Fortune's Girl

Thinking back on my own love for the author Dion Fortune, I created this story about a teen's spiritual journey after discovering her empowering books. That part is true. But this particular tale is about fictional Effie Thomas, who likewise stumbles across books written by Dion Fortune that not only transform her life, but set her on an otherworldly adventure in search of meaning. Though wishing she'd meet people like the beloved characters that she read about, Effie eventually meets several like-minded people in her own town, who guide her through dangerous encounters and newfound abilities. Only by finding her own voice through writing about her experiences does she make sense of it all, and she ends up being a conduit for those who are ready to find their own personal adventures.
