Thanks for reading! If you liked what you read, there are five more stories in this volume. From the description: It’s a world where enough money can make magic happen. Literally. A better body, a better job, a better future - casters are happy to alter reality for anyone who can meet their price, while those who can’t always have the option of turning to more illegitimate methods. But magic doesn’t always come with a guarantee, regardless of who’s casting the spell, making the risks just as plentiful as the rewards. Dip your wands into these six standalone tales of reality-altering ecstasy and read along as: An eager nerd’s limited vocabulary turns the table on him and his friends, giving them the muscle they wanted, along with a few changes they didn’t, in Curses. A skinny man gets the athletic body he’d always longed for, mostly, and quickly puts it to use pleasing his roommates in Action Words. An arrogant caster gets caught taking unapproved gigs, leading to a permanent reassignment as a hunky himbo in Bend the Rules. An ambitious grad student builds a machine to harness leftover magical energy, but ends up harnessing much more with his altered body in Internal Workings. A man gets the inflated endowment of his dreams, along with the exposure of his nightmares, forcing him to adopt a new outlook in The Old-Fashioned Way A man seeking a “natural” alternative to the supernatural gets taken a bit too literally, leaving him with a big, beautiful body that requires plenty of sunlight in Sprout.
