Easter, even the word itself sounds full, round around the edges, pregnant with the promise of things to come. Falling in spring, within the swell...

The Vale - Chapter 7
Standing at the edge of the balcony, leaning over, I caught sight of the green Mini turning into the parking area. It was the one I'd see before,...

The Vale - Chapter 6
‘What?’ I laughed nervously, then shrugged and said, ‘I don’t have anything like that.’ Adam shook his head. ‘Of course we don’t need a pass, we’re...

The Vale - Chapter 5
It was so much colder back then, nothing like the soft, Southern air which I find myself gliding through so easily these days. I remember frequent...

The Vale - Part 4 (Adam Believe)
I can remember the exact moment I saw Adam Berry. It was on the first day of secondary school and we had been instructed, via a letter in the post,...

That's funny, Penny. It's so
Posted on Sun, 15 Mar 2026
That's funny, Penny. It's so easily done too. Last summer I put my phone into the washing machine and it underwent part of a cycle, came out dripping wait but somehow survived. His teeth were nice and clean at least and hopefully not bent out of...

Your descriptions are so
Posted on Tue, 10 Mar 2026
Your descriptions are so detailed, you cannot help be transported, especially of the desert at night. 'An appetite for arachnids' ew. These beings are not of this world. Mythical creatures (terrifying ones) but also a bit sci-fi.

Posted on Fri, 06 Mar 2026
I would also have suffered with claustrophia in the ward and been desperate to get out. Seeing people in immense pain is really hard and all that bleeping, I'm bad enough at the self checkout, the bleeps drive me mad! I'm sorry to hear you've...

Posted on Wed, 04 Mar 2026
Gosh Jenny, I'm only just catching up with this. Sounds like you've had a frightening time. I also have an aversion to hospitals which of course is ridiculous because you're only there when you have to be and they are there to save your life. I...

She doesn't have much choice
Posted on Fri, 27 Feb 2026
She doesn't have much choice unless she wants to just roll over and die. I'd go along with a strange demonic manimal, go with the flow when there's nowhere else to go. The description of the desert made me feel hot and exhausted and parched...

Thank you Insert. Auto-correct is an old friend but you're right, maybe I should think about dumping him .

Posted on Sun, 22 Feb 2026
Oh no, thanks Gloskat. No need to apologise. I'm always grateful when readers spot mistakes. I think the part of my brain which deals with those details shuts down when I'm being creative. All the more reason to wait and edit later instead of...

Lots of runners on ABC tales, now we're all long distance writers, same discipline, different pain.
I used to do a bit of running, not much though and as my gardening career took off, I was always too knackered to go running. I do remember...

So pleased you've continued with with, Paul. I've just been doing some reading about witches. Thankfully lone women are no longer blamed and tried, (drowned) for random local misfortunes although in some places they are still stoned and we don't...

Posted on Sun, 08 Feb 2026
Creepiness captured here, the mysterious sound cannot be effectively described, the concern cannot be shared without making the victim of the sound seem crazy. This nothingness has so much power. Great storytelling, can't wait to read the rest.
