(Ages 9 -16 First in a series of short stories)
Having only written two books previous to this one, I am still trying to find the genre most suitable for me. I have written an Adventure/Romance and a thriller with a romantic element. But if I was going to decide it on the one I enjoyed writing the most, this children’s book would win hands down.
Nathan had just moved from Norwich, the only place he had ever known as his home. It was a place where he had had to leave all his friends and all his best places in the world. And to make it even worse, he had moved to a small seaside village which had nothing - or at least that’s what he thought. It did not take long before he was noticed by three boys at school who were looking for a cool kid to join their gang. To impress Nathan and to make their gang seem worth joining, they had to be seen as being cool themselves. Nathan had told them of the places in Norwich which were great places for kids to go have fun. Not wanting to seem boring, Shorty, one of the three boys, decide's to suggest going to Ormesby Woods, which is well known in the area for one thing only, being haunted. But they soon discover that there was more to Ormesby Woods than, even they knew.
