find out more, you can view Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls on Amazon, on Moon Books' website, or buy copies at Treadwell's Bookshop. It is available in paperback or ebook. You can also view my earlier book, Pagan Portals - Candle Magic at those sites.

I am currently writing two more books and I will be making an announcement about them soon.
