"Thirty-six years in. I don't perform."
I grew up in a Southern Baptist household where my daddy was Army and my mama made sure the Lord was in every room. Hellfire wasn't a metaphor — it was a weather report, delivered weekly, with hymns. I started doing magic anyway, the kind I found in old books and passed-down knowledge, and I kept it underground for twenty-six years. Came out of the broom closet at thirty-six. By then I'd already built something real.
My practice is Celtic and Norse by blood, Taíno and Santa Muerte by initiation. Folk-first: crossroads dirt, graveyard clay, creek water, kitchen table altars. I work with La Niña Blanca and don't apologize for it. I don't do Wicca, Threefold Law, or the polite fiction that magic is consequence-free. It isn't. That's why it works.
I survived an abusive marriage. That's not the most interesting thing about me, but it shaped the work — specifically why I take protection seriously, why I don't moralize at people who need a binding, and why I can tell the difference between someone in danger and someone who's just angry. I've been both. One requires different work than the other.
I write, teach, and do custom workings for people who want precision over aesthetics — exvangelicals, queers, trauma survivors, people who've been burned by practitioners who hid behind mystique and didn't deliver. You'll get named traditions, documented process, and a practitioner who signs her actual name to the work. Expect concrete instructions, receipts from the dead, and a straight answer when something isn't the right fit.
I've watched people get ripped off for years. Not just the obvious scams — the $5,000 curse-removal hustle, the Etsy shop with a hundred five-star reviews and no real practitioner behind it, the Instagram witch who charges by the moon phase and disappears when you follow up. People come to folk magic in genuine need. They're scared, they've tried everything else, they've got a real situation. The market is built to take advantage of that.
Thornwork exists because I got tired of watching it happen. Every working here is documented. You know who cast it, what tradition it draws from, what the process looks like, and what to expect after. I attach my name to it. No mystique, no vanishing after payment, no vague "energy work" with no accountability. If your situation isn't something I can actually help with, I'll say so before you pay.
Thirty-six years means I've done this long enough to know the difference between what works and what makes practitioners feel important. You're not paying for theater. You're paying for precision — and for someone who learned this in the dirt, not from a bestseller.
Skip the backstory you think I want to hear. Say what's actually going on.
