My stories

Private Hell

It had been this way for thousands of years; there was never a question of boredom so long as new entertainment could be found. The only hell in a purgatory of sorts was to be bored.

"In

almost done;"

Night-time can be Heaven or Hell depending on your disposition. Another poem with your deftness of touch and sentiment. Nicely done, of course Jenny.

"The dark, dread milkman is near!."

There's that underlying, wry humour that makes your stories so readable. All caught up with this one and hooked on the tale. Yes, keep going!

"Letters postmarked Motherwell"

That line made me laugh. That is a veritable box of tricks. Spare bedlinen and towels is probably where we all are, in reality. Adroitly done and made me smile. Paul :)

A gothic-Poe-esque/Irving-esque tale that has me intrigued. I love the prevailing darkness that seems to surround the whole thing. Looking forward to the next part :)

[Should "vailed" be "veiled"?]

"..where each boy had a box for ‘tuck’ and treasure."

Intrigue and mischief. A naughty uncle's trick and a charming tale. Enjoyed, Rhiannon. Paul :)

That's another brave piece of writing. Cancer appears to be a slippery foe. As always, Jean, people in a similar situation will read this and find it helpful that someone can articulate with clarity what's happening along with options and...
