Changing Realms: A Novella

By Shona Bradbury

One Woman, Two Lives

Since her earliest memories, Elizabeth has lived two lives at the same time. She experiences the transition from present day California to rural England in 1555 the instant she falls asleep each night.

As a child, orphaned Elizabeth was diagnosed as schizophrenic and institutionalized at a psychiatric hospital in northern California. She convinced the doctors at Marlowe Psychiatric Hospital her delusions stopped and was released on her 18th birthday.

Dr. Philip Sawyer took on the responsibility of her state-mandated out-patient psychotherapy that was a contingency for her release. He is convinced she was wrongly diagnosed as schizophrenic, but suspects she is hiding a delusional disorder for fear of re-institutionalization.

In the other realm, Elizabeth lives as the daughter of an English nobleman in the mid-sixteenth century. She believes a magic spell split her soul during birth which allows her to inhabit two bodies during two different time periods. She hopes to find a spell to unite her soul into one body.
