Moms, Books, and Magic

World-building with Kids

Tue, 08 Nov 2022 13:00:13 GMT

As Nanowrimo (National Novel Month) ramps up, Moms, Books, and Magic is diving into a whole new world. Building an entirely new world is already daunting, now how do you fit children into that narrative? Each piece of a fantasy world is a building block one upon the other. (Good thing little kids know how to stack blocks!) To our great delight, we got to discuss the challenge of creating a fantasy world with the author of Tales of the Outlaw Mages, Amy Campbell!

Use your children's creative ideas and get excited about world-building with us!

Writing Characters as Parents

Tue, 18 Oct 2022 12:00:49 GMT

For the fourth episode of Moms, Books, and Magic, we're talking about the realities of writing a character that is also a parent. How does an author fit parenting into a fantasy world? Should diapers be included between the magic? We had the pleasure of discussing this topic with an author who has successfully weaved motherhood into her fantasy books, Isabelle Markus! Her Thief of Destiny Duology has a mother main character.

Set your kiddos up with a show of their own while you enjoy ours!

Writing Spice to Improve Your Life

Tue, 04 Oct 2022 13:00:42 GMT

For the third episode of Moms, Books, and Magic, we're flinging the bedroom door open and discussing how reading and writing smut can improve the romantic side of life with your partner. For this topic, we're so excited to chat with spicy author, K. Elle Morrison, noted for The Black Banners Books and The Seven Deadly Sins series. This episode comes with a slight, PG-13 content warning due to the nature of the topic.

Time for pumpkin SPICE and everything nice and hot!

Community for Moms, Readers, & Writers

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 12:00:21 GMT

For the second episode of Moms, Books, and Magic, we're chatting with huge fantasy fan and Booktok reader, Nicole, about the importance of having a community as a mom and a reader. We also discuss what it means to have the support of other writers as we navigate raising children and characters. When it comes book recommendations, writing questions, and caring for our little ones, it takes a village.

Grab a treat and enjoy a latte of fantasy fun with a raw, open discussion about motherhood as it relates to writing, reading, and magic.
