I’m delighted to welcome S Maxfield as my first video guest on Tarot in the Wild! We’re eager to share about a fascinating virtual workshop for writers that S will present this coming Wednesday, April 16. Scroll down to view our conversation and get the full details.
S Maxfield (any/all pronouns) is a genderqueer, bi+, disabled writer with roots in dance and theater. Maxfield writes primarily young adult fiction in various forms, including comics, flash fiction, and longer works—usually with a speculative twist.

About TAROT FOR WRITERS: CHARACTER MAGIC
Are you struggling with a clear arc for your main character? Have you written a side character that feels too one-dimensional? Are you looking for more depth and texture for a character you know well? All of these writerly challenges and more can be transformed through Tarot! In this 90-minute Zoomie, Tarot reader and writer S Maxfield will introduce the Tarot as a tool for unlocking our intuitive senses, leading to freer creativity and a fresh approach when feeling stuck. Participants are encouraged to join the session with a particular character in mind, as we will use some of them as samples for the workshop. You will leave this workshop with a “spread” (format for placing the cards), insight on using the Tarot for writing, and recommendations for free tools to learn more. Let’s make some magic!
What a wonderful intersection!
