Given that my first notions of writing came about with the need to express the ‘something to say’, the Troublesome Tom series grew out of realism.  Not a ‘fairy’ set of stories this series.  Not a ‘magic and wizardry’ set, not a make believe cross bred animal come monster set. No nothing like that at all.  They are born from reality and carry intrinsic messages within the storyline.  Rather like a set of modern day Aesop Fables.  Yes, stories with a hidden psyche and message.

The next book in the series that’s in process is TT AND THE SNOWMOON by Barbara Herszenhorn.  This little gem, (largely an illustrative book which tells this beautiful story) is about the awe and wonder of a natural phenomenon in space and the relationship between Grandad Tom and young Tom.  Grandad is teaching T.T. about the magic of the world and the natural happenings therein.

Magic on the doorstep so to speak.
