Enchanted Anthologies Series - Inside Look

Enchanted Series is an amazing project that many readers would enjoy, no matter what your preferred genre is, and here is why.

HOW IT STARTED

Toward the end of 2020, a group of authors got together to work on a project - creating a collection of stories that would benefit the environment.

The first publication in the series - Enchanted Waters - was published in 2021 and, in the last 2 years, raised over 1,000 dollars for a non-profit organization OCEANA that helps to restore and protect our oceans.

The second book in the series - Enchanted Forests - was published in 2022 and is already at 800 dollars in donations a year later. All profits are being sent to Rainforest Foundation, an organization that helps to protect rainforests worldwide and help indigenous people. The link is for the US branch.

Our third installment - Enchanted Flames - was published this year, 2023, to raise money for the World Land Trust wildfire prevention program.

We will continue to raise and donate from all of these projects as long as they are published. You may join our fan group on Facebook to see what new things are in store.

WHAT THE STORIES ARE ABOUT

Each of the publications in the Enchanted series has a theme. You might have guessed it: water, forest, fire... The stories are of different subgenres but have some element of fantasy in each: fairy tale, magical realism, urban, historical, romantic, mythic, apocalyptic, YA, and even comic. These are unique, original, complete stories for you to enjoy. No strings attached. Just a way to raise funds for a worthy cause.

There are ten different authors in each collection with their own style and approach to storytelling, but all of the stories are clean and suitable for younger readers as well. The main characters find adventure, discover themselves, love, and purpose in life. They struggle, grow, and reach happy endings.

ILLUSTRATIONS

Each of the books comes with original illustrations for every story created by artists. Here are a few:
