What happens when six creative girls accidentally open a Secret Door to a Magical Realm? It doesn't take long for adventure -- and danger -- to find them! Upon arriving in the Realm, eleven-year-old Shaylee and her friends learn they are the long-awaited princesses of the Six Kingdoms, and each girl has a unique magical power tied to her creative talents. But the kingdoms are in ruin thanks to an evil force that has drained nearly all of the power from the Wellspring of Magic. As if that wasn't bad enough, the door between the real world and the Realm is stuck! It can't be opened again -- and the girls can't go home -- until the magic is restored to the Wellspring. Shaylee and her friends must work together using their creative abilities, such as dancing, painting, and beading, to channel powers they never knew they had and fight the dark forces threatening to destroy the Realm. Their adventure will bring them face-to-face with gigantic grizzly bears claiming to be their protectors, green-skinned fairy folks, a scaly river dragon, vampire spiders, and killer plants -- things none of the girls expected to face during their summer break. Can they master their new powers in time to turn back the dark forces that want to trap them in the Realm forever?

Hello traveller! Are you a writer? An illustrator? A musician? Or maybe you want to be a filmmaker, a sculptor, an animator. Whoever you are, if you are a creator then you are in the right place! Let me introduce myself: I am Sera, your Creative Fairy. Even though I am not human, I look like a young girl with long blue hair. I live in a fountain. In other cultures they call me "Muse", "Guardian Angel" or even "Goddess" but you can call me however you want. I am the one that brings you Inspiration. Those creative ideas that you sometimes have and seem to pop up from nowhere? It is me that bring them to you. But there is a big problem. Even though you get inspired ideas from me, you don't seem to trust me. And this makes me sad! So let me ask you some questions: Do you have many creative ideas, but you don't know how to transform them into writings and artworks that sell? Do you think you have a wonderful inner world, but you lack the confidence to show it to the world? Or maybe you lack the inspiration to create authentic works that will make you stand out from an overcrowded market? If you can relate to these questions, then you are in the right place.

I will help you unleash your Creative Magic, a magic that will make you stand out from the rest of writers and artists. Creative Magic is a different book. Other books about creativity teach you "methods" that only work for the authors that write them, while I will help YOU connect with YOUR own Creative World, so that you become the successful and authentic artist and writer that you always wanted to be. It is your unique journey! I will teach you how to: ★ Get endless inspiration to write, draw and compose your best works ★ Pursue your Highest Creative Goal that you are meant to achieve in life ★ Build a plan to achieve all your creative projects one by one ★ Publish your works and successfully sell your ideas to a lot of people ★ Become a unique and original artist that will stand out from the crowd and succeed And, even more important, you will get a Workbook where you will be able to apply all those principles in real life, from day one!
