Take your readers on a heroine's journey

to awaken their

creative potency

Hello. I'm Catriona Mitchell

I offer BOUTIQUE BOOK COACHING AND EDITING SERVICES for non-fiction that brings forgotten feminine archetypes and their mythologies back to life.

Stories with Spine is for you if...

You wish to develop a book that calls the life force and creative potency of feminine archetypes back into consciousness, conversation and culture... so that we can 're-member' what has been lost, restore our whole-system intelligence, reclaim our co-creative powers, and heal the false split between the physical and the spiritual.

You're looking for a guide to help you capture your deepest vision for your book: a work of transformational non-fiction that brings dormant or culturally exiled feminine archetypes back to life.

Your book will question cultural and spiritual norms, by exploring the rejected powers of feminine archetypes from East to West, the sacred to the profane, the abstract to the anthropomorphic.

You long to see their forms, functions, symbols, motifs and mythologies become part of embodied, living culture. Why? Because we are so much more than we think we are.

You might be writing about the Triple Goddess, Mother Earth, Kundalini, the sacredness of the body,  the priestess, the witch, the womb, beauty, bliss, eros, intuition, mysticism, the life/death cycle...

YOU ARE AN EDUCATOR AND AN EXPERT IN YOUR FIELD. YOUR AIM IS TO INSPIRE A PROFOUND SHIFT IN CULTURE, WITH A BOOK THAT HEALS THE SPLIT IN THE COLLECTIVE PSYCHE BETWEEN SPIRIT AND MATTER, THE BODY AND THE SACRED, HUMAN AND NATURE, THE KNOWN AND THE UNKNOWN, THE VISIBLE AND THE INVISIBLE.

You have a fire in your belly about your book because:

WE NEED TO RESTORE OUR WHOLE-SYSTEM INTELLIGENCE IF WE'RE GOING TO SOLVE TODAY'S GLOBAL CRISES.

Feminine archetypes are essential, not optional, organs of our collective intelligence, yet many have been culturally erased or are lying dormant in the collective psyche. Only when we bring their full spectrum
