Our salon guest is the very magical, Sara Cleto. We published an extraordinary poem by Sara Cleto—‘Needles and pins’—in the third issue of The Orange & Bee.

Sara Cleto is an award-winning folklorist, teacher, and writer and a co-founder of The Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic. She completed her PhD in English and Folklore at the Ohio State University in 2018. Her work can be found in Uncanny, Enchanted Living, Star*Line, and many others, and her poem ‘How to grieve: a primer for witches’ placed second in the Rhysling short form category. You can find her online and learn with her at carterhaughschool.com. Her first book, Fairylore, co-written with Brittany Warman, will be out in 2025.

To participate in the salon, and/or to view the recording, you will need to be a current paid subscriber to The Orange & Bee.
