As you step into this world of stories, you may find yourself drawn to the quiet moments, the glimpses of nature, or the feeling that time is both fleeting and eternal. Perhaps you’ve noticed how every beginning carries a touch of an ending and how what feels ancient somehow feels new again. It’s in these connections—between the past and the present, between endings and beginnings—that you are invited to pause, reflect, and find comfort.

Here in The Glen, there is space for you to discover your own stories, to linger in the art that speaks to your heart, and to see the beauty in life’s quiet fragments. You might feel that a simple moment—whether captured in a tale or a piece of art—can hold entire worlds, much like the moments in your own life.

When you read a story here, it may take you on a journey not just through The Glen, but through time itself. You might recognise the feeling of an old tale that resonates today, or a new story that seems to echo something long forgotten. These stories, shared with love, often reflect the rhythm of life that you’ve felt—the way moments flow into one another, how what is ending is always a step toward something new.

Perhaps, as you explore Mouse Tales or Rabbits Tales, you will find yourself comforted by the familiar creatures who, like you, are navigating the cycles of time. These whimsical tales might bring a smile to your face or offer a sense of peace, much like the stories you’ve heard from loved ones or even from your own memories.

As you gaze at the illustrations, you may sense the blending of the traditional and the modern—the ancient wisdom of nature combined with the possibilities of new technologies. The images, created with the help of AI and digital tools, are a reflection of the timelessness that you might feel in your own life, where the past and future often meet.

You may be fascinated, as many are, by how technology is used to create something that feels organic and warm. These digital pieces, shaped by modern tools like AI, may remind you of how life itself evolves—how we embrace the new while carrying the wisdom of what has come before. Each piece of art, like each story, invites you to see the beauty in the connections between then and now, between what is starting and what is ending.

You are not alone in finding solace in this space. Many, like you, have gathered here to reflect on the themes of life, time, and nature. The community that has formed around these stories and art is one of shared wisdom, where each person brings their own experiences and finds comfort in knowing that we all walk similar paths. As you connect with others who appreciate the magic of small moments, you might discover that your own stories and reflections are mirrored in the tales shared here. Whether you seek inspiration, peace, or simply a moment to pause, this community is here for you.

Chat with me, O best beloved, & let us write a story together, a tale to be told beside the fire, under the twinkling canopy of the night. Welcome to a world of tales, where the leaves whisper secrets & every breeze dances with joy. 

If you are curious about my statement. It's not an incantation or prayer, but you could think of it as a poetic invitation—a call to gather and create stories together. It reflects my creative process and the spirit behind my art. I draw inspiration from the natural world, where even the smallest leaf or gentlest breeze seems to carry its own story. Additionally, I am deeply inspired by people and their stories. The emotions, experiences, and dreams of individuals fuel my creativity and are woven into the fabric of each tale I tell. By inviting you to 'chat' and 'write a story together,' I hope to evoke a sense of communal storytelling, reminiscent of old tales shared around a fire under the stars. It's about creating a shared space where imagination and magic come alive.
