Peter's Soul
The door was thick, four or five inches perhaps and made from iron. It felt very warm, hot even, hand hot, you could touch it but you wouldn’t want...

Parcel for you....Part 27
Vanessa laughed. It was late and she was too tired for anger to surface but vulnerable to silly exhausted giggles. The insinuation was absurd and if...

An enchanting video, Jenny
Posted on Sat, 21 Sep 2024
An enchanting video, Jenny and your accommpanying poem too. The sort of grandmother who advises you to have faith rather than telling you what doesn't exist is the best sort of grandmother and a key player in the development of your imagination...

The push and pull of a child
Posted on Sat, 21 Sep 2024
The push and pull of a child's emotions, one minute wanting to please and the next forgetting everything and just getting lost in amusements. I enjoyed the rich descriptions of his world from the window and look forward to more.

I too love the ridgeway, the bits I have walked had plenty of lovely views, historical features and very satisfying to walk on. Trail reflective in puddles appearing, so evocative of this time of year. We've had all the seasons this week. Good...

Posted on Fri, 13 Sep 2024
That was a lovely poem to read before bed. As adults, it's easy to forget about the limitless fantasy worlds which are often level with the real world when we are children. I want to go on a starlit journey.

You do these surreal tales
Posted on Tue, 03 Sep 2024
You do these surreal tales mixed with very real emotional elements so well, Paul. I knew I would enjoy it from the onset. Opening the message, clicking the link, it sounds so innocent but is increasing powerful and dangerous. The idea of having a...

Posted on Thu, 05 Sep 2024
Awful, Maxine, it's such a gut wrenching story. There appears to be an epidemic of crime involving young men, boys, and bladed weapons and we are being let down.

Posted on Sun, 01 Sep 2024
I admire the way which you describe sounds and the tone of voices so that they you can really hear them as you read. It's easy to imagine pirates being realy quite stupid. There's is so much detail in your story. I would love to see it in an...
