Today’s story shows how we sometimes act according to what others expect of us, but that we can break through those barriers and shine bright.
Here, the real action begins, the final battle takes place - between the Academy of the Craft and the 13 rebels. Previously, I escaped from the Academy and then battled some of my former teachers, and trained the new students to help put an end to Karen’s ways of running the school, and her apparent plans for world domination.
I plot a rescue mission - risking my life, as part of the plan to stop the head of the Academy of the Craft from world domination.
I try to escape with the help of my supernatural abilities - hoping never to return to the Academy of the Craft, even though it had been my favourite place on the planet for a few short months.
The mirror on the wall is just a mirror...... right? At least that's what I believed before I saw some strange, seemingly impossible things - through the mirror. And also learnt a great deal about what could come out of caring for and treasuring something.
History and mystery, logic and magic, and a whole new set of stories - coming on the 13th of Feb!
With it, a new segment - tips for good writing in the form of a blog on the recently-launched website!
