Letters About K
Mum, I know you were worried about me taking this trip so soon after the divorce was finalised and I know how much you and dad love and care for me. That's why I wanted to write to you, so you don't need to worry. Over the last few years, I've felt like a burden on you both. You've had to shoulder a lot and I know you do it because you love me, but I just needed to spend some time in my own skin. Things ending with Craig really shook me. He was the man I thought I was going to spend my forever with. Though he claimed it was as much my fault as his, you and dad always had my back. You were fair to him, but you know how much work I put in making things work with that asshole. Anyway, enough about that. I will include some pictures with my next letter. This place is amazing. So serene, and tranquil and you should definitely get dad to take you here for your 50th anniversary. Lots of lovely palm trees. It's exactly what you would imagine an island retreat would look like. Like it was taken from a postcard or some mural. As I know you too well, I know you're wondering if there are any men here. I can tell you that there is absolutely no one I'm interested in. I've barely spoken to anyone human, apart from the concierge team at the resort. Give Mr Tickles a kiss and a belly rub from me. love you both so much Diane XOX

Blackbird Fly. Top Story - January 2024.
The Basket It's a Monday evening on May 24, 1965. It was slightly chilly with a light breeze blowing. A young lady wearing a long overcoat with her face covered by a scarf walked up to the Fire Department in Anaheim, CA on Ball Road carrying a small basket with a blanket covering the top. It was around 7:00 pm and the activity in the area was light. She walked up the sidewalk to the entrance of the fire station and she left a small basket near the door then quickly walked away around the corner to her car and drove away.

For All Whom We Love and Value - Chapter One
Read the Prologue here The White was an excellent ship, in Phoebe's admittedly very limited experience. She was Captained by Admiral Croft, a good-humored man promoted after the Trafalgar action some years ago and stationed in India ever since. Phoebe had encountered the Admiral and his wife at a party some years ago, where Mrs Croft had been praised openly as the kind of Naval wife one wanted aboard a ship, and in whispered rumours as half the reason the White had so few dicipline problems among the newer sailors, compared to other ships of its kind. Mrs Croft was as kind and good natured as her husband, but Phoebe had seen her silence a young Midshipman, who had been so ill-mannered as to whistle at another young lady on the docks, with no more than a quelling glare.
