A Magic Life

April 21, 2016 by cpgronlund 2 Comments

A Magic Life (Written by Christopher Gronlund and Narrated by Cynthia Griffith)While Not About Lumberjacks exists to share my short fiction, behind the scenes I’m always working on bigger things. I’m currently working on the second draft of a novel called A Magic Life.

A Magic Life is about a girl born in the circus in the 1920s and her rise to fame as a magician in the 40s and 50s.

Cynthia Griffith, who edited Episode 4 of Not About Lumberjacks — fan-favorite “Horus” — narrated the first chapter of A Magic Life.

To give you a taste of something bigger, I thought it would be fun to share the first chapter here.
