The Ordinary Bruja

For fans of Mexican Gothic and The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina, The Ordinary Bruja is a psychological horror and magical realism novel about grief, ancestral secrets, Dominican brujería, and one woman’s fight to reclaim the magic her family tried to bury.

When strange messages appear in mirrors, and the scent of cigar smoke follows her through her small Ohio hometown, Marisol Espinal must confront the ghosts of her past, the truth about her mother’s death, and the family curse waiting for her on Hallowthorn Hill.

Her family buried the magic. Now it wants out.

Resilience and Diplomacy: The Unyielding Spirit of Ukraine and Personal Endeavors


As the sandcastles of my youth stood defiant against the relentless waves at Boca Chica, so does the spirit of Ukraine persist against adversity. Our latest Have a Cup of Johanny episode reflects on the resilience required to protect what we cherish, whether it’s a nation’s sovereignty or the fruits of our own labor. By exploring the parallels between personal endeavors and the global stage, we uncover the importance of preserving our creations and the power of unwavering resolve.

Venturing beyond the battlefield, we examine how modern conflicts like that in Ukraine reshape the importance of diplomacy and question the effectiveness of military might. Without guests to interrupt the flow, this discussion delves into the intricacies of leadership, technology, and the potential shift toward diplomatic resolutions in an era where aggression is increasingly costly. Join us as we bridge the gap between the individual’s desire for growth and the complexities of international relations, all while fostering a season of insightful growth and understanding.
