Creative Magic
Lucy Pearce
57 episodes
1 day ago

Join prolific author and artist Lucy H. Pearce and her creative guests - writers, artists, creatrixes - for profound and practical conversations about what creative magic means to us. We'll reflect on what, how and why we create, what drives us...and what stops us in our tracks. We share honestly how we find the time and energy to make magic in the midst of life's challenges and why we keep on saying yes to our creativity.


Lucy is known for giving real and raw interviews, and now she shares this form of deep dive conversation with many of her favourite creative people.


The first season of Creative Magic is the Wild Initiations series, featuring her immensely popular intimate conversation series recorded to celebrate the launch of her 12th book Crow Moon: reclaiming the wisdom of the dark woods... She will also be joined by some new guests diving into the themes of wild nature, symbols, initiation and creative magic.

42: Joanne Harris - Writing Magic

Joanne Harris (OBE, FRSL) is the internationally renowned and award-winning author of over twenty novels, plus novellas, cookbooks, scripts, short stories, libretti, lyrics, articles, and a self-help book for writers, TEN THINGS ABOUT WRITING. In 2000, her 1999 novel CHOCOLAT was adapted to the screen, starring Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp. She holds honorary doctorates from the Universities of Sheffield and Huddersfield, is an honorary Fellow of St Catharine's College, Cambridge, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.

She performs in a live music and storytelling show with the #Storytime Band.

She also has a form of synaesthesia which enables her to smell colours. Red, she says, smells of chocolate.
