Spiritual Short Stories
This is a collection of Spiritual Short Stories I have written over the last few years.
They range between 3,000 and 20,000 words.
Just for showing an interest, I invite you to download one of my favorites for free.
Hopefully you will be enchanted, and return to support my writing efforts.
Please look for the 'Free Download' button below.
These stories are all magical in nature, and have been described as fairy tales for grown-ups. Although there are characters such as Princesses, Fairy's and Ogre's, or are set in the more romantic times of periods past, the messages conveyed are universal and practical for living a better life today.
I really hope you enjoy my work - and your feedback is always welcome.

Recommendations...
"I love your writing, have totally enjoyed reading your spiritual short stories. Once I started it was difficult to put them down, so I managed one story a day and loved them all. You are a very gifted and talented author and I'm wondering when you will have a full length novel published? Do let me know if there are more stories to read... It's not often one gets to read such uplifting and inspiring work. Thank you."
Love and Blessings,

Sean lay freshly born on the cold earth on a night with a deathly chill. He looked up to the stars and knew he had to shine as brightly as they were if he was to make it through his first night.
And that is how he lived each following day.
Sean questions his destiny and dares to dream. He wants to learn of new things and make discoveries in the world and in his mind.
But the flock is against him.
They are only concerned with normal.

Vivaldi de Bellamee - by Nigel Coates |
|
|
A strange boy is found washed ashore at Bellamee. The only clue to his arrival is an amulet that hangs from his neck.
The townsfolk all have questions - but the boy is unable to speak. They view him simply, as a mystery of the sea…
As he grows to a fine young man, he sits on the rocks at the end of the harbor to play his drum. As his beats roll onto the breeze, he looks to the moon and wishes for love.
A sea-horn joins his tune.
