Stories for living

Beatrice In The Mist

Abstract

It can take years of practice for a magician to learn how to disappear. But disappearing is something that comes naturally to me. I’m invisible, but not because I want to be. I’m Beatrice (in the mist)! People look right through me, as if I’m not even here. This is an enveloping story about standing up for yourself.
