Layers: A Collection of Short Stories 

Eight short stories on the power of the human spirit.


Layers is a debut collection of imaginative short stories celebrating life and the human spirit despite the ever-present spectre of melancholy in our lives today. With their distinctive blend of wit and humour, they light up any underlying darkness.

From the Americas to India, from Africa to Europe, and through a range of genres, voices and styles, layers are unraveled, revealing the textures and contrasts of old and new in the environments and cultures of today's fast-paced world. With vivid descriptions, we are drawn into enchanting worlds with characters that leap off the page, leaving the reader lingering long after the pages have been read.

If you like a minimalist and dark, yet humorous look at the contrasts we face in the world today, you will enjoy this collection of mixed-genre stories.

 

In The Christmas Charge: Instead of enjoying their Christmas preparing eggnog cream pie and sipping sherry by the fireside, three batty grannies go on an African safari. At this stage of wisdom in their lives, nothing can go wrong. Right?

In Paths Taken: When her grandmother ‘kills’ a man on a busy town square, Hecate is forced to face her worst fears and use her own unsettling powers to help her. But where will these new paths take her?

In White Noise: All Earl needs to do is hand his work over to his successor. But is it that easy to let go? And where does one hide from one’s inner noise when things go wrong?

In The Old Man and the Donkey: Deep in northern Portugal, an old man and his donkey go about their lonely routine. When an unexpected visitor shows up, everyone is given a new chance of happiness. But have they all been stubbornly avoiding it for too long?

In The Arctic Haze: Since he was little, bad luck has stuck to George’s soles like clingy dog mess. Some of us are luckier. Or are we really?

In Penny’s Purple Robot: A loving father exceeds himself to make his daughter happy after her mother passes away. But can he force himself to face a brutal truth?

In Mothers: Deep in Africa, a desperate mother accepts her own fate, but refuses to face an even harsher reality. Mothers will do anything for their young. And things may not be as they seem.

In Yeehaw: Running from their regular lives, Sam and Patsy end up in an artificial town – Yeehaw Theme Park. Will they find their true selves in this synthetic world?

Beginning (Love and Betrayals Romance Series Book 1) 

 

 

 The story begins in the ’90s at the romantic "Cedars" resort, tucked away in a European forest…

Raised in a safe and sheltered environment, Jenny Wright may have no life experiences, but she has goals and the perseverance to achieve them. When she came to the charming "Cedars" resort, her intentions were only to study in preparation for her med school exams. That is until she meets the handsome Ray.
Ray Benson is career-driven, highly educated, and not used to taking "no" for an answer. Since taking over his father’s business, he has no intention of starting a relationship. However, he has no objections to a summer love affair with a beautiful young woman.
Can Jenny and Ray, two people from completely different worlds truly make love work? Do they even have a choice?

This book intended for adult readers. 18+

Disclosure: This book was published two years ago as “Green Love” under the name of R.James. Since then, the story was completely rewritten and re-edited. If you already read this book, I thank you and hope you have enjoyed it.

Betrayed (Love and Betrayals Romance Series Book 2)

 

 An abrupt end to her romance with Ray has left Jenny heartbroken. She blames herself, but deep inside she longs for Ray’s return. Any hope she harbors for their reunion dies when she learns that Ray is married.
Jenny moves on, but when temptation proves too difficult to resist, she falls into his arms once again.

Ray is delighted to have his Jenny back with his love for her stronger than ever.

Will they be able to let go of the past and start over? Do they even have a chance?

 Hello people peeps.

Does anyone even come here anymore?

I've just replied to a Tweet which reminded me that I even have a blog.

It's been so long since I checked in here. I didn't realise how long it had been until I saw that the most recent post was in June of last year. Shame on me lol.

My books are still selling (not often, & not all of them), but even one now & again has a certain feel-good factor.

I can't say that I'll do better, or that I'll blog more often in future, but it could happen.  😀

If you've ever bought one of my books, thank you, I hope you enjoyed it. It feels great that some of my work has travelled to so many countries. 

My best seller is one of my two Tarot books, Delving into the Tarot.

Occasionally some of my fiction sells, but I appreciate every single sale.

If you're new here, my books are dotted throughout this blog, if you care to look them up.

...  

I hope you're all coping well with whatever your current situation is, regarding the pandemic.

Here in the UK, we've just gone into another lockdown, which doesn't really affect me that much, but will be stressful for so many. 

My thoughts & good wishes go out to any of you who are struggling in any way.

Stay safe, stay well & I hope your finances & well-being are not suffering while this nasty virus rages.

All the very best to you all. x
