WOULD YOU LIKE A STORY?

Would you like a story?

Would you like a tale?

One filled with terror, murder and mystery.

Or maybe one dodging bomb blasts and bullets, across a country at war.

No? Perhaps a sweet little fairy tale to gently take you away from it all?

Maybe you would love the thrill of a romance that sweeps you into someone’s arms,

Embracing in the moonlight, on a ship’s deck, engines pulsating gently beneath your feet.

Being transported on a flight to a tropical paradise, to an adventure with sun, fun and amazing new food to try.

Or how about a journey across an immense desert, swaying on a camel’s back?

With stars twinkling in the darkness, as companions overhead, shining light

Beamed from millions of miles away, lightening up the canopy in the most spectacular way.

Or would you like to meet an animal never seen before,

Which does not want to hurt or eat you, just love you forever more?

Each one of these is possible lying tucked up in your bed.

With a book in hand, written by a writer with an imagination,

Capable of leaving the gift of wonderful stories

To be relived again and again inside your head.

Perhaps you could pick up a pen and release stories you have kept locked away.

Maybe now might be the time to share them. Go on—give it a go!
