I'd like to visit Doon (from Lori Langdon and Cori Corp's Doon series). There's pizza and Scottish princes and an amazing spell cast over the town by God. I'd also like to visit Narnia - they have unicorns! And of course, Santa Clause and Aslan :) Third, I'd like to visit Dryzza from the Dryzzian Legends series to get an even closer look at Sonji (a magic white mare) and the unique desert kingdom where folks can meet the Creator in person.(less)

“Today I am not the girl who's parents didn't love her. Or the women who's crazy. Or the aunt who can't keep a job.
I am the girl who can see what no one else can.
I matter, At least this once.”
Kara Swanson, The Girl Who Could See

“So many books, so little time.”
Frank Zappa

“I have value and worth because I am made by the Creator. He is the one who gives me value, not them. Nothing he makes is worthless, and that applies to his children as well.”
Sarah Beran, The Swan and the Slipper

“If the Creator of the Universe can form a whole world out of nothing, then surely He is capable of creating beauty out of brokenness.”
Sarah Beran, Beauty from the Beast
