Occasionally I'll get an idea that will sit with me for a while as I try to work out the best format for it. I've long since come to terms with the way that my brain works and have learned that often the best thing for me is to 'sit with a story' before I try to tell it. Some of the short stories presented here are based on moments in my life, while others are works that have been published or are connected to the Ivyford Chronicles series.
