Posted on Tue, 19 Aug 2025

I loved the idea of the veil, it adds a touch of magic and mystery to your story Paul. It also feels like he's between two worlds. I'm eager to read more, as I'm fascinated by the boy sittting on the outer ridge.

Let's hope Sergeant Argent

Posted on Sun, 17 Aug 2025

Let's hope Sergeant Argent doesn't search the attic, if that's where Aefelthrith has led John Thomas.

Thank you for sharing Turlough...

Your description of Brean

Posted on Wed, 13 Aug 2025

Your description of Brean sands was perfectly accurate, in fact with all the sights, sounds and aromas, I was taken back there in my mind.

I wonder if Billy and Danielle are destined to be together! Only time will tell.

Keep going...
