The Skinny Spell

If you could click your fingers and be skinny, would you do it?

Evie Swan has a great life, an amazing job, a beautiful child, and a big problem: she is fat. Evie is desperate to lose weight, but every diet she’s tried has failed.

One day, Evie meets a mysterious stranger who gives her a magic mirror. The mirror is a portal to an alternate universe where Evie’s life is the same in every way except one. On the other side of the mirror, she has the skinny body of her dreams.

But the spell comes with conditions. Evie has three chances to use the mirror, and one choice to make. She must decide whether to be fat or to be thin.

The decision about which body to choose seems like a no-brainer. But Evie’s adventures through the mirror make her choice less straightforward than expected.

Winning the Inner Battle

Bringing the best version of you to cricket

Shane Watson is one of Australian cricket’s finest allrounders, representing his country 298 times.

But in September 2015, Shane was contemplating retirement. At 34 he was still in great physical shape, but his form had deteriorated following a tragedy the year before. Mentally, he was in the darkest hole of his life.

A chance meeting with IndyCar champion Will Power changed everything, prompting Shane to work with world-renowned mental performance coach Dr Jacques Dallaire.

It was a decision that would reshape his life. Shane discovered the keys to a consistent mental process that gave him access to his extraordinary skills once more. Across his career he’d had many glimpses of the right mindset, but had so often sabotaged himself as he lacked the understanding, tools and blueprint to repeat them.

Shane would go on to dominate global T20 cricket, testing his new mental process against the best players in the world.

Warriors’ Descendants

Power of the stone bearers

A looming curse.
A broken life stone.
A good man fights to keep the growing darkness at bay.

Callum, plagued by nightmares of a desolate world, struggles to keep it from bleeding into his life. When he meets the cryptic Vizer, an ancient curse is revealed and Callum learns that he and a group of warriors’ descendants (stone bearers) are at the heart of it all.

He soon finds these stone bearers; and Stacey, Ryan, Paige, and Liam’s lives become entangled in this forgotten war. Callum is left with the challenge of training these new warriors, while they seem determined to tear each other apart.

Will the warriors’ descendants fulfil their destiny in an ancient battle? Or will they risk the fate of the world for a chance at normal?
