The Witch behind the pen

Born under a Virgo sun, Sagittarius rising, and Cancer Moon, Jamie Raye Welch is a mostly solitary (sometimes Coven sabbat-celebrating) Eclectic Witch who experiences magic in nature around her home in the Pacific Northwest.

Married for almost three decades, Jamie and her husband Rick have two fully-grown Witchlings, and nothing adds more magic to her world than they do. Their home is now filled with the pitter-patter of twenty paws, and Jamie is often found cuddling one of her four retired Greyhounds: Severus, Fleur, Kingsley, or Batzy Nox. Rounding out their pack are two feline fur babies - Cobweb the onery Tabby, and Cricket the elusive Scottish Fold.

Jamie survived peritoneal cancer at age twenty-two and was the first in her family to graduate college. She is a Registered Nurse by trade and has spent the last ten years in healthcare leadership.

When writing, Jamie loves to play the eerie melodic sounds of artist Peter Gundry to inspire her creativity. She enjoys her growing collection of crystals, plants, and incense. And wearing her happy pants.
