Free Short!

On my subscribestar page, I have a short story I came up with a long time ago, now. It's an Earth-based, Pern-inspired universe, with a dollop of the Primeval TV series in the UK. I hasten to add that this was written long before I knew of the Primeval series! :)

Enjoy!

Morning Skies

Up at my Subscribestar Page, I have a poem I wrote sometime in the early 00's, when a Certain Friend first got me to start writing it. It came while I was driving herself to work in the morning.

The Madness of crowds

The current insanity gripping the western world is deftly addressed by We Are Change:

Is it just me, or has the World Officially Gone STARK RAVING NUTS?! After stewing for a few days, I finally took my friend Sarah's advice, and took to poetry. Up at my Subscribestar page, I have my first proper attempt at a sonnet!

Elf music

Hi again, anybody!

The channel I mentioned in my last post never ceases to amaze. Another of their tracks is a setting of The Song of Beren and Luthien. This song is so exquisite, it's like musical paracetamol - it has a miraculous ability to lift my mood and deaden any bad stuff going on.
This isn't the only elf-themed song - there are a series of 3 devoted to Earendil, as well! They have others devoted to Boromir and Hobbits, and a set of devotional settings of Easter and Christmas hymns.

Dwarf Music

I have just discovered a choir channel called Clamavi de Profundis. Their vision of Tolkien's legendarium is so good, I'm sure The Professor himself would heartily approve!
One of my favourits tracks is the Song of Durin. Listen, and be transported!

Chapter Extract, The Retribution of Thengon

Hi, all.

On my Subscribestar page is an extract from the first chapter of the sequel to The Ironwood Staff, The Retribution of Thengon.
It's a paid-for post, so you'll have to subscribe to see it - come on, it's less than £1 a month! Thank you!

New writing sample

As a sample of what I get up to, there's a short story up on my Subscribestar page, which describes a rather fun and very realistic dream I had once.

Enjoy!
