    Topsy Turvy

    8 PERCHANCE TO DREAM Ruddy Hedgely had never dreamt before. It was an odd sensation, and he had no words to describe it. He found himself in a small flowery meadow surrounded by trees. Somehow, he knew it wasn’t a place, it was the place, a small cozy world that felt like a meadow someone...

    7 THE PASSAGE There is such a thing as the tired, those folk who having spent a day in worthy toil and care bed down to hand the tiller to the Great Captain of all Sailors. Then there is the restless tired, folk who have something on their mind or who suffer some pain or need that deprives...

    Topsy Turvy

    6 A RUDE AWAKENING Ruddy sprang out of bed in the middle of the night. That was something he had never done before. “Dear, what’s wrong??” “I’ve been shot!” He searched himself for the bullet hole and was temporarily relieved not to find one. There was no more pain, and no blood on the...

    5 A GAME OF COPS AND ROBBERS The next morning…human morning…Bill walked down the sidewalk on Keller Street. It was a walk he had made many times from his office. His office was no longer his and his reason for making the walk was no longer the same. In his jacket pocket was a Webley...

    4 DEALING WITH FATE Ruddy Hedgely sat up in bed. He looked around at the reassuring walls of his bedroom and over at his lovely vixen. Getting there was rough because Bill required a heavy sleeping draft just to leave England…and Tropic Kick…behind. “Rough day at the office, dear?” “The...

    3 TROPIC KICK The mood in the boardroom was tense as Colin Musselman, a diminutive ferret of a man with a beak of a nose, came in expecting Gone With the Wind on a newsreel budget. His reticence was not entirely his fault. The economy was still sluggishly trying to bounce back from the dark...

    2 THE PROBLEM It was October in 1938. Hitler had just annexed the Sudetenland and the Jan Masaryk the Czechoslovakian ambassador was loudly rebutting Chamberlain’s assurances that there would be peace in our time. Jan was right…it was only a matter of time until the world would be dragged...

    TOPSY TURVY 1 TWO SIDES TO ONE COIN Ruddy Hedgely led a double life. Not that kind of double life, for he was born as innocent into both of his lives as you were into your one. Ruddy Hedgely was a fox, and he was a blacksmith. That wasn’t his double life, for in Narnia many foxes were...

    "Topsy Turvy" will be audio-book read but won't be a full audio drama simply because it wouldn't benefit from a full course of sound effects. So, after Harrod's Bend comes Swept Away, and the relatively short "Topsy Turvy" which I expect you'll find rather different from many of my other stories.

    C.S. Lewis the movie!

    Wonderings, I agree, but not to the exclusion of saying that the LITTLE things are really the BIG things, for that is where we spend the vast majority of our lives. If I could relive one day of my past, it wouldn't be a major happening, it would be a day at home with my Mom and Dad. I would rake...

    The Eagle and Child pub is closed.

    One can but hope. However...and this is an important however...the building itself has no feelings. The reverence one feels when sitting in the chairs is a personal one between you and what happened there, and that won't diminish unless you allow it to. There is a great deal of money to be made...

    Idea: What if Netflix created a Radio Drama of the books?

    Most audiobooks are just somebody reading the book out loud. Oh they might change their voice once in a while or use a sound effect or two, but yeah...it's the digital equivalent of saying, "Dad, I want a bedtime story." I create audio dramas, and let me tell you, there have been moments when I...

    Why The Magician’s Nephew is a bold place to begin the new Narnia film cycle

    Agreed. If you remember the days of vinyl records as well as I do, there were all sorts of albums of the "Hundred Greatest Moments of Classical Music." It ends up that these albums had almost the same 100 selections because record producers copied other such albums with their own artists and...

    That's because they didn't have cable TV or the internet...among their other blessings.

    How do you decorate for a Narnia themed party?

    Once I invited a lot of my friends to a Narnia themed banquet. Problem is, I left to get more punch and when I came back the guests were all turned to stone with looks of horror on their face. I don't know witch person did that, but it cost me a bundle to have 1-800-GOT-JUNK to carry all those...
