Episode 608: The Healing Magic of Writing with Francesca Lia Block

Sex Magic Podcast

Lovers and friends, a deliciously inspiring episode awaits you today. On this week's podcast episode, Toska sits down in conversation with the magical and illustrious author, Francesca Lia Block. We talk about how magic weaves into storytelling, her book, “The Thorn Necklace: Healing Through Writing”, Venus rituals, exploring alt-identities through crafting characters, etymology, love spells, the magnetism of Los Angeles, sipping strawberry “Rita-Hayworth”s, the power of sharing our stories with the collective, and SO much more. It was such an honor to have Francesca on the show. Cozy up and tune in.

Francesca Lia Block is the bestselling author of more than twenty-five books of stories, nonfiction, and fiction, including the Weetzie Bat books, her series of magical-realism novels. She has received the Spectrum Award, the Phoenix Award, the ALA Rainbow Award, and the 2005 Margaret A. Edwards Lifetime Achievement Award, as well as other citations from the American Library Association, the New York Times Book Review, and Publisher's Weekly.
