Literary Bruja.

By Juliet Diaz

Writing is how I make sense of the world. Here, I share reflections on life, books, and writing + reporting from the literary scene — lit events, lit activism, calls to action, etc.

The added element of + reporting from the literary scene — is about bringing you deeper into my world as an author. I want you to see more of my writer’s life—how I network, connect, and show up in literary spaces, especially through my work with the

Literary Craft Society

.

It’s also about using my platform to highlight and support indie bookshops, authors with marginalized voices, and events or communities that are doing important work. I want to take you behind the scenes—to the festivals, panels, award shows, and any space where literature is being celebrated or challenged and share what I see, hear, and learn. Think of it as coming along with me —reporting back.

I’m a neurodivergent indigenous Taíno and first-generation Cuban American, as well as an award-winning, internationally bestselling author, and literary activist.

As the co-founder of the Literary Craft Society, I lead a revolutionary writing community dedicated to fostering change, healing, and liberation through the transformative power of words.

My writing is rooted in liberatory and decolonial themes, empowering others to reclaim their voices, align with their truth, and embrace their innate magic and humanity.

My works, including The Altar Within: A Devotional Guide To Liberation, Witchery: Embrace the Witch Within, Plant Witchery, The Seasons of the Witch Oracle Deck series, and The Earthcraft Oracle Deck, have inspired thousands across the world to create meaningful change within themselves and their communities.
