I walked away from a successful 25-year career as an “advertising seller” for mega media companies to fulfill my entrepreneurial dream as a “business owner and trusted media advisor”. In leaning into my clients’ businesses, I quickly became intrigued by their stories. I witnessed heaps of creativity, motivation, drive, patience and fluidity to push through challenging economic times. I saw these courageous individuals create ideas around a passion, sprinkle it with courage (real or imagined) and pursue that vision to venture status. Inspired by their journeys, I found myself ...

Zelia survived. They had won, but she didn't feel like she had won. The tortured souls of her past and of those lost haunt her more now than ever, as the threat of the elder wizards grows ever nearer. A dragon rules under the dwarves' mountain, but all is not as it seems. The dragon bares a warning, a gift, and a plea that leaves her more questions than answers.

They created her to kill gods - and then they left her with the Elves. Deemed unfit by the very wizards who made her, Zelia’s powers slumber, until she is given an ultimatum. Prove herself. Or perish. Forced to spill the blood of innocents, Zelia faces the darkest of fates. But when the lives of those she cares about hang in the balance, she must confront her makers - or risk losing the one glimmer of hope that has kept her going. Can she create a new future? Or will she forever remain cast in fire?

Wenn wir an Reisen denken, fallen uns oft paradiesische Strände, Erholung oder fremde Menschen und Kulturen ein. Doch nicht immer werden unsere Erwartungen in der Realität auch erfüllt: Die Unterkunft lässt zu wünschen übrig, die Anfahrt war beschwerlich und das Wetter auch nicht immer schön. Ganz anders ist es, wenn unsere Seele auf Reisen geht. In Gedanken können wir uns Orte erschaffen, nach denen wir uns schon immer gesehnt haben, die vielleicht schon immer in uns geschlummert haben. Schon die alten Schamanen wussten, dass das Paradies kein Ort außerhalb von uns selbst ist, sondern direkt in unserem Inneren liegt.

The elves voted to wait...and lost. Now Zelia belongs to the Elder wizards, after they forced her powers to emerge in a deadly explosion.

But when her actions inadvertently cause her friend harm, even that hope is caught in the balance. Will she suffer for all eternity for her mistakes? Find out in this epic tale of elves, wizards, dragons, and gods.

Nearly a century later, this singular talent is recognised as one of the most influential and revered American artists of the modern period.
