Tales of Tails
Welcome to a small corner of my writing world. Here, I share thoughts, behind-the-scenes moments and the occasional spark that leads to a new story. Nothing elaborate or overwhelming – just simple notes on writing, life with Frankie and Islay and the ideas that wander in when I least expect them.
I’d love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to leave a comment or get in touch via my contact page.
Adventures in Inspiration
Where do stories come from? For Wolsey’s Adventures, inspiration has always been rooted in real moments, half-remembered incidents, and experiences that linger in the mind. From lost dogs in the Scottish Highlands to unexplained figures in the dead of night, this is a look at the real-life sparks behind the stories.
Where Wolsey’s Adventures Began
When a neighbour appeared at my door holding Wolsey on a borrowed lead, I realised he’d quietly slipped out of the garden and taken himself on “quite the adventure”. That small moment – innocent, unexpected and entirely Wolsey – became the spark that led me to imagine what a dog might see, fear or dream when we aren’t looking.
