Genre: Fantasy   Excerpt:I got into this business at the wrong time. Now that huge factories could crank out standardized magic components that anyone could use, without even a basic understanding of the primary forces and how to shape them, not too many people were interested in \u201chand-crafted artisan\u201d magic. That\u2019s what the kids called it now. In my grandpa\u2019s day, it was just called\u2026magic.   The Wheel of Fiction Turns. What did it land on this time?Each Season 9 story follows a theme chosen by the Wheel of Fiction. Thirteen spokes. Eight are the themes from previous seasons. One is \u201cTurn Again.\u201d One is a wild card. And three are covered in question marks and will be revealed when the wheel lands on them. This episode landed on REVISITATION. See a story trailer and a (satisfying) video of the wheel turning here: Outer City Magician Find more stories and episodes featuring this theme here: Year of Revisitation.   MERCH!Interested in merch, like mugs and notebooks, featuring my artwork?Please visit my Store page for info on where you can buy: STORYFEATHER STORE   The Store page also has sign-up forms for my two email newsletters: Storyfeather Gazette (if you\u2019d like to keep up with the fiction I create)Fictioneer\u2019s Field Guide (if you\u2019d like writing tips and guidance from me)  Choose what you want.

At center, a person seen from waist up, wearing a coat with a wide collar, a vest and shiny necklace, holding bent arms out to the sides, palms up, and looking up with a crooked smile. A tall pointed black hat sits on the right palm, which is surrounded by a glow. Three bees are hovering above the person\u2019s head. A wispy glowing line surrounded by tiny glowing balls seeps from the tip of the hat and curves around the bees.
