Well what an odd couple of days. Have got totally absorbed in Hermann Hesse, currently The Glass Bead Game. What a writer, if only one can emulate this man. Oh to be able to write like him. I have been giving my writing a lot of thought, and have a new project in mind, that will not go away. Want to know more? It is based on a real situation I and my family were in some years ago. It will definitely not be a children's story as the content is quite dark. A little Frank Peretti like, the forces of good and evil in today's world.
Monday I must record Fleur in it's entirety and get it into MP3, and during the course of the weekend write some more prequels, along with may be an outline of new book.
About Me
- Jean Isherwood-Farley
- Wool. Nr Wareham, Dorset, United Kingdom
- I am 58 years young. I have a daughter of 28 and a beautiful grandson Tommy, just 3 years old. I am a Jill of all trades and mistress of none: much of my life has been involved with children one way or another, from nursery class, being a nanny, and running fun days for kids in deprived areas, to teaching and leading Sunday School – in all I just love kids. It worries me that many parents do not have time in this busy world to sit and read with their children and that in turn prevents good healthy dialogue on issue’s that come about in all walks of life. I have always had a great love of books and reading, right across the spectrum, from Tolkien to Pratchett, with so many in between. I have always wanted to write a book for children, and now am fortunate to be able to do so. Children bring out the very best and sometimes the very worst of us, and in turn we should be attempting to provide the very best for them, allowing them access to a very safe world to allow their minds to roam free, and to challenge their ideas, getting them to look at different ways to approach things.
