By: Grosvenor House Publishing "Visions" by Jackie Follett is published An eclectic and entertaining collection of short stories About the Book: Find out how a red rose reveals the secret in a grandmother's past. Does a reunion bring back happy memories, or disappointment? Read about a day that starts well and ends in disaster, or a date that turns into a nightmare. Why feeling lucky does not always turn out well, and being a new ghost is a confusing situation. If you enjoy writing and receiving letters, the friendships developed can have surprising results. When is a criminal an asset to society? Or when does honesty imply a falsehood? Nature can be a pleasure to the eye, an intricate part or life, or a danger for the enthusiast. Life is not always what it seems, and people not always how they appear. All this – and much more in this varied collection of short stories. About the Author: Jackie lives on the Isle of Wight, the birthplace of her maternal ancestors for over four centuries. Having been a pensioner for nearly 20 years, she is a late-comer to commercial writing. Still, she had always loved putting imagination into words, and won several school prizes from the age of eight. Jackie also had a short article published in The Lady a few years ago, and was runner-up in a competition for a short story which was published in Warwick Castle's collection of ghost stories. Visions is her second book. Her first was self-published for family and friends. Entitled Jottings, it was a collection of fiction, fantasy, nostalgia and anecdotes written during her life as schoolgirl, teenager, wife, mother and pensioner. Excerpt from the book: "A ghost. That's the last thing I wanted to be. Well, it is the last thing, isn't it? But that's not the point. You know what I mean. They say we're restless spirits, don't they? Well, they're certainly right about that. I had it all planned. Do everything I want, and then go quietly, without any fuss, at a time and place of my own choosing. That was it. Simple. I had a busy year ahead of me. Then it all went wrong, just because of a bit of wind." Visions is available in paperback to purchase from Amazon UK at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ This collection of short stories is also available from Amazon USA at: https://www.amazon.com/ Press/Media Contact Details: Grosvenor House Publishing Tel. 020 8339 6060 E-mail: info@grosvenorhousepublishing.co.uk End
