"Believing in Magic is easy, but, for me, Living in the Magic comes from inspiration…

My muses are from Nature and all the many creatures we share this planet with… seen and unseen. 

But mostly, true Magic comes from the people who touch my life.

I currently have 923 songs on my iPod, 532 Books, 227 DVDs, at least 70 Faeries residing in my house, 16 teapots, 6 Bonsai, 3 Cameras, a million yards of fabrics waiting to be made into costumes (okay... that's an exaggeration...) and one lonely gargoyle!"

Vardos and Vampyres

At the beginning of May the weather was pretty dry. The garden looked a little worse for wear and was desperately in need of a good drenching.

How Leafenheim city buildings are created by Pilienu Fairies

I have been visiting the Whispering Library outside Leafenheim city, to gather some information on how the Pilienu fairies build their houses. I was quite surprised to learn that they use the magic of nature.

Perchance to Dream...

Titania's estate sits at the top of a hill, surrounded by sloping valleys and dense forests, looking out over the ocean and its endless horizon. An enchanted prison for our fairy queen, yet a sanctuary to others.

'SILKA' Chapter 2: FIVE YOUNG BROWNIES

I wake up this morning to find five fidgety brownies standing at the foot of my bed. Each less than two feet in height, four are dressed in brown and one in green. The first thing that comes to mind is whether I have enough astralagus tea and gooseberry muffins in the house to accommodate five unexpected visitors.
