Cameroonian Magic 《ONC 2023》

Gabriella is a just an ordinary tourist in Cameroon but something mysterious happens when she notices something in a camera image. Is she going crazy or has magic taken hold? Will her holiday gain new meaning after she unravels the mystery? And what will happen when she has to return home?

Join her on this adventure to find out that magic could be closer than you think. This is a magical fantasy set in Cameroon and England. All photos within the story are taken by me, the cover uses a stock photo from canva. This is my own work which was inspired by my recent visit to my in-laws in Cameroon. I was deeply affected by the unbalanced society, with many people living in poor conditions while nearby others live in relative luxury.

There are many issues in Cameroon which need to be solved and I hope that reading this story will inspire people to do more to help the environment and people less fortunate.

This story has been written for the Open Novella Contest. ONC2023.

'As a tourist in a foreign country you were just snapping pictures. Later that night you go through your camera roll and was shocked to your core when you saw what you caught on camera.'
