Magic, But Make It Real - MAGICAL REALISM with Real Tears (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Things are about to get a little bit magical — and possibly a little bit emotional. In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the wonderfully strange world of magical realism and exploring the catalogue of Ashley Poston — where ghosts, grief, romance, fate and a little bit of magic weave themselves together in the best possible ways!
