Steve's New Books for 2019

I haven't updated this for a while so I'd better let you know what is happening:

Firstly, Not Just For Twisted Women is going strong and thanks to all of you who have bought/downloaded it and for your comments and testimonials on how much you have enjoyed it.

I an currently working on three books at the moment:

Steve's Quick Guide to Creepy-Crawlies - part book, part app so that you can identify what is crawling around your house and garden and know if it is friend or foe without having to plough through reams of biological data. ie it's red and black, it looks like this; good guy or bad guy?, sorted.

It is also a most useful publication for those of you who see something on your walks and want to know basically; 'what the heck is it?'. Steve's guide will tell you simply, with pictures, to which of the twenty five or more creepy-crawly groups your guy belongs. World wide. If you want to investigate further then links are provided. Enjoy, learn and record. How to do this is also given in a step-by-step guide. Your children's children will need this data in the future. Our job is to record it now; a global snapshot of Earth in the early 21st century.

An Innocent At Home best way to describe this is as a twentieth century boy catapaulted into 21st century Europe. If you are left bewildered by apps, contactess trading, cars and computers that want to do their own thing then this is for you.

The Magic of Nature of Magic

 The first in a trilogy of natural history/occult thrillers. Isaac Newton spent 20% of his time on the laws of physics and 80% of his time probing the occult. Einstein similar. So did Gerald Durrell. Me too. This trilogy has been meticulously researched. There is life after death, the clues are there for you to follow.

An Interview with Lyn T Osbaldeston

  Lyn is the author of ' My Adopted Life - The Adoptive Mother's Story ' and ' My Adopted Life - The Adopted Child's Story ' written under the pseudonym A H M Beattie. Interview with Lyn T Osbaldeston Focus on Friday 1. Can you tell us about yourself? As much or little as you want. We read ‘My Family and Other Animals’ by Gerald Durrell for O level, and I thought that living on a Mediterranean island, studying animals, and writing about them, sounded like the ideal way to spend one’s life. It took me another thirty years to realise that dream, but for the last fifteen years I’ve been living in Crete and doing just that. I am now enjoying the best of both worlds by dividing my time between Crete and Cumbria. 2. Nature features greatly in your work. What's the most peculiar nature related thing you have written about? There’s such a lot of weird and wonderful stuff going on all around us that it’s difficult to know what to pick. I try to include at least one ‘...

Not Just For...Twisted Women

And here's a short story with a nature theme if you have just come over from  The Crete Nature Blog Mary and the Spider Man The faintest flicker of movement caught Mary's eye as she turned the page. She lowered her library book and scanned the corner of the room where the television sat blankly on its unit. There it was, advancing slowly towards her across the carpet: a brown mass of legs creeping inexorably towards her. Instinctively she drew her legs up onto the settee. It was at times like this that she wished that Robert was still alive. She wished that he was still alive all the time of course but spiders he'd been particularly good at. She'd only have to scream the word and off would come his left slipper and with unerring accuracy it would sail across the room and the offending creature would be left stone dead. Robert had been a true marksman with a size nine slipper, it was a shame that it hadn't been an Olympic event. The spider was now ...
