WitchLit is on a summer hiatus while we settle into our new WitchLit HQ and rather than leave a blank space in the feed, we’re taking the old TV network approach and bringing you some summer reruns from our first two seasons. Today’s rerelease is my conversation with Lana Harper. We talked about her New York Times bestselling Thistle Grove series. The first book Payback’s a Witch, has been followed by From Bad to Cursed, Back in a Spell, and the forthcoming In Charm’s Way out in August 2023. It was a delight to talk queer, witchy romance with Lana. If you haven’t picked up the Thistle Grove series, I highly recommend you add it to your to-be-read pile and spend some time in the enchanted small town she has created. 

New York Times best-selling author Lana Harper and I talked writing escapist stories, transitioning from writing YA to adult fiction, and why witches continue to be hot in fiction and popular culture. We also talked about hitting that bestseller list and why it was a doubly sweet victory. 

You can purchase Payback’s a Witch and From Bad to Cursed wherever books are sold.
