There is a field next to my house, with sheep everywhere and the odd mouse. A year ago there were two Herdwick Sheep in that field, only two. My girlfriend and I named Stewy & Simon. I later found out they were females. One day on a walk through there with my very mad Cocker Spaniel, I spotted a Magpie following Stewy & Simon about! Hopping onto Stewy's back and pulling loose wool away... he stayed for a few weeks, so I decided it was only right to give him a name, like I did for the sheep. So I named him Mordred. A short story about kindness, and giving, not always in the hopes of receiving. Instead of passing your jacket over to your date even though they never said they were cold...and then unnecessarily shivering for the next hour...pass it onto a sheep.

Tuesday, 6 October 2015 For Amali, Christmas 2015 This story began in the September school holidays 2015, when Amali was staying with me and had trouble getting to sleep at night. After trying all of the old remedies I could think of, counting sheep, relaxation, deep breathing, I came up with an idea I thought may help her. I suggested that we both think of a story that night while we were trying to go to sleep. I sometimes have problems getting to sleep as well, and I've used this in one form or another at times with some success. So, when she asked me "what sort of story?" I searched around in my head for a story theme that would interest Amali. What I then came up with was "how about .....The girl who would... (thinking hard).....wear... (digging around in my head for a subject) and then the word "Green" came. We had our title. Next day, I asked Amali if this had worked, had she thought of a story. She said it had a bit, and she told me hers. Can you remember your story Amali? That night she wanted mine. Thinking this would be a one off, one night venture, I started with the very bare bones of the story that follows. Little did I realise at the time, that Amali would want another chapter every night! From then on, until she went home after the holidays, I struggled through telling the story, coming up with some events as I went, and giving myself a few sleepless nights trying to come up with something for the next night. The story was left, when Amali returned home and to school, somewhere near where Essie meets her grandmother. Amali has asked me a couple of times to continue, but at the time, I got stuck with where to go next. So here I the finished story hope you enjoy!
