It’s #BookQW and Cor isn’t sure how he’ll ‘win’. More from Chapter 16: Cor pulled out his mobile, opened a note and began typing what she’d said. “Put that away,” Lady Pina snapped. “But to remember—” “I’ll teach you. Every morning. You will practice. Every afternoon. My third requirement is that your spiritual presence must […]
It’s #BookQW and Cor is ‘down’ for magical adventure! I had to really trim this one to fit on the post, so here is more of this magical scene starting chapter 1: Bonterra City, in the Windborne Britain District Well past midnight, Cor glided in a serpentine motion down dark, tree-lined streets. His longboard’s wheels […]
It’s #BookQW and Coral is tired of the ‘games’ boys play! More from Chapter 8: Ty was cute. He didn’t play games like these other fellows, or even duel. With her magic quashed, it’d be safe to have a little fun with someone nice. It could be a trial to learn if Ty was like […]
It’s #BookQW and Fern makes a usual ‘wish’! More from Chapter 1: It looked ordinary enough, but their bathroom held a secret. That secret allowed Fern to keep two promises this weekend—to Mom that she’d be safe at home and to Gran that she’d be there for their inspection. Pulling out the pouch, Fern removed […]
It’s #BookQW and Fern feels she’s in a ‘vise’! More from Chapter 3: Rescue Guy heaved backward and dug in his boot heels. Her slide slowed, but her body stretched, muscles straining. The guy yelled, “Rip energy’s got her,” at the same time Raven swore and threw himself at her. She flinched, expecting him to […]
It’s #BookQW and Fern’s young mother fought for her! More from Chapter 11: Fern sighed. “I asked, and Mom says she’ll never go back to where she grew up. She loves her work.” “But she kept the magic safe.” Beri shrugged one shoulder. “Having it within reach again seriously changes things. If she won’t return… […]
It’s #BookQW and will ‘candy’ bribe a badger? More from Chapter 16: This was crazy. Clearly, the badger didn’t want her cutting across the meadow. If he didn’t leap at her after that wild dance, he probably wasn’t going to. “Well, how am I supposed to get up there, then?” She jerked a thumb toward […]
It’s #BookQW and will Fern be caught in a ‘dreaded’ lie? More from Chapter 1: “I’m happy you’re spending time with friends,” Mom said, and guilt stabbed Fern. She bent and hugged her mom so she didn’t have to say anything. Mom had allowed her to skip helping at their booth for the weekend because […]
It’s #BookQW and Ty will ‘rise’ to help with a whale rescue! More from the whale rescue in Chapter 28: Ty might not have trained for saving whales or have the skills this Oyster fellow did, but watching had given him an idea. Would it help if I magically hold the kayak? Aye, Piper called. […]
It’s #BookQW and the ‘charge’ isn’t Coral’s problem. More from Chapter 1: “Nay,” Coral said quickly, just as Pearl called, “Point taken for harassing your opponent.” Coral threw her a grateful glance. Spike shouldn’t even consider that a possibility—she didn’t. What trick was he up to here? “That’s right.” Lemon flew up behind Spike. “Penalty. […]
