During the month of August, the Literary Coven Book Club has been reading V. E. Schwab’s Bury Her Bones in the Midnight Soil, an enchanting, sapphic novel about three women and a hunger that unites them across distant timelines.
For the past several weeks, we’ve shared prompts and musings about desire, interchangeable identities, and the gardens of our hunger. We’ve been practicing bibliomancy, crafting visual spells from our favorite pieces of dialogue and prose, and now, it’s time to gather!
Join us tomorrow, Friday, August 29th, at 2pm EST for a virtual gathering to share final reflections, questions (we have so many!), and writing shares. Hosted by Pointy Hat Press co-founders, Caitlyn and Kristin, this meeting of bookish minds will be held via Zoom and concludes August’s Book Club.
Book Club: Week 1
If you're a writer, use the following prompts as writing warm-ups or as inspiration for your next channeled writing session. If you're a painter or artist, ritualize these prompts through intuitive artmaking. Use them as guided meditations, cast them as dream spells, or include them in your magical or creative practice however you see fit.
