UPDATED 1/7/2022: Happy New year! I have another chapter hopefully ready to post by next week, in the meanwhile enjoy this Free Short story from Stephanie Vaccaro, a good friend and fellow writer:
Behind the Masque: When Darkness Becomes Light is a story of apparent good fortune that creates difficulties, but those difficulties end up protecting the main character from greater harm. Things are not always what they seem. The tests and challenges we experience can bring us to the next stage of our development. The rejection, the missed opportunity, the unbearable boss can help propel us to new heights we didn't expect and protect us from dangers we never imagined. My first book, The Little Book of Magical Stories: Finding Traces of the Divine in Daily Life, released in the spring of 2020, is a collection of short stories that look at different aspects of spirituality including confirmation, grace, and gratitude. When Darkness Becomes Light continues building on those themes by adding a "What if?" question about the paths we follow.—Stephanie Vaccaro
