A thousand lanterns

On the Metro today I noticed a young mother with her baby in a pram.
She was lost in thought.
Suddenly she looked down at her child and smiled. Her face was transformed. Love beamed out with the power to light a thousand lanterns.

Behind the Walls - A new post-war novella

This week I’m happy to announce the publication of my novella Behind the Walls . It is about a canny, resourceful young Catholic boy, the girl he befriends and the courage they find to create a future of their own despite their personal difficulties and hardships. Behind the Walls is flavoured with an element of medieval mystery and is inspired by a rich sense of the past which still resonates in the streets surrounding Newcastle’s City Walls where I was born and brought up. Behind the Walls is currently on promotion with Amazon in paperback and Kindle versions and will shortly be available to order from bookshops. I hope you will enjoy and leave your review on Amazon.
