Omg, beautiful, Ina! So very heartbreaking and sad, but wonderfully written! You are so talented! Loved seeing this side of you.

Thank you so much, Dave! I’m delighted you have read it, and liked it. There are a few more coming in a similar style. Hope you enjoy those, too. My writing is multi-faceted, but not everyone gets to see all of its variations.

I’m honored to be among the first to see your beautiful variations, but don’t hide this wonderfully amazing talent from the world! 🙂 We must see more to all that is Ina. 😉

All good things come to he who waits… 😉 These stories will be part of a short story collection. I also have some serious-themed novels that I am working on at the moment, and would like to begin publishing next year. They’re probably best described as novels with erotic content but not erotica, per se. But they are about sex and emotional consequences – and a number of other dark themes. I’ve been working on one for ten years; I would hope it will be ready soon!

Yes, ten years. It’s become my “baby” and I’m finding it hard to let go of this one. If you would like it, then certainly I will post an excerpt or two (once I’m happy with the editing. I promise it won’t take ten more years!)

A very, cold story; the setting, the sea, the emotions all churning like a storm just past. The narrative reminds me of a still life oil capturing a moment on the shingle that will never be seen again.

Interesting: that’s very much how it felt to me in writing. Maybe it was the influence of the picture that inspired it, or maybe it was one of those moments of discomfort that insisted on being captured in words. If my more literary stories do anything, it is often to make the reader (and always the writer) feel uncomfortable.
