authentic spells

I'm reading enough that the Spells on this site are fake and it would yield better results creating my own spells. Can anyone point me in the right direction on getting started with spells?

Many of the spells on this site are fake (for example, everything in the fantasy section is fake), but not all of them are. Some are simply very poorly written. If you are familiar with what magic is and how it works, it won't be as hard to find spells that are reasonable.

If you are wanting to write a spell, I have found this article to be helpful:http://paganwiccan.about.com/od/magicandspellwork/ht/Write_a_Spell.htm

If you are just getting into magic, I'd recommend you study what magic is, and what it can/can't do. If you have studied, just use common sense. For instance spells that make you fly or turn you into something are fake, but simple luck spells or spells with no extraordinary effects tend to be real.

Any suggestions on books I could read?
