**** Freebie Friday*****

    Despite all the touring and travelling, Jake lay wide awake in the strange bed in his sister’s guest room. A glance at his phone informed him it was after midnight; his internal body clock had long since surrendered and given up trying to determine the time of day. He could hear one of his nephew’s snoring in the room next door. Reaching for his phone, Jake re-read…

Have you met Jake Power and Lori Hyde?

Have you met Jake Power and Lori Hyde?

With a long sigh of complete contentment, she felt the tension melt from her shoulders. Her first tentative steps onto the beach since last summer. It felt good to be home. It was late afternoon and she could feel the last of the spring sun’s warmth on her skin. She was also acutely aware of Mary’s eyes on her, as she watched from the sun deck. No going back now. After all, she had made it this…

Silently Watching at the Long Night's Moon

Silently Watching at the Long Night’s Moon

  It was one of those rare crystal-clear sunny December days and the air around him was crisp, the cold biting on his cheeks. There wasn’t a living soul to be seen for miles. Eyes fixed on the road ahead, he ran. Mile after mile, he ran hard and fast, grateful for once to be free to run at his true pace, instead of running at a pace fitting of his physical age. He was angry. He was frustrated.…

Salt And Sand In Her Heart (a short story)

Salt And Sand In Her Heart (a short story)

    Closing her eyes, she stood gazing out over the waves, breathing in the tangy salty air. Standing at the top of the sandy path, she could see a shimmer of heat rippling over the sand and knew that the walk down to the water’s edge was going to burn her soft bare feet. A flash of colour to her left caught her eye. It was a dragonfly, a sparkling teal green dragonfly. Smiling, she watched as it…

Introducing…….

Social media and the internet really have made the world a smaller place…..   An American Facebook friend recently commented on one of my promotional posts, drawing one of her friend’s attention to it. The common link here, other than Facebook, is music and books and on more than one level. All three of us share a musical family “bond” – we’re all fans of Alter Bridge and part of the worldwide…

Forget Me Not - a piece of flash fiction

Forget Me Not – a piece of flash fiction

Their friendship had always been unique. “Love at first bite,” he had joked on occasion after their first intimate encounter. An encounter that…
