Alienora Browning is a wonderful writer with a super sense of humor - watch, listen and laugh along with us... I have known her for several years via a group of magical friends though we had never met until the day we recorded this and even then - over Zoom. Please - go sample one of her books - available on Amazon sites.

Warning - there is a little more swearing than usual in this interview.

Alienora Browning was born on 9th January 1958. She moved to Headington, Oxford, at the age of four - and was educated in Oxford until the age of eighteen. The oldest of five children, she wrote for pleasure from a very early age, and was an avid reader too. She plays several musical instruments (violin, spinet, piano and recorders) and has sung in various choirs.

After getting a degree in English Literature, at Aberystwyth University, and doing a year's teacher training course, she taught English and Drama, at Worle Community School, in Weston-super-Mare, for thirty years. A lifelong interest in matters mystical and occult led to an association first with Paddy Slade's loose-knit ritual circle in a village near Bath, followed by several years attending Gatherings of the Light - with Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki's SOL group - in Savio House, Bolington, Cheshire, and, more recently, seven years attending ritual weekends, with The Silent Eye, near Buxton. She is now a member of Andy Cooper's Glastonbury-based Lodge Anubis - and has worked extensively with both the Western Mystery Tradition and the Ancient Egyptian one.

Since taking early retirement, back in 2012, Alienora has fulfilled her life-long dream of becoming a full-time writer - and, to date, has written/published ten books. They cover a wide range of genres and subjects, from mystical to humorous, poetic to erotic, travel-related to literary. Two of them have won prizes : a first prize for 'Under Cader Idris'; third prize for 'Riding at the Gates of Sixty'. All ten have received excellent reviews on Amazon.

Divorced and with a son in his twenties, Alienora has been based in Glastonbury since 2016. She has recently started creating short videos - featuring stories and excerpts from her books - which can be found on both YouTube and Facebook (see links above). Alienora has been writing a personal journal since she was thirteen. The volumes of this fifty-plus year creative endeavour - and there are over a hundred of them! - detail the life, emotions, frustrations, delights and technical skill of a writer.
