Black Magic & Serendipity: Volume One
by Christopher Schmehl
Moeera wants to be a magician in the worst way possible. She longs to make things fly and disappear like the Wondrous Wecks. The traveling wizard gives the girl a look at exciting possibilities. She wants to learn to be just like him.
The wagons from the town fair roll away to their next destination, leaving Moeera with her mother and father. A life of farming and living in the small town of Bucktry awaits.
Time passes. Another fall brings another fair, and Wecks returns to perform again. Moeera becomes his assistant for his end of the week show.
Little does Moeera know, though, that someone close to her is keeping a big secret. This kind of secret is dangerous, the very thing that is leading a deadly blood witch straight to her!
I love books and storytelling more than is sane.
I was born in the 1970s when books were all paper and phones were wired to a wall. Things are far different in today's world. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English/professional writing from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. Traditional publishing houses that I approached just weren't impressed with me, so here I am. I have stories in mind for publication that span several genres. Be sure to give one of my books a try. You won't regret it.
The Whimsies have invaded the land of Oz! Glinda, Ozma, and Dorothy are abroad in the Forest of Burzee. Betsy Bobbin reigns a fairyland full of danger at every turn. Toto, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, the Patchwork Girl, and former king Pastoria must help Betsy protect the realm and thwart the Whimsies!
Two young scouts follow a strange, old man across a bridge into the magical land of Oz. They find themselves caught in a bizarre adventure. It will take every bit of bravery and skill they can conjure to help Princess Ozma and make it back home.
