Bear it All

Bear it All

I wanna see an episode of Celebrity Bear Jeopardy because I wanna see how smart the average bear is. What is Yogi really bragging about? I haven’t seen a think tank of bears at MIT or a group of astrophysicist bears at the Houston Headquarters of NASA or being certified by the AMA to conduct [...]

Dream Murder

Dream Murder

He did not want to go home. He stared at the table in front of him as the shadows gathered, the hustle of the city slowing down as the night hawkers set up. He sat there as the sounds around him changed in tones and volumes. Why bother to go home he asked himself, should [...]

A Dress To Die For

A Dress To Die For

It’s been a year now since I opened Flashback, my vintage dress shop. Before that I had a stall on Portobello Road, but that was hard going, especially in the winter, having to haul the clothes in and out of the van on freezing dark mornings then having to stand around in the cold all [...]

I am a Scared Little Girl

I am a Scared Little Girl

Once upon a time there lived a lovely, yet very lonely, broken-hearted little girl. She had green eyes that sparkled when she smiled and red hair to match her feisty attitude. But the one thing that set her apart from all the other pretty faces was her heart. You see for several years this girl [...]

Beyond Infinity: Behind the Brick Wall

Beyond Infinity: Behind the Brick Wall

Scientists say our brains are sort of like super-sophisticated computers and that everything we have experienced since birth, and maybe even before that, is stored away in our hard-drives. People under hypnosis have described in detail events from early childhood; parents and other adults present when the events occurred later confirmed the accuracy of the [...]

Time Enough

Time Enough

The light of early dawn woke him as its first rays caressed his closed eyes. Today was an auspicious one for him. It was the day when he would set out on his inevitable journey. All his life he had been preparing for this very day. He wasn’t filled with dread over it, far from [...]

The Story Whose Name Shall Not Be Mentioned.

The Story Whose Name Shall Not Be Mentioned.

This is neither the famous William Shakespeare play, that is not mentioned in the theatre. Not is it as you might think a ghost tale by Rudyard Kipling. This is the story of one of my stories, amongst my close friends we know it as THAT story. As I cannot think of it without cringing. From [...]

Location, Location, Location (a letter to my son)…

Location, Location, Location (a letter to my son)…

My Dearest Son, I thought about what you said all the way home.  My son you are right where you are meant to be. You are not even one day behind.  You are so much farther than so many young men your age. You have so much going for you my son. I am so [...]

Ski-lift Horror

Ski-lift Horror

I had always been afraid of heights since falling from a school climbing frame when I was about 5 years old. Here I was in the worst case scenario I could have ever imagined. Beyond the realms of nightmares, trapped half on and half off a ski-lift heading up the mountain over the Rhine with [...]

Behind a White Curtain

Behind a White Curtain

It was quite bright and tranquil the day it begun, snow lazily falling and blanketing the world in a soft downy blanket of fluff, drawing a white curtain over all the ugliness of the world. However, there was a dark storm brewing somewhere, deep within the breast of one soul.  For some reason he came [...]
