Stories From Me

I've been trying to sort out many things from last year, so to clear the decks for fresh writing. I'm currently working on Weird: A Henry Ian Darling Oddity: Missive Four and a new novel called, Changing Angels - when my brain lets me.

Depression has brought me into that familiar vat of treacle but I'm fighting as much as I can. The fact that I can't sell my work or find reviews makes things even more difficult and Amazon seems hell-bent on stopping independent authors from succeeding.

However, I love writing so much (reading, too) that it helps that neverending battle against the fog.

To help with the sense of achievement (even if they won't sell), I've put together three collections and a short story, as well as published the omnibus edition for Of Sound Mind and Maisie as they are linked: it's called, The Keys To Mageia. I was often asked if there would be more from Jorja in Of Sound Mind, and a long time later, Maisie came to me with the answer.

The Keys To Mageia: Two Tales, One Story Omnibus Edition

myBook.to/thekeystomageia

Mageia is a magical realm, discovered in madness, perhaps, but is it real?

Jorja knows only too well that what she sees could just be an imaginary world of an insane mind, where she lingers to escape the cruelties that surround her. Except for her frail mother, she has nobody to love her. But she did have these strange powers. Are they valid or part of her folly in thinking she is different? She has been locked up, after all.

Maisie is blind; had been since she’d appeared. Though an orphan, found on a doorstep of a Home, there is something special about her that, at the age of seven, begins to change her perception of what could be the enigma of truth.

What is the connection between Jorja and Maisie?

The Keys To Mageia reveals their secrets and will possibly make you believe it’s all real.

Two tales of adventure, mystery and surprises, one story of fantasy, where your wishes may or may not come true.

Thank you.
