A tale to inspire

Sick of getting rejections? Then this tale should inspire.

Publishers have been ‘spellbound’ by a first novel about witches written by a former accountant and spotted by a literary agent among a pile of manuscripts.

According to The Guardian newspaper, UK author Sally Green, 52, had no desire to write until three years ago yet her supernatural thriller about witches living secretly among us in contemporary Britain has been snapped up by publishers in 36 countries, from Canada to Ukraine, who see her as a potential big hit, with stories that will appeal to teenagers and adults alike. The film rights have been bought by Fox 2000 and Karen Rosenfelt, who produced The Twilight Saga.

So next time you consider giving up, think again - dreams can come true!
