Firstworldwar Stories

In the chaos of 1914, as the world descends into the bloodiest war in history, two strangers meet where they least expect it - between the silence of the guns. James Whitmore, a young British soldier, has seen too much death for his years. Elise Dubois, a French nurse, has seen too much pain for her heart to bear. When their paths cross on a battlefield drenched in mud and memories, neither expects to find comfort in the other. But in a world where tomorrow is never promised, love can be the most dangerous battlefield of all. From candlelit whispers to the roar of artillery, this is a tale of stolen moments, desperate letters, and a romance that dares to survive the Great War. When the bullets pause, will their love be enough?

During the holiday season of 1914, after the First World War had ground down into a stalemate, something remarkable happened: men from both sides crossed into No Man's Land and celebrated Christmas together. In the following interview, you'll experience this legendary moment in history through the eyes of First World War veteran Simon Bennington, who served with the British Expeditionary Force near Ypres. This is one of my oldest stories, written all the way back in 2013 as an assignment for my creative writing class, and I'm pleased to share it with you as a sort of Christmas present.

Though ultimately torn between two worlds will Emily Weston be able to return to her own time and leave Luke Edensor behind forever?

This is just a collection of poetry I wrote. Feel free to comment

The Emperor of Russia's four daughters - Olga, Tatiana, Marie, and Anastasia - are best friends as well as sisters. Being in an unusual position as daughters of the one of the world's most powerful men, sometimes it feels that they are each other's only true companions. They must savour all the time they have left, though, as they are rapidly changing from beguiling little girls hidden away in the palace nursery to charming young women whose names dominate gossip magazines with talk of which foreign princes they will one day marry. It is 1913, and the imperial family is celebrating three hundred years of their family's rule. The tercentenary celebrations mark the beginning of the last full year the girls have to just be sisters; to venerate their youth. But beyond the gates of the Alexander Palace, a different fate is in store for the sisters and their family. Europe is a freight train of politics and tensions charging headfirst into the modern era, and the House of Romanov, steeped in tradition and antiquity, must change with it, or else be crushed under the wheel of time. *** NOTE: This story is not on hiatus! Chapters will be written and published as and when they are ready, but there will not be a consistent update schedule between February and July 2020, while the author sorts out some "real world" shenanigans. This note will be replaced once a schedule has been organised.
