Author Biography
Marla Brooks is the creator of The Witch's Oracle deck and has been the host of Stirring the Cauldron on the Para X Radio Network for the past fourteen years. She grew up knowing that there was more to this world than the naked eye could see and found the notion of ghosts and other things that go bump in the night rather fascinating. Of course, you might expect that from a witch. Marla didn't just decide one day that she wanted to be a witch. It's just part of who she is. Her great-grandmother Sophie was a witch, and these things often get passed down in the bloodline from generation to generation.
Before publicly coming out of the "broom closet," she worked as a freelance entertainment writer for various national publications, mainly doing celebrity interviews, and is the author of several books in both the metaphysical and mainstream genres, including the Ghosts of Hollywood series, Workplace Spells, and Animal Spells and Magick; two fiction books, A Bad Case of the Collywobbles and Soul Connection: A Deadly Obsession; as well as two cookbooks. She lives in Southern California.
