And now for something completely different. I have begun writing short stories as I practice writing prose as a change from writing comics.

And now for something completely different. I have begun writing short stories as I practice writing prose as a change from writing comics. I originally wrote this as a gift for my brother as part of a "Ghost Story for Christmas" exchange. I hope you enjoy it. I've not posted my writing on patreon before so I have no idea how much interest there will be from you.

In the London of the 1890s, it follows Wendy Moore, a nanny, taking employment with a young family but she starts suspecting something very dark is hiding beneath their welcoming presence.

This story was a tonal exercise for my potential Phantasmagorium project.

I have attached the story as a PDF below. It is roughly 10 pages.

Hamish, this is terrific stuff! You absolutely nailed the atmosphere

I am usually not much of a reader with ADHD and being mostly visual type, but I really enjoyed it. I could really imagine these in a separate book with a few illustrations or even as extras in your comics (if the setting matches). The wording created a totally different tone from your usual works and it went perfectly well with the story, plus spooky stories are always a plus! ❤️

I don't see a link to the PDF for some reason.
