This story was inspired by the novel that I am writing and is longer than my other flash fiction. Here is the short description:
This story spans time, connecting with key events that led to that fateful day when Ariana met her destiny and had her world tipped upside down, again. Stolen, when she was only six years old, Ariana had been forced to work as a slave on a smuggling ship. She endured the heartache for many years until one event forced her to make a decision that would change her life forever …

This was not an easy story to write. It skirted around the edges of something very painful and focussed more on the uplifting. Confronting and writing about that time is soon to come, in a unit I am about to embark on at uni which I want to do. It is something I must do for myself but for now I find it easier to focus on the happier outcomes.  Short description:

Inspired by true events, this story highlights the mysterious motives of life.  Why is life so brutal and yet so kind?  Is everything determined by ‘fate’.  This story tells of a tragedy that left a woman devastated and disillusioned with life.  And yet, it injects hope, when, through a strange set of circumstances, this event leads her back to someone she has been searching for, her one true love.

I hope you enjoy reading this. It is available for download, free of charge, at http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/286211

I have just published another short story: ‘The Universal Seam’. I started writing a novel in 1990 then it went on a shelf, never to be completed. Recently I used this novel as an inspiration for a short story and here it is …
