At the great Belmont Fair, one can buy anything, or so it is said. But as the old saying goes, "be careful what you wish for; you just might get it."Rodolfo rode to the great Belmont Fair to save his father's farm and buy a new life. He paid the old tsigane woman, Grimelda, handsomely for it. Now, years later, he learns what it is he truly purchased, and at what price.A Box of Magic is a tale within a tale; a tale of magic and mischance, of loss and redemption, and of one man's struggle to hold what he most values. I make my living in the world's two lowest-paying professions: acting and writing. While my resume includes stage and screen credits, I've spent the last several years wearing armor, riding horses, and swinging swords with The Seattle Knights, a stage combat and jousting theatrical troupe. My publishing credits include plays, non-fiction articles, and short stories, one of which made The StorySouth Millions Writers Award Notable Stories of 2005. I've written two short story collections and ten novels to date, sold three of them in 2002, and have now re-released them under my own imprint, TFA Press. My first non-fiction project, Alaska Over Israel: Operation Magic Carpet, the Men and Women Who Made it Fly, and the Little Airline That Could, came out in 2018. I also sing and write songs for A Little Knight Music and The Badb. If I had free time (which I don't), I'd spend it with horses. I'm married to artist/fight director Dameon Willich
