CREATIVE CUTS - Magical Book Launch

A Witch Forgotten is a coming-of-age story by hinterland author Melanie Shieldhouse, about a young girl who doesn’t believe in magic … until she discovers she’s a witch. Set in the English countryside against the backdrop of the First World War, the book is for 10–13-year-old readers who enjoy books about magic.

To celebrate the story, Melanie has created a magical book launch event to connect with readers and give them the opportunity to listen to a chapter reading and receive a signed copy of her book. Budding witches and magic-lovers will also be able to browse an enchanting market of witchy wares from other stallholders. There will be botanical elixirs, crystals, psychic readings, jewellery, and face painting.

Printed copies will be available to buy at the event at Dance Art Etc, 120 Currie St, Nambour, Sunday June 16, 9am – 12pm with a chapter reading by the author at 10am. Dress-ups are encouraged!
