Anne Louise Avery tells beautiful microstories set in her own world of wild open spaces, small communities, talking animals and mutual respect between all living things.
A young man, badly gassed at Ypres, went to convalesce in a village on the Downs. The schoolmistress made him gingerbread & brought him books, the tame ravens from the copse dropped silver coins by his chair, & one by one, his ghosts carefully took up their packs & whispered farewell.

I'll be expanding some of these microstories over on my Patreon, if they're popular, and spark some inspiration for me. Here's the first one I've done! Any contribution gets you access, as low as a dollar.

the only further lord of the rings adaptation that should actually be made is a deeply artsy tv series that just captures random microstories of the history of the dwarves. with no dialogue, just different key versions of the Song of Dúrin playing at random times
