Two: The Island

The proud dark ship slipped into the harbour like a cold hand stealing into a glove - waiting for the soft surroundings to warm the tense flesh.

You really are a master and also a mistress of atmosphere. Only a slight change in the language demand and this would be a great story for children. I saw someone here on your LJ that you do story-telling for children - is that right?

[wytchcroft]

hey! - thank you indeed!:))

yes, i do story-telling, in a small way, occasionally. There are a couple of stories for children in my lj somewhere.

[stoshagownozad]

yry!

[wytchcroft]
