Pen y ffrwd – Some Thoughts

After I wrote what I thought was just going to be a very short story in the romantasy genre, Pen y ffrwd won't let me alone. First it mushroomed into two more instalments, and now, being of a scientific nature, I keep thinking about the relationship between the two worlds. I like a bit of magic and mystery, but I do like knowing how things work too.

A Pen y ffrwd Love Story Part Three

This is the third and (possibly) final instalment in the story. I wanted to see if I could write something in the 'romantasy' genre which I understand is all the rage now. But having created these characters I feel somewhat loathe to let them go. Cerian's about to embark on a whole new life and who know where it will take her ? Or maybe it's best if we just let her go and use our own imaginations...

Well .. it's interesting that you should say that.

Well .. it's interesting that you should say that.  The answer is that I didn't think about it at all while I was actually writing the story. 

But then when I read it back over, I though 'ooh that sounds a bit like I'm banging a drum for...

Yes there is a part three.

Yes there is a part three.  Really pleased you liked the other two.

I wrote the original story to be stand alone, but after I finished it I felt there was more clamouring to get out.  And the course of true love never did run smooth – it’s...

Hi Jane

Hi Jane

Any chance of starting a 'The Vale' Collection ?  I read this story in isolation and I've only just realized it succeeds / precedes others in the series.  (I know the title should have been a clue !)

I found it hard to get a handle on Lori's attitude to Jamie too.

At one point he says :

"She’s not all that pleased to see me anymore"

And then further on :

"She’s staring at me now with adoring eyes"

Posted on Fri, 04 Jul 2025

Love this Jane, makes me wonder what else Jamie is hiding.  Can't wait for the next instalment.

With my proof reading hat on, could I ask about this line please :

"I stared at Rachel quizzically. ‘And what if I did?’"

Who is...

Thank you again Jenny.  My own very strongly held belief is that there is no world after this one, but that doesn't stop me speculating about what there might be. If there is another world, not necessarily after this but maybe in parallel with it...

Yes I did read it several times, wondering about the use of 'feint'.  I was thinking along the lines of a feint being a subterfuge, like the grass was just pretending to crackle ..

Posted on Tue, 01 Jul 2025

Loved it !  Mystery, suspense, sexual attraction (in a discreet way), descriptions of nature, it's got everything including that ending which is unexpected and should be sad but isn't somehow.  Like she's a woman who has obviously previously ...

Posted on Tue, 01 Jul 2025

She was so scared. We all cling to the familiar and are frightened of the unknown, and it was a huge unknown she was facing. People fight to stay alive in even the most awful circumstances.  I think of those people who make epic treks to refugee...

Roman Catholicism is thankfully losing popularity

Posted on Thu, 21 Dec 2023

'Roman Catholicism is thankfully losing popularity at a rapid rate' - it certainly is amongst the indigenous population, espcially in the wake of the appalling sexual abuse scandals, but from what I understand its membership has been greatly...
