Olive Framley Entry 5, 25th April.

The strange weather continues. Yesterday it was raining on one side of Crag Cottage but not on the other. The town was covered in rain, and over the sea it was bright and sunny. I wondered if it was some sort of trick… something meant to draw me out. I put on my coat, and… Continue reading

Olive Framley Entry 4, 23rd April.

Dear Talia, You’ll never guess what. I am not the only witch in town! She looks awfully small, this other girl, with the fairytale name of Lucy Skylark.
