Mum, author and dentist is how I describe myself. I love creating pictures from words. Sometimes a painter, other times a weaver- words are my tool; trying to create something beautiful. When I was nine, my dad introduced me to audio books. I was hooked. With his guidance, I fell into a world where words became life simply by weaving them together. So here I am, living out my passion- reading and writing! Enjoy the ride with me 😁😁

Dear Vivian,
Quite a scene. When Mr. Crusoe comes to they’ll have a lot to talk about. Nicely done.
Shalom,

Sounds like Mr. Crusoe had a long, long wait for that boat! Unless Captain Jack is the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow, which would be close enough to the right time period.I like the idea that he had been waiting 300 years better, though….
