Out beyond the line of hills, clothed in forests of gold at this time of year, lies the market town of Stileham. It sits by the crossroads of the old drove road that runs from the hill country to the sea and the great north road, a trade route used for generations of traders heading from London to the provinces.
This countryside is bountiful. Rolling pastures with soaring Elms in their hedges, the vase shape upswept and holding up the sky. Nearer the hills the hedges run out of steam and the countryside opens up to downland, a myriad of flowers in spring, cropped closely by the sheep who seek shelter this time of year behind the few scrubby thorns.
Stileham is too frightened of strangers to sit astride the crossroads and allow them to enter or pass through its narrow cobbled streets. From the road the imposing bulk of its stone fortifications and massive studded entrance gates deter the timid traveller who will pass by to spent the night in a remote wayside hostelry. However on market day, when the sheep have been herded down the droves and penned for the night in a maze of hurdles outside the walls, kept awake no doubt by the carousing shepherds, the town flings open its gates and the central square becomes a maelstrom of dogs barking, sheep bleating, tellers hollering, farmers touching their caps and sidling off to the taverns whose signs creak a welcome. It is the year of our Lord 1258 and Stileham is probably as prosperous as it will ever be and more so than it

Childhood Creative Writing

Creative writing- Childhood memory The usual routine. I bowl in to see the scornful look of the Old Witch. She glares at me from behind her spectacles. Never greeted with a warm welcome, reproached for being a female and I certainly don’t fit her stereotype of what a woman should be. Aggressive with a passion for anything that does not conform to the typical 1950’s housewife, which is against most women’s views. But no one would suspect an old lady to be so malicious inside with such a sweet loving…

Michael Marchelletta Mrs. Gosling 20th Century Literature 25 November 2013 I awoke on a brisk Saturday morning in November. I got out of bed and made my way to the kitchen, where hot cider and a chocolate chip scone were waiting. I read the paper while indulging on my early morning treats and then proceeded to do my homework once I was finished.

Creative Writing: The Giver

Layer by layer, she transformed herself. She watched her skin turn from a sallow, bony, splotchy mess into a luminescent glow. She lined her eyes with a dark charcoal pencil. Her lips became a deep crimson. She slid the dress over her bony hips, pulled the straps over her shoulders, and tugged up the zipper. She surveyed herself in the mirror. That dark part of herself struggled to find something to hate about it. There could’ve been a million things. She was too skinny, she was too pale. Her breasts…

They said that my house needs to be painted and I need to stay here for a while so I don’t get in the way of the tradesmen.
