Practical Magic

Midnight Margaritas Practical Magic
Warner Bros. 1998

One thing from the 1990s that I remember is that there was this huge interest in New Age spirituality, Wicca, and magic.  A lot of books on the subject were published.  Books that provided instructions, talked about countless beliefs, concepts, and practices, books that included or were all about the history of these spiritual practices and beliefs, and even fiction novels.

Is this why I read the Mayfair Witches series or why it fascinated me?

Let's See...No Roadmap? No Problem.

I think I'll do something I probably should have done a long time ago.  Broaden the scope of what I talk about when it comes to fiction novels and the results of adapting them to the screen.

Pages to Small Screens

Exit to Eden (1985)
by Anne Rice

I just must ask: has anyone seen a little-known movie from 1994 called Exit to Eden?  Or read the book of the same name it's based upon?

If you ever decide to sit a spell and read the book, let me tell you this now: you are highly unlikely to utter the words, "Sleeping is fun."

The Fifteenth What??

Witch.

Yes.

The blog posts you see below are the ones I have decided to move from the GoDaddy site and the blog back to Blogspot.  I have my reasons, but you will notice I have retained the original publish dates of each post.  They were my reactions to each episode of Season 2 of Mayfair Witches written at the time, so I want to keep that context intact.
