Author Jessica Marie Baumgatner joins Raina to give us all a blessing and happy start to the New Year!
From the author's page, www.jessicamariebaumgartner.com
Jessica’s motto is: Adventure first, then write! When not running around exploring life, she chases multiple versions of herself (4 Kids) and feeds animal babies. She is also the author of The Magic of Nature, Walk Your Path, The Golden Rule, The Embracing Entropy Series, and My Family Is Different. Despite being a walking oxymoron factory: dyslexic-writer, maternal-tomboy, conservative-Pagan, she loves everyone and works for “Evie Magazine,” and “Witch Way Magazine.” She is a free speech advocate and current member of the Missouri Writers’ Guild & SCBWI.

From the author's website:
I love magic. I love the practical kind of magic that makes life easier and happier for myself and my family. I love the awe-inspiring magic that brings me closer to the gods and the world of spirit. I love the magic that tunes into the earth, the elemental powers of fire and earth and wind and water, the passage of the seasons, and all the beings that make up the web of life. I love learning, experimenting, and sharing what I know. I hope my work inspires you to practice and love magic too.
