Move Over Tinker Bell, There’s A New Fairy In Town!
Ben’s luck is changing. He has his iconic VW bus, a hot, wealthy girlfriend, and he’s managed to buy an old fixer-upper in an upscale neighborhood—just the thing to convince his girlfriend’s influential father that he’s husband material. But his new home has a secret, and when Ben opens a mysterious grandfather clock, he finds himself dropped into a magical land. There he meets Pringle, a six-inch prawn with a supercharged attitude and a pouchful of fairy dust. She saves his life, and when Ben returns to his world, Pringle returns with him.
Pringle’s adjustment to the modern world is a hilarious series of incidents that completely disrupt Ben’s life. When Russian mobsters and a vengeful HOA president attempt to hijack Ben’s life, Pringle zooms to the rescue—a pinch here, a pinch there, nothing a little fairy dust can’t fix.
But it’s when Pringle begins to grow that things really get interesting, because as Pringle’s size increases, so do her feelings for Ben. Ultimately, Pringle must decide whether to return to her world—or follow her heart and stay with Ben.

Michael is joined by the Underground Authors to create this one-of-a-kind anthology - Beyond The Sea: Stories From The Underground
One photograph - A single image - A lonely boat on the edge of sea
Is it adrift? - Was it abandoned? - Did it wash ashore? - Was anyone aboard? Did someone leave it behind? - Is anyone coming back? - Who knows.
The sea has washed the footprints away.
Look at the vessel and think: “If that old boat could talk, what stories it would tell.” Wonder no longer. Twelve members of Underground Authors all gazed upon the same image. And to each the photograph told a different story. Same boat. Same image. Different genres.
From mystery and technothriller to romance and magical realism, from horror and historical fiction to fantasy and suspense with a little paranormal thrown in for good measure.
These stories are presented in Beyond The Sea and are the handiwork of award-winning authors C.J. Peterson, Cindy Davis, Rox Burkey & Charles Breakfield, CW Hawes, Richard Schwindt, Ronald E. Yates, Kelly Marshall, N.E. Brown, Linda Pirtle, James R. Callan, Michael Scott Clifton, and Caleb Pirtle III.
The stories are all different as the boat had more than one secret to tell. It had a dozen.
The Underground Authors decided to dedicate the proceeds from 2021 sales of Beyond The Sea to a group that supports communities. Team Rubicon. To learn more about them, go to: https://teamrubiconusa.org/
