F&F Spring 2020 Issue

“It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what.” ~ John Galsworthy, The Forsyte Saga


Just like the dragons in this wonderful old legend, our featured authors have been diligently kindling their creativity throughout the cold winter months ready to breathe new life into it just in time for our beautiful Spring 2020 issue of the Fellowship & Fairydust magazine. We hope that you enjoy reading the fruits of their labours and wish you a transformative and hope filled start to the year.

With Warmth and Blessings,

~ Avellina Balestri, Editor-in-Chief & Beth Amos, Content Editor
