Every grimoire worth reading starts with what the author actually knows.
Folklore. Mythology. Witchcraft. Writing. The things nobody tells you, and the things everyone should know. Pull up a chair.
A grimoire is a book of knowledge. What’s recorded in it, and how, depends entirely on the person writing it.

About Gee
I’ve always been drawn to the things people don’t quite know what to do with: folklore, identity, the uncomfortable questions that don’t have neat answers.
