Listening for the pipes and drums…

   Book-a-day until I publish July 15.

Homage to the books that shaped me.

Circus Mirandus is a book that lives in my heart. It is stuffed with so many things that are deep and true.

Miracles. Joy. Grief. Illusion. Loss. Love. Wonder. Serendipitous surprises. And, of course, magic.

I have never stopped listening for the pipes and drums of the Circus Mirandus.

This past year has brought me joy from a deep dive into children’s books, portal fiction, and books of magic.

The pandemic and lockdown made me yearn for escape. And reading those books, the same ones I’ve been posting, gave me that escape in some small way.

I hope these books remind you that Doors are still, always there.  Just a read away, waiting to take us out of our lives and into Worlds of Magic.

My book, The Lost Princess of Story, has over 100 references to these books of wonder and whimsy.

”…this YA adventure is a love song to books and reading, and the countless worlds one can dream themselves into once the Doors of imagination open…” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 Self-Publishing Review

The Lost Princess of Story will help you find your Door.

Preorder NOW on Amazon. Coming July 15.
