Stones. They can be the ultimate precious treasure or most dire punishment. They can be cursed or blessed, bring luck or fortune, found in the bellies of goats or on long stretches of beach. Odds are you are wearing a stone, whether as a symbol of eternal love or as a protection, or simply because it is pretty against your skin.

I became interested in stones while I was writing my YA trilogy, the Josie Jameson series, which is about witches that derived their magic from stones imbedded in their hearts. Interested is too light a word, obsessed is more accurate. Cursed stones; mythical stones; magical stones; properties; enchantments; stone lore and legends. Every culture on the planet has stories of stones that have come to life, endowed someone with power, predicate the end of the world if they are harmed; mark the entrance to a sacred place or portal to another world, and more.

I'll share some facts and tales of high strangeness. Hopefully when we part, you’ll never look at stones the same way again.
