However, she keeps her work and her dream about one day becoming an author secret from her preoccupied parents. When a mysterious old woman gives her an odd-looking bronze pen, strange things begin to happen. Suddenly, the words that Audrey writes on the page seem to be coming true, blurring the line between fiction and reality. With the help of a new friend, Audrey explores the possibilities of her magic-making pen, builds her confidence in her creative abilities, and searches for a way to write a happily-ever-after ending for her family.
