Bella - Wisdom, Born out of Necessity

Beschreibung

In a serene landscape of lush fields and dense woods, a lone wisp of smoke signals turmoil in the once peaceful region. Tom's once thriving farm now lies abandoned, contrasting starkly with the neighbouring farm of Bernard. Here, Bernard, with his granddaughter Bella and her friends, has created a haven of hope and survival. Bernard's farm, bustling with life and a refuge for allies, draws unwanted attention from bandits. Among the group is Alex, a skilled mechanic, longing to reunite with his uncle in Scotland. His presence stirs tension, particularly with Bella's father, Robert, over concerns about Bella's closeness to Alex. As time melds into a continuous loop of day and night, an uneasy tension blankets the area. Mysterious footprints, covert glances from the shadows, and the rumours of bandit threats heighten the sense of impending conflict. Trust becomes a rare commodity, blurring the lines between friends and enemies. In this volatile environment, where every choice matters, and alliances are critical, the land waits with bated breath. As dawn breaks, revealing the first light of a new day, the unfolding story is poised to reveal hidden secrets and test the bonds of those who call this land home.

After the tragic loss of my girlfriend as a teenager, I sought an escape. My pub upbringing introduced me to a traveling gypsy family, and they allowed me to join their journey under one condition: I had to contribute. Soon, they discovered my talent for spontaneous storytelling, known as "pantsing." In villages and towns, I showcased this gift, crafting stories based on audience suggestions after Mahala's performances. My dyslexia prevented me from pursuing writing as a profession, given the cost of ghostwriters and publishing. Now, with five children and a 50th birthday surprise, I've told countless imaginative bedtime stories. Reflecting on my time with the gypsy family, I've realised the profound impact of storytelling on people, contemplating the possibility of chronicling that journey someday. Throughout my 30s and 40s, I occasionally returned to the stage for charity events, driven by my love for storytelling. My daughter encouraged me to write a novel, leading to my first series under the pen name Barrel Coops, named after her. It took just five months to write five books, with four more for editing, mainly due to my struggles with spelling and punctuation. After extensive feedback and courses, they are being rewritten for release in early 2024. Despite dyslexia being a constant challenge, I'm committed to writing. I hope my stories will captivate and inspire you, bringing enjoyment to your life.
