Over the coming weeks I will be sharing the stories from Tales from the Garden which I hope you will enjoy in audio
Tales from the Garden is a collection of short stories I wrote in tribute to our home in the mountains to the north of Madrid where we lived from 1999 to 2016. We inherited a number of statues from the previous owners that were too big to take with them, and I also found some discarded around the garden. Perfect characters for stories, some of whom moved on with us to Ireland and appeared in Tales from the Irish Garden.
About Tales from the Garden
Tales from the Garden reveals the secrets that are hidden beneath hedges and trees. You will discover what really happens at night as you sleep unaware in your bed. Stone statues and those hidden worlds within the earth are about to share their stories. The guardians who have kept the sanctuary safe for over fifty years will allow you to peek behind the scenes of this magical place. They will take you on a journey through time and expand your horizons as they transport you to the land of fairies, butterflies and lost souls who have found a home here.
This week a beloved statue of a fairy princess joins the other guardians of the magic garden.
I hope you have enjoyed the story and will join me again for another story from the magic garden.

Thanks very much Noelle.. the fox was there for a number of years and brought her new cubs back when they were young. We would switch the lights off except for the porch one and that gave us a ringside seat to the fun…hugsx

A lovely story, Sally. I listened to it while doing another run-through of my next book. I paused when the old friend passed since I needed to pay attention to what would happen to the princess. Lucky for her, she now has a forever home. Thanks.

Thank you John.. and I still pat her head when I am in the garden… I am afraid she was wrapped in popping stuff again for the journey from Spain.. xxx

Beautiful garden and statues. Good luck with your short stories. Such as fab idea to write about them. We had to leave a 3-ton statue of Buddha behind when we last moved. Broke my heart but it was too heavy. Sharing.
