I write all sorts, some of it SF, urban fantasy and horror, a lot of it not. Sometimes I can even be funny, so I'm told. My short stories have appeared in the anthologies 'Cold Iron: Ghost Stories from the 21st Century' (Iron Press) and 'Science Fiction For Survival: An Archive For Mars' (Valley Press), as well as in magazines ranging from the literary magazine 'Dreamcatcher' to 'Writing Magazine' and 'The People's Friend' (the latter definitely not SF, urban fantasy or horror). I do regular local spoken word events, and needless to say there is a novel on the go. Do come and have a peep at the blogs, stories and audio at https://www.janeayrie.com - you can even go mad and sign up for my newsletter! Plus the usual social media stuff. All details below. Thanks for dropping in! (Oh, the picture is of my highly critical personal editor.)

Lovely, Rhiannon. I could imagine singing this with my children when they were younger! I miss those days. I can still remember all the words to 'Cauliflowers fluffy and cabbages green...' !

Wonderful imagery. As the fires rage, let us hope that the basilisk is indeed not invincible.

I hope there's going to be more of this! I want to know what good/bad/disastrous/tremendous things are going to happen.
I was wondering - you say the creature rose up to its full height but there isn't an indication of how high that is...
