Spun Into Gold
The Secret Life of a Female Magician
A true story of dreams, magic and determination.
This book is for anyone who has ever had a dream.
For anyone who wants to remember how magic works.
Romany - Diva of Magic, performs her one-woman comedy magic show all over the world, and is the winner of the World Magic Awards in Las Vegas. She was also named The Magic Circle Stage Magician of the Year and invited to exclusive membership of the Inner Magic Circle with Gold Star for performance.
But as a chubby little girl, her dream of making it in showbiz didn’t look likely.
This is not a tale of overnight success but a rollercoaster story of determination and persistence—about deciding that you’re going to walk stubbornly towards your heart’s desire and not stop until you’re there, trusting that the next step will appear—as if by magic.
"Bold, brave and beautiful. This book might just change your life.
Romany is handing you her sunlight. Take it."
— Anthony Owens, Producer of Derren Brown TV
