About the author
Jessica Howard writes on energy work, water-based witchcraft, and stone divination across three books for Llewellyn Publications and Moon Books' Pagan Portals series. Energy Healing for Modern Life (Llewellyn Publications, 2026) presents a practical approach to what it calls energetic well-being, aiming to bridge older healing traditions with the pressures of contemporary daily life. Pagan Portals - The Water Witch (Moon Books, 2023) is an introduction to water-centered witchcraft, drawing on folklore about spirits and creatures associated with lakes, ponds, and the sea. Pagan Portals - The Art of Lithomancy (Moon Books, 2022) covers divination using ordinary stones or crystals, presented as an accessible method requiring no special equipment beyond what a reader might already have. Written in the compact, introductory format typical of the Pagan Portals series, Howard's books are aimed at readers new to each specific practice rather than advanced practitioners.
