Quirky Fairy Godmother

My passion is writing and writing quirky fairy tales and funny fantasy  for women of a certain age. What would you wish for if your fairy godmother showed up, knowing what you know now?

Maven is now available in PAPER!

Maven Fairy Godmother: Through the Veil (Volume 1) - Charlotte Henley Babb

Maven's life has been a mess for more than 40 years, but now she has a chance to redeem herself and meet a dragon as well. 

Acouple of Reviews from Amazon:

 

Sends Cinderella to the Caterers!! LOL!, December 18, 2012

This was such a quirky fun read!! Maven is a great character! I love the fact that she's middle aged and still knows how to get into trouble! I laughed so HARD while reading this book!

The characterization was really well done. The description, voice, just everything. Maven literally just comes off the pages as a living, breathing matron of witty, think-outside-of-the-box proportions!

The plot is quite good as well! The situations that Maven is put through! OMW! I just couldn't stop laughing. She's the godmother most princesses would hope not to get, but I will say that most of the characters that came to her for wishes, got what they really wanted, which wasn't what they asked for!

If you need a laugh-out-loud read, pick up this one! GREAT book!

A Twist of A Tale, November 17, 2012
By Tammy M Brewer (New Market, TN, US) - See all my reviews
 

Who does not love a good fairy tale? No matter how old we may get, we all wish for princes and happily ever after. What happens when we don't always get everything we wish for? Enter Maven; a middle-age mundane who is down on her luck and down to her last cup of coffee. Relying solely on luck, her "Bump"(intuition), and her last gallon of gas, Maven arrives at a job interview.

Maven gets the chance of her lifetime. The chance to be a fairy godmother and decide whether to grant other peoples wishes. It all sounds too good to be true. Mentored by the temperamental Fiona and trained with the unusual Tulip, Maven may be getting more than she bargains for.

What happens to Maven when she grants her first wish? Can she stay out of trouble or is the fun just beginning. Read this book if you want to learn about magical, mystical creatures. Go to the Twilight Lounge where you can have a drink with a troll or dragon. Transform yourself into any fairy tale character you wish.

There are lots of characters to keep up with in this wonderful book. Read carefully so you won't miss anything. Charlotte really has a incredible imagination. I would recommend this book to anyone who believes in fairy tales. Hopefully, there will be a sequel!
