How To Listen

Listening is an art. If we listen carefully to what is being said we have a better understanding of the conversation. Sometimes we are in too much of a hurry to get our point across that we don’t take in what’s being said.

When to listen.

I was blown away by a comment I received on my Instagram page about a podcast of a short story of mine. Two years ago, one of my short story Chimes at Midnight was accepted by Tony Walker for his Classic Ghost Story podcast.

Chimes at Midnight has been listened to over 18k times on Tony’s YouTube account. It’s such a delights to know others enjoy hearing him read my story as much as I do. Here’s the comment I received. Elizabeth first commented on the Meme above, and then tied it in with listening to my short story.

Gothic Tale brings happiness

Just knowing others are still discovering my short story on Tony’s podcast channel is wonderful, especially as it makes them want to hunt out more of my other works.

Chimes at Midnight is in my mind an amazing story in itself. The tale most or less wrote itself from the opening line. By the time I scribbled down the last line it read too much like a poem. I knew I had to change it. There are elements of the original draft of the story still at play within the final draft.

I do hope you will check the podcast out. click on this Link . It will give you a taste of my writing.
