About the Book

Wrightales are original fairy tales written by Lisa Wright for grownups who have never quite grown up. They take a whimsical, once-upon-a-time view of life’s quandaries and travails. The search for happiness and fulfillment is explored with humor and imagination. This collection of nine tales includes the story of a dream deferred, a fable about the search for the secret of happiness, and a Solstice story to chase the dark away. There are wizards and dragons, wild geese and small white dogs, magic and trickery, and all varieties of love.


About the Author

Lisa Wright began writing in the mid 1980s at about the same time she began working at Oblong Books and Music, an independent bookstore in upstate New York. Initially drawn to children’s books, she discovered that her original fairy tales appealed most to whimsical adults. A self-taught bookbinder, she hand-binds small editions of the individual tales, available at wrightales.com. Her young adult fantasy, A World Apart, is also available through Xlibris.com and you can listen to her reading her stories at www.podiobooks.com.
