CHILDREN OF THE TITHE
‘Second Star to the right and straight on “till morning”’, she had muttered, and the figure had laughed as its slender fingers enclosed her small hand and pulled her gently to her feet. ‘Yes’, it agreed. ‘Come, little Wendy - Bird’ …
Heidi was always told that she had an old soul for her age, so when she awoke and found her-self and other children in a world of enchantment and fear, she knew she needed to get home, no matter what the consequences.
Leading a group of young survivors through an unknown world of savage beauty, Heidi has to keep her head and figure out which of the strange creatures they encounter are friendly ... and which are dangerous.
Some she is going to learn, can be both.

STRANGER THAN TRUTH
A stranger follows a woman home at night. A neglected lighthouse lets out a strange blue glow. A headstone lists the passing of a whole family. And somewhere deep in the shadows of an abandoned building, something stirs....
Inspired by true stories, real life experiences, news articles and more, this is a collection of short stories that will chill and enchant. Dip in when you need a little scare, but don't forget that fiction is not always stranger than truth....

"Writing is magic, as much the water of life as any other creative art. The water is free so Drink. Drink and be filled up.”
Stephen King
