Watkins and our cookery imprint Nourish are all about authenticity, authority, cutting-edge approaches to wellbeing and outstanding design. We’re looking for writers who have something new and interesting to say and who are sincere and passionate in what they do. You absolutely don’t have to be an experienced writer to publish with us – we love nothing more than encouraging new authors to develop their writing skills and get their message out to the world! 
From a personal commissioning perspective, I’m fascinated by the current resurgence in interest in folklore, folk tales, standing stones, herbalism, psychedelics, witchcraft, the occult, paganism, seasonal celebrations and access to nature, especially when these offer new and more inclusive ways of envisioning our communities. I believe our current era will be looked back as a golden era for alternative thinking and I want to publish the books that capture that! I’m also very interested in the wisdom of non-western cultures as expressed by voices from within those traditions.
