Disappointed to discover other worlds did not exist in the back of her parents’ cupboard, seven year old Leah grabbed pencil and paper and lost herself in her own magical realms. By the time she was in her thirties, juggling teaching full time with caring for her husband and two sons, those worlds had been shoved into a closet, abandoned.
But those strange creatures she’d created grew restless. Late one night they slipped from their purgatorial cupboard and crept to Leah’s bedside where they whispered in her ear. Whispered of worlds without ‘Belch the Alphabet’ contests. Of worlds without alarm clocks and bosses and marathon marking sessions. And most tempting of all, of worlds without housework.
They whispered of heroic knights riding mythical creatures into battle, of shape shifters defending their territory with tooth and talon beneath a full moon.
And always, they whispered of love and romance.
Unable to ignore their whispers any longer, Leah once more put pen to paper – eventually trading them in for her trusty laptop — and unlocked the portal to her imagination.
