The Prairie Hen
As a child, the only stories I heard were fishing and hunting stories told by my dad and what my mom told about her relations. So, I made up my stories as everyone else did.In Junior High, I went to the library on my bike with a friend (that's another story) and checked out every fairy tale book the library had. Here is one of my favorites. A story of 'getting it done' if you must do so yourself with or without friends.
Listening to the story you will hear how as all good storytellers do,...

AS IT IS NOW, MAGIC is the third book in the Elfin letters series. The village is set, the Shoppe Keepers have come and now the Villagers find out what the human lassies want as Elfin Magic, which is not at all what the Elves, Faeries, Trolls and other spirits think of as their magic.

Faery Rhyonna's Flight
To Rhyonna a faery flying is the only importance in her life. The beginnings of the story came to my daughter when she was 8 and we were camping with friends at a lake that had, really had, hundreds of dragonflies; that was 32 years ago. Hand written on scrapes of paper, Rhyonna fluttered in the sun and enchanted my daughter and her friends.
Rhyonna is the narrator of her story from her point of view. This is a healing story with uncomfortable challenges, not the cute image of a faery, Rhyonna is a survivor, a girl who wins her battles! NaNoWriMoCAMP,com
