Trish Telesco is the mother of three, wife, chief human to 5 pets, and a full-time professional author with numerous books on the market. These include the best selling Goddess in my Pocket, How to be a Wicked Witch, Kitchen Witch's Cookbook, Little Book of Love Magic, Your Book of Shadows, Spinning Spells: Weavng Wonders and other diverse titles, each of which represents a different area of spiritual interest for her and her readers.
Trish considers herself a down-to-earth Kitchen Witch whose love of folklore and world-wide customs flavor every spell and ritual. While her actual Wiccan education was originally self trained and self initiated, she later received initiation into the Strega tradition of Italy, which gives form and fullness to the folk magic Trish practices. Her strongest beliefs lie in following personal vision, being tolerant of other traditions, making life an act of worship, and being creative so that magic grows with you.
Trish travels minimally twice a month to give lectures and workshops around the country. She (or her writing) has appeared on several television segments including Sightings on muli-cultural divination systems and National Geographic Today Solstice Celebrations. Besides this, Trish maintains a strong, visible presence in metaphysical journals including Circle Network News, and on the internet through popular sites like www.witchvox.com (festival focus), her interactive home page located at www.loresinger.com, & yahoo club www.groups.yahoo.com/groups/folkmagicwithtrishtelesco, and various appearances on internet chats and bbs boards.
Her hobbies include gardening, herbalism, brewing, singing, hand crafts, antique
restoration, and landscaping. Her current project is helping support various
neo-pagan causes including land funds for religious retreats.
