Greetings! Do you have spring fever? It seems like we all have to do things in life that we don't really want to do. I know. I have been employed at jobs that were nothing but work! But we are all born with unique characteristics and gifts that are like seeds waiting for an opportunity to blossom and fill our life with passion. I've heard this state of passionate living referred to as "living the authentic self." You know you're there when you no longer have feelings of inner resistance. You're in tune with yourself! You naturally jump out of bed to greet the day. You can look people in the eye unapologetically. You have energy and purpose to deal with the problems in your path. First, it's important to develop a clear idea of what you desire to accomplish in life. During those times when it feels like you are not in control of your destiny; keep your eye on the goal! A rule to count on is that we are inevitably pulled towards what we fix our eyes upon. I can truly say that Mystic Heroine Adventures has been a lifetime goal of mine. My desire has been to create art and stories that inspire women and young girls to live the creative, self-empowered life of their dreams. My first book in the series, Cecile and The Spider Queen is now available for purchase. Book Two, Cecile and The Treasures of Belamor, will be available this fall. So, stay tuned!
This is the fourth issue of The Mystic Heroine Guide to Life, Love, and Everything, an ezine designed for you to share with your daughters and grand-daughters. Free, and delivered to your email box every two weeks, it's filled with stories and tips on how to be bright and beautiful, have high self-esteem and good values - with a cast of characters taken from the pages of Mystic Heroine Adventures.

I asked Bo to make me a kite, and when I first saw it, I was thrilled! It was shaped like a boat with lots of sails to catch the wind. I was certain that I had a chance to win an award for the most beautiful kite.
The night before the competition, I was so excited that I could hardly sleep. Jerome had promised to be there, and for weeks I had been counting down the days. But when the morning dawned, I couldn't believe my bad luck! It was pouring rain! I stood at the window and searched the clouds for even a patch of blue, but there was none. I was terribly disappointed. When Jerome arrived, I was in the library with Bo Jing, in front of a cozy fire. I had to smile when Jerome presented me with a box of dominos, one of my favorite games. We pulled a table close to the fire and before long we were locked in competition. Bo kept score. It was a close race, but I finally won, ( - although Jerome and Bo Jing agreed to quit while I was still ahead!) Bo disappeared into the kitchen. When he returned he was carrying a tray with steaming bowls of soup. "It's called Hot and Spicy Soup," Bo said. And believe me, it was delicious!
When we
had finished eating, Jerome asked Bo
Jing how he had come to live in Belamor.
Soon, I forgot about the rain outside as Bo's tale of adventure unfolded. He told how he had joined a rowdy crew of spice traders and sailed around the world. And as he spoke of the distant lands he'd seen, it felt like I was there. Then he described a big storm at sea that blew their ship off course. They landed on the the shores of Belamor and Bo Jing knew that he was home. When his shipmates sailed, he said fare-well and never left again. "It's stopped raining, Princess," Bo Jing said. We all went to the window and saw a beautiful rainbow that stretched from one end of the sky to the other. "Thank you for a wonderful day," I said to my friends. "I had a great time too," Jerome grinned. "Princess, you haven't opened your fortune cookie," Bo said. I broke the cookie open, unfolded the slip of paper and read out loud. "What seems unfortunate may turn out to be otherwise!" It was such a perfect ending to a perfect day, that we all began to laugh.
First, you will need a good starting line.

I'll
stop the story there and let you finish it. I
can tell
that it's about to start getting really
crazy!
