  1. If there’s a solstice or an equinox approaching, you know it’s time for another free ebook in my Grammaticus Free Library series!

    The latest one contains a short ghost story by Edith Nesbit, "Uncle Abraham's Romance."

    A lonely old man remembers a series of unusual encounters with a mysterious woman. Was she just a product of his imagination or perhaps a visitor from the beyond?

    If you like ghost stories, you’ll enjoy this one!

  2. Calling all those who signed up to The Storybook Sock Box - The Railway Children - it's time for the big reveal!

    Introducing 'The Railway Children' - a 100g skein of hand dyed 100% British Bluefaced Leicester 4 ply high twist sock yarn along with a contrasting 25g mini skein perfect for heels, toes and cuffs.

    Included in the box is a copy of the book, a postcard, a pin badge and a notebook.
