Download or read book Almost Invisible written by Maureen Garvie and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewel is on the run from an abusive home situation and furtively living at school. After Maya discovers her classmate’s secret, should she tell? Or can she help Jewel on her own? Thirteen-year-old Jewel has been holding her life together ever since her older sister, Charmaine, suddenly left home with no forwarding address. She tried to find Charmaine once, but that only brought her family to the attention of the police. Now Jewel keeps her head down at school, looks after her special-needs brother as well as she can, and tries to steer clear of her parents and their shady friends. When her father’s friend comes into her bedroom one night, Jewel finally understands why Charmaine had to leave home. Soon she is on the run herself. When her food runs out, Jewel chances upon a new place to live — the cupboard of the art room at school. It turns out to be surprisingly easy to live under the radar when you have perfected the art of being almost invisible. That is, until Jewel’s classmates, Maya and Lily, discover her washing her hair in the girls’ washroom at school and making breakfast in the lunchroom. They take her on as their project, finding her places to sleep, fixing her hair and wardrobe — even as they can’t quite understand her terror, or why she is so afraid of seeking adult help. But the girls help keep Jewel and her secret safe — until they no longer can. Told in the alternating voices of Maya and Jewel, this is a thought-provoking and moving story about loyalty, privilege, keeping secrets, and what it means to be a good friend.

Download or read book Path to the Invisible House written by Sloan Young and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2006 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Invisible House Society was founded for the sole purpose of training students of Magick in the grades of the Order of the Golden Dawn whereby they propel themselves into the Order of the Rosy Cross (these orders representing levels of attainment, not to be confused with the societies or congregations that have named themselves after these grades). The Invisible House (IH) utilizes the same structure and guidelines as is used by the A A (Astron Argon), as delivered by Aleister Crowley and George Cecil Jones. After years of initiating and training students, it was decided by the founding members to take the proven methods of training and compile them into one resource. One book. This compendium contains all of the necessary instructions for the Probationer, Neophyte, Zelator, Practicus and Philosophus. Now there exists a comprehensive resource for student advancement that encompasses guided-initiation, apprenticed-initiation, and self-initiation with the plethora of oral instructions and demonstrations put into the written word. Who should use this book? The tasks and dedication necessary to pursue the paths of Magick are daunting enough to scare many prospective students away. Superstition and societal taboo are enough to make others hesitate. Self-doubt, self-loathing, the false sense of obligation to others and ridicule from peers; the list of excuses not to become an Initiate is endless. But you, the daring individuals who take a step onto the path, who follow the calling of your hearts to something more - into truth, strength and confidence - despite what others might think, it is for you that this book has been written. You who have the desire, drive, and tenacity to take that first step and attempt to stay the course will exceed beyond the limits set upon you by your peers, discover and develop yourself into excellence. What does this book teach? The great magicians of every era have endeavored to gather together traditional wisdom and practices, update them with newer information and concepts, and further refine these systems according to the contemporary levels of comprehension and language. While maintaining the structure of the AA , Path to the Invisible House provides a clear and concise breakdown of the journey through the occult mysteries, elucidating points that have been hitherto lost, omitted or unclear, removing much of the ambiguity that is inherent in such writings, and further explaining very complex components of certain grade tasks. The methods of instruction have been refined for greater impact upon the desensitized mind of the current generations and the exercises explicated in general terms for greater application and adaptability, the desirous results the same. Path to the Invisible House has been written sequentially from the first step through to the end of the student grades and shows the student of Magick the ways of self-discovery, self-mastery and enlightenment. Each section provides a foundation and initiations necessary for success in subsequent sections. Followed through to its end, this handbook will take the assiduous student into a world where nothing is unattainable with the proper application of Will. This book puts into simple terms secrets and mysteries that have tested the vocabularies of literary masters for ages. As clear as the language is within this book, there are still subtler levels of information conveyed that act as proofs of accuracy for postulations made and confirmations of attainments described within that will go unnoticed to the uninitiated. Therefore, the value of this book increases with the progressive work and experience of the magical student. The Great Work is not a path for the chosen, but a path we choose to take.

Download or read book Haunted Houses written by Corinne May Botz and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When I was between the ages of five and eight, my sister and I slept in a large attic bedroom. At nightfall the room was filled with gypsies who glided around in clusters. They wore colorful thin flowing dresses and rummaged greedily through my drawers and books as if they would steal everything. I lay in bed as stiff as a board, trying to will myself invisible, praying they would not notice me looking . . . Daylight obliterated the gypsies, rendering them as thoroughly insubstantial as they had been real in the dark. I had a vague understanding that my vision was private, so I never told my family what I saw.” So began Corinne May Botz’s fascination with the invisible, a phenomenon that has profoundly influenced her approach to photography in style and subject matter. For more than ten years, she searched for ghost stories in buildings across the United States. She ventured into these haunted places with both camera and tape recorder in hand; her photographs, accompanied by first-person narratives, reveal a rare glimpse into American interiors, both physical and psychological. This book includes more than eighty haunted buildings, from the legendary to the ordinary, including Edgar Allan Poe’s house in Baltimore, a New Jersey tavern, and a Massachusetts farmhouse, a log cabin in Kentucky, and a number of private residences. The text includes ghost stories told to the author by those who lived through the moving rugs, creaking floors, apparitions, disappearing—and reappearing—objects, cries in the night, mysteriously burning candles, and other unexplained occurrences.

What happens to the mind of boy facing real horror? What goes through the mind of a girl just existing? What kind of an epic battle is really possible to win? Five stories that are certain to touch, move, and in some cases even anger. 1.

However, amongst the rubble still stands the Elsinige Cathedral, where the young Lord Jean Krell and his first Knight Pierre, fought a battle against Lord Rismund Krell. The eldest brother Rismund, has sold his soul to the black arts of sorcery and alchemy, and in order to have immortality, he must kill his younger brother. During the first battle, all of Jean Krell’s men fought bravely and lost their lives, except for Sir Pierre. How will the young Lord and his first knight defeat the heartless monster and his evil minions when they return for blood? 2. FROZEN IN TIME: Young Adult Tale of Mystery and Suspense Two boys, Stew and Jared set out to play on a warm, sunny day in their familiar surroundings. As they spend the day playing several “backyard games,” Jared decides to tell Stew about a voice he hears coming from the storage house, near where they were playing. They become curious and decide to listen closely and see if they might hear that same voice. The voice is now much too real for them. But together, they finally muster up the courage and face whatever it is, once and for all. Will Stew and Jared have each other’s back or is someone just playing a trick on them? But what is it that has them frozen in their steps? They are not alone, that’s for sure. 3.

She takes a look around at her surroundings and ponders at the idea of how she got to The Sandalwood Motel in the first place. She wonders how she became so comfortable in a clearly unordinary place. Some of which call it paradise and others a sleazy motel. She struggles to find meaning in her life and in the life others. She can’t help but to occupy her time and thoughts by examining her neighbors closely and the crazy life of many that have checked in and out of The Sandalwood Motel. 4. SCATTERED THOUGHTS: A Young Adult Short Story Donny was a projectionist at the local movie theater. The only problem was each film reel had to be started on time and time management was defiantly not his strong suit. On this particular day Donny not only was an hour and half late for his shift, but feeling a little on the disgruntle side. His employee file had already been filled with write ups and who knows what else he was doing wrong. But today was different. He felt he had a sense of seniority and let his egotistic thoughts take over the best of him. Everyone knew something was different about Donny but didn’t expect this to be his last day at work. What could have possibly sent him off the edge? 5. THE BEAST WITHIN: Young Adult Werewolf Short Story While trying to get home one night, Justin keeps hearing sounds in the distance and what should be a short walk home, changes his life forever.

She decides to take him away to a trusted and safe area in order to find out the truth. What will the truth bring? Will it be something that Justin and Phoebe can handle or will it be too much to keep a secret?
