About the author
Judy Ann Nock is the author of several books in the Modern Witchcraft series from Adams Media, covering the practical tools of contemporary witchcraft. Titles collected here include The Modern Witchcraft Book of Crystal Magick, The Modern Witchcraft Guide to Magickal Herbs, The Modern Witchcraft Book of Natural Magick, and The Modern Witchcraft Guide to Runes, each organized as a guide to a specific practice, crystals, herbs, nature-based charms, and runic divination, along with instructions for incorporating it into spells and rituals. Her earlier book A Witch's Grimoire, published by Provenance Press in 2005, is framed as a guide to creating a personal book of shadows. Nock's books are written for practitioners at varying levels of experience, from beginners to those looking to deepen an existing practice, and they favor practical instruction, correspondences, and ritual formats over historical or theoretical discussion of witchcraft.
