Review
Sink deep in to the pages of ‘A Gentle Nudge’. The writing oozes with positivity and a serene calmness. Trepidation occurs, but there is also a sense of tranquility and sereness in how things end up and in the settings. The writing is beautiful for dipping in and out of and, for some readers, may even aid restoration in faith in humanity. There’s hope and kindness featuring heavily in each story that is sure to soothe your soul.
Find beautiful sights and romance in ‘A Chance Encounter with Love’, as well as some nature, which leads well, on to ‘Ben’s Birds’, where you can get up close to nature. ‘Benny and the New Year’s Fireworks brings fun and also an act of heroism, as does ‘Bridge of Life’, which may have your heart in your mouth for a moment in a will the person jump or not.
There’s music in Cassidy’s song and the fear of performing sets in.
Despondent, Worthless, Hidden is a terrific title as so many people in the modern day world say they feel like this, especially when job hunting. There’s a bit of advice in there, which may be of value.
Grandmother’s last gift brings a certain melancholy, but also that bittersweet feeling, with music all around. In Hartley’s Fantasy, will Hartley find what he’s has really been searching for?
Interview Intervention has something major occur in it that could blow everything apart, yet also shows the warmth of humanity. In ‘The Old Man In The Park’, not all is as it first seems and may leave your heart in sorrow, before hitting onto The ‘Recovery Man’ that will bring joy to your heart and a certain energy.
There are many other short stories worth reading and they all end rather fittingly with a story that all brings it back to ‘What Matters Most’, that serves as a good reminder that somethings are more important than holding onto something for only ourselves.
