Diary of a Sorceress

By Ashley Dioses

Ever since the publication of Diary of a Sorceress (Hippocampus Press, 2017), Ashley Dioses has emerged as one of the leading weird poets of our time, publishing dozens of poems in Spectral Realms, The Audient Void, and the HWA Poetry Showcase. This much-anticipated new volume not only treats celebrated vampires in both history and literature, but other baleful creatures-many of them female-ranging from witches to daemons, from Washington Irving's headless horseman to Lovecraft's Asenath Waite. Throughout, Dioses exhibits the metrical precision, vibrant imagination, and sensitivity to the many different shades of weirdness in poetry. The volume is graced by copious interior illustrations by Mutartis Boswell.

"Read on, fellow traveler. Take the time to stop and smell the asphodel, but above all, to listen to the speech of vampires, witches and fallen angels. Wonder, that Dioses makes their tales so relatable, even familiar."-From the foreword by Kyla Lee Ward
