The runes of the Elder Futhark were used by ancient Germanic shamans for divination centuries before they came into use as a writing system. Now, novelist and shamanic practitioner Marc Graham brings these tools of the ancients into the twenty-first century. Using a combination of cards, tiles, and dice, writers (and storytellers in any medium) can silence the inner editor and tap directly into the realm of the Muses, the Source of Story.

Runes for Writers provides an introduction to the ancient Norse Runes and presents a number of practical exercises to tap into the creative unconcious. Using specific layouts, or runecastings, you can quickly develop character sketches, develop and troubleshoot scenes, even create a broad outline of your entire story.

A companion to the Runes for Writers story-development system, this book is your guide into the fascinating world of deep, intuitive storytelling.

Industry Reviews

Using Runes for Writers is not only a lot of fun, but helps break loose a lot of creativity. A lot of times when I'm writing I find that I become rigid and get some tunnel vision. Using Runes breaks loose all sorts of interesting options and alleyways to go down.

LS Hawker, USA Today Bestselling Author

The All-Father wove the skein of your life a long time ago. Your fate is fixed. Or maybe he was just telling a story. What Marc Graham has done with his Runes for Writers system is simply wonderful. He's adapted an ancient system into a powerful tool for brainstorming and storytelling. Runes for Writers is easy to learn, fun to use, and unshackles your creativity. The Runes remind you that, no matter where your imaginary adventures take you, the All-Father sees everything.
