It’s the summer of 2005, and Marnie Winchester is in charge. That’s right, her sister Winnie is out of town for a week and Marnie is officially the boss. It’s everything she’s always wanted. Kind of. If her teenaged daughter and her two cousins weren’t getting into the wine … and if her sister wasn’t belting out show tunes at the drop of a hat … and if her aunt Tillie wasn’t threatening curses at every turn … things would be perfect. That’s a lot of “ifs,” isn’t it? Marnie is planning the Winchester family’s annual solstice celebration – and it’s a lot of work – but the real work comes when niece Bay sees a ghost and Aunt Tillie declares war on her meddlesome great-nieces. Marnie has to find a way to keep the solstice celebration on track – and no one is up to the task of helping. The curses are flying fast and furious, and Marnie is running out of time to help a forgetful ghost move on, find her missing magic supplies and prove she should’ve been the boss all along. Note: This is a 27,000-word short set in the Wicked Witches of the Midwest world.
