Anastasia Greywolf, author of Witchcraft and Love Spells, runs an apothecary in the Northeastern United States. Wherever she walks, it is said a trail of rosemary follows, one that lingers long after she's gone. On days she isn't mixing oils, setting out leaves to dry, or finding her customers exactly what they need, she hikes at White Mountain National Forest with the ruffed grouse and alpines.
