About the author
Emma Kathryn is the author of two books published by Llewellyn Publications that draw on Caribbean folk magic traditions. Witch Life: A Practical Guide to Making Every Day Magical (2022) offers spells, meditations, and rituals intended for everyday use regardless of a reader's particular magical path. Obeah: Demystifying the Authentic Magic & Wisdom of Jamaica (2026) addresses Obeah, a spiritual practice associated with Jamaica, and is presented by the publisher as written by a practitioner of the tradition, aiming to explain its history and practices to readers unfamiliar with it. Together the two titles move from general contemporary witchcraft toward a specific regional and cultural practice, positioning Emma Kathryn as a writer within the witchcraft-wicca and occult-philosophy categories whose work is aimed at practitioners and readers curious about Caribbean spiritual traditions rather than at an academic audience.
