Tales From A Harrogate Caravan
Tales From A Harrogate Caravan is an entertaining collection of stories stretching from the cavalier sixties to the modern day. Through a panorama of characters and action, the book shows how times and society change, and how the characters in the tales try to adapt to those changes—and not altogether successfully.
We Are All Vampires
We are all vampires, but some of us are more vampire than others.
We're not talking about the blood-curdling, drinking vampires of the past. No, the modern vampire is more sophisticated and is everywhere in society, seeking only the energy of another person. In modern psychology, we call this contemptuous creature the narcissist.
Whether they are a husband, a wife, a partner, or a boss in the workplace, this contemporary predator survives by daily draining their victims of life. We Are All Vampires exposes the hidden mechanics of this psychological drain, helping you identify the toxic narcissists in your life—and confront the hidden traits within yourself.
Scardale
Scardale is set in a mining village in the county of Yorkshire. Elsie Davey is the last inhabitant of Scardale. She befriends a young reporter, Lucy, and begins to tell her the tale of a few of the village’s characters from time past. There is the story of the shameless Ronnie Hardaker and his suffering wife, Mary. There is the trip to Scarborough and the even more shameless story of Ethel, Edna, and the colourful character of Daisy Doodeck. Scardale is an entertaining short story from start to finish.
