I am very excited to announce that our baby is finally home. I have taken back the literary rights to What We’ve Forgotten – Lunch the production collective I founded in 2009 will be it’s new home – more on this soon as we are excited as a collective to share what is coming for not only our collective of artists, authors, musicians and creators – but all artists, creatives, musicians and authors. Lunch was founded to as a healthy alternative and we will be investing again at a time where we need to Fight The Power (as our pal Chuck D would say).
This means the audiobook, e-book and second edition will be coming your way to the whole world! I am so grateful that we were able to be in market in US and Canada for December 2023 and 2024. I am even more excited for this work to have found a home with Lunch and being able to go global in 2025. Paul Reubens taught me how important it is for creators to maintain rights to their works. Having all rights for literary return globally is a celebration! So I wanted to share a free gift. Chapter 1 of the audiobook. The audiobook will be released March 10 but I wanted to gift a free chapter right now. No rights protection. MP3. Feel free to share it. That’s what it’s for. Though please don’t drive while you’re listening to the ritual part (with the rattle)
First out will be the digital delivery – first of all as a tribute to where my career began (on the internet) but also less cost, less climate implications. . I’ve told you What We’ve Forgotten is an interdimensional adventure, some of you have discovered what that means, but the audio is the spell. So If you already have the book, enjoy a read-a-long.
As I was moving through production of the audiobook I asked if some of my dearest and most magical musician friends (including my husband) if they would consider giving me feedback on the recording. If you’ve been in ceremony with me you know, It’s as musical as it is magical. Sound and vibration are part of my work, this work – so incorporating sound was crucial to the work…
Once they listened to it they all separately (by magic) told me that I should make an album. Not what I’d expected but I am a breadcrumb follower, and a community listener. So we are making a witch album. I had been telling people I wanted to release the audiobook like an album but I didn’t realize what exactly that meant until my community of creators reflected it back at me.
Not only did they agree to listen to the audiobook, they expressed interest about collaborating on an album. What We’ve Forgotten : Enter The Temple. was born. I cannot wait to tell you more soon about who is part of this project for now that’s something to look forward to – an album for revolution and collective liberation brought to you by a collective of revolutionaries and sound sorcerers… 😉
A channeled spell for our times inspired by What We’ve Forgotten coming Summer 2025
Speaking of inspired, the gift of taking back the literary rights is being able to produce a special second edition of the printed book and oracle deck. The first editions are no less special, but the second edition will bring even more magic. I am so lucky to be collaborating with an incredible team which is bringing together people from throughout my creative career.
Talk about finding the others. So we’re really bringing the band back together and I can’t wait.
It's time for revolution. :)
In light, and service,
-Amy
