ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Izzy, a young apprentice, is learning the craft from Nana Pat, a formidable witch who seems to know far more than she lets on. When Izzy arrives for another lesson, she discovers that Nana Pat has something very different in store for her.
As the lesson unfolds, Izzy is forced to confront the true nature of the power she is learning to wield—and what it might mean to become a witch. Blending dark magic, witchcraft, supernatural horror, and a touch of dark humor, “Witch” is a story about power, temptation, and the choices that come with discovering what you are capable of.
Mark Speed has been writing stories since the birth of ink. His stories vary from dark as death's shroud to comical and ridiculous.
Recently, Speed has been working with an artist in writing a story a week, moving through the alphabet, and has written two collections - Sodom's Alphabet, Gomorrah's Alphabet.
“Witch” is part two in a series. Listen to the first part--"The Cauldron" here.
The Kaidankai Podcast features original short fiction exploring horror, fantasy, science fiction, and the strange.
