I hope readers enjoy Wilhelmina Quigley: Magic School Dropout as much as I loved writing about my misfit witch and her search for belonging. Most people have experienced moments of agonizing awkwardness—just like Wilhelmina. But like her, if they persevere, they will succeed—although not always in the way they imagined. Wilhelmina’s perseverance required sacrifice, but what she gained was greater than what she lost.
