I think that there is incredible prejudice about witches while there is no prejudice about wizards. Words are very important, and I'm really into destroying myths.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do love that witches haven't really been explored that much. Usually, witches are the little side character... a bad female character that comes in and leaves.
I don't know that I have a fascination with witches per se - well, maybe I just have a fascination with everything that's weird.
The plain truth is that the period I study is the 16th century, and they were absolutely obsessed with witches and spiritual beings.
I don't know what to think about magic and fairy tales.
What interests me is why men think of women as witches. It's because they're so fascinating and exasperating, so other.
All a writer wants is to be read, and people are so flattering and lovely. I mean, there are witches out there as well. But most are so kind.
'The Witch' is feminist.
Witchery is merely a word for what we are all capable of.
I love witches and magic and dress-up and make-believe.
I always have loved witches.
