So much sense of dramatic

Posted on Sun, 06 Aug 2023

So much sense of dramatic change! I liked the rhymes at the beginning very much, specially how you have "rain" at the end of a line. Then "A bridge of paper/Crossing chasms to the past" is BRILLIANT. And glad you conclude with "rainbows" after...

Brilliant to find another part of this story! Perfect for reading on a Saturday afternoon :0) How on Earth are you keeping it going alongside the Sir Harry one?
Should this be disturbed? "Willow was pleased she’d disturbance that cat’s...

To find someone you can make

Posted on Wed, 02 Aug 2023

how terrifying! I would have been the same! (interesting how the bees stopped buzzing before you heard it, maybe they felt the vibrations do you think?) There is such a wrongness about sounds like that, as if they are tearing something that will...

I am sorry it didn't work out

Posted on Wed, 02 Aug 2023

I am sorry it didn't work out this year. My flowerbed was not so good, either. As Rhiannon says, weather is maybe the cause, though wildflowers do not like to be told what to do I have found :0) So, when they DO flower it is even more special!...

Agree with Jenny, very exciting! Poor Emily though! Really creepy thinking someone you had gone to for help was watching your home on their computer! And the conversation between Thies and Stacy and Brent is great too

I did feel for you, listening
