“The Meadow” — a great love story of more than 550 pages
This is all about “The Meadow”.
I will be describing how it came to be written.
The title to this page (above) is just a tease to lead you into part of this amazing storyline.
The novel is as unique, as the characters are special.
The picture above isn’t meant to give the impression that it is the book cover. You will find that further down this page.
However, it IS meant to convey the feeling and energy that was behind the two authors as they wrote this tale of love and devastation that covered many thousands of years.

The Meadow seeks recognition
THE INTERNET IS THE ONLY WAY FORWARD
Publication of a great story is only the beginning.. “The Meadow” has taken two and a half years to write and the authors do not intend for it to take that long to gain momentum as it reaches public scrutiny.
We rely on the power of the Internet and the tools which are available to us. There are many influential people out there and using the right approach with diplomacy and respect, that’s exactly what we aim to do.

The physical meadow versus the celestial wateringhole called “The Meadow”
Which would you choose?
.
Once you begin to read “The Meadow” your mind will possibly take you to another world and let you experience a meadow from another dimension — a celestial watering hole where souls go to rest between physical lives.
Observe the painting painting below and see what conjures in the minds of the two authors who wrote “The Meadow”.

The Feathers — the magic behind “The Meadow”
A novel waiting for publication

A BRUTAL KILLING
By all means be shocked at what you read, but tryto understand the implication behind the concept
Investigations are underway and it is believed that a large balding man with a heavy Russian accent was in the building around the same time that she was murdered. Her name is Justine Oliver and she hails from Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
It is not known whether she knew the man, but according to a neighbour, who lived just below Ms Oliver’s penthouse suite, it is claimed that he had had an ‘appointment’ to see her. DCI James Woods, who is in charge of the investigation, has warned all women who live in the area to be extremely careful.
“This man is very dangerous and must not be approached,” he told The Evening Standard. According to the investigating officer, Ms Oliver hardly knew what had hit her, judging by the horrendous marks that were visible all over her body.
However, there’s no need to panic, because this report is the discovery that follows a passage taken from “The Meadow”. Although it doesn’t appear at first glance, because of this horrendous description, it is a novel about undying love. The literal term is ‘undying’ because the two protagonists in the story share a long and passionate history between them.
This book has a very powerful message. To anyone who has a mindset that is left open to all possibilities “The Meadow” conveys hope beyond measure. It graphically illustrates how love and life can live on for ever as two young souls find themselves drawn together, stemming from a life that was shared from beyond antiquity.
As the story draws itself into the twenty first century, it brings with it all the expected trappings that accompany modern life and this does not exclude extreme violence. The storyline is realistic and believable and will leave the reader breathless and desperate to read on.
The idea of past lives, or reincarnation, is not new. However, there are those who would pour scorn on a story that they cannot prove has any relevance to life as we know it. The love that binds the story together is potent in its complexity as our two heroes find themselves dogged by a maniac who has stalked them throughout eternity.
Ironically this nemesis seems to have won the day far too often in the distant and recent past. Now that they have all found themselves again living a life in the twenty first century, unknowingly carrying their same agendas, can our two lovers thwart the threat that has cursed them throughout history?
“The Meadow” is a must-read, can’t-put-down, novel and is just waiting for that big break when all hell is going to let loose. Who will be the first to claim that this book and everything that it represents, was meant to be written and deserves its rightful place on the bookshelves of all the large stores around the world?
So who was the killer and what happened to him? All we can reveal so far is that his name is Dmitri and he lived to tell the tale. But that is not the end of the story. Nor is it the beginning.

Meet Chong-ba
This man is very spiritual and has wisdom beyond imagination
He lives in exile, leaving behind a very high profile which the Establishment want to see put among the X-files.
He doesn’t serve the purpose that the West is aiming for and as a consequence he is hounded by the likes of the CIA and MI6.
Chong-ba thought that his life could be made simple again.
However, that was before a man called Tom Norman, after a gruelling climb to his remote cabin, came to see him unannounced.
But the monk knew that Tom was coming.
The eagle told him so.

Watch out for my personal avatar
The Phoenix rising from the ashes combined with an outline of a female’s head
In 1986 I was under a great deal of stress..
My mother was dying of cancer and I was undergoing horrendous business relationships with my equal partner.
My mother died, coinciding with my decision to go it alone and break the partnership and form a new business.
I commemorated this by designing this emblem/logo in memory of my late mother and in recognition of a new start in business.
It has remained with me ever since and has accompanied many articles that I have written, as well as being the company logo that accompanied all business administration.

A little girl picking up a baby sparrow
“Sparrow in my hand” is the personal Avatar of my writing partner, Elfreda. Drawn by her son, it commemorates a turning point in her life when that same son, at the age of seven, overcame life threatening injuries sustained in an accident.
This is his vision of his mother as a little girl, wondering how to save a baby sparrow that fell from its nest - the same way she wondered how to help him survive all those years ago.
“Sparrow in my hand” is the book of his healing they intend to write in the near future.
