I'm Robin Rivers. As a storyteller and writing teacher, I explore ancient places, alternate histories, and feminine powers through novels, poetry, and photography. I also develop practices—through contemplative writing, travel, and tales—for you to build a rich inner life like those of the ancient female mystics.

The Sibylline Chronicles is a space for celebrating feminine strength. Here, you can find powerful mythic ways to help you uncover layers of the feminine spirit, slow down, and reclaim our connection to ancestors, language, and place through stories.

As I make my slow pilgrimage through the world, a certain sense of beautiful mystery seems to gather and grow.

Contemplative Travel Guides from Robin Rivers

I have just launched the new Pilgrimages For The Weary Storyteller series. These slow travel guides through France's Loire Valley (and soon, beyond) are designed as brief pilgrimage that can be done in a single day. They include a series of writing prompts to use as journal tools, creative inspiration, or contemplative questions to draw out the stories you long to tell.
