Juliet Marillier - Folklore, fantasy and stories that heal

Send us Fan MailJuliet Marillier is an award-winning historical fantasy author who grew up surrounded by Celtic music and stories. Her own Celtic-Gaelic roots inspired her to write her first series, the Sevenwaters Trilogy, a reimagining of The Six Swans fairy tale. Juliet has been a full-time writer for more than 20 years and her work is published internationally. Her lifelong interest in history, folklore and mythology has had a major influence on her writing.

Her stories focus above all on the personal journeys of the characters, and the human characters’ relationship with the natural world plays a significant part. In this episode of Not the Plot Juliet speaks with host Teena Raffa-Mulligan about her writing life, Druidism, canine companions, and the power of story telling to teach and to heal.To find out more about Juliet and her books, visit her website at Home - Juliet Marillier Author Thank you for listening.Find out more about Not the Plot host Teena Raffa-Mulligan at https://www.teenaraffamulligan.com or follow her FB author page https://www.facebook.com/TeenaRaffaMulligan You can also sign up for her occasional newsletter at http://bit.ly/2gqsJz3
