A growing original collection
Begin at Mill Pond
Mill Pond Stories follows a small, recurring cast through mysteries and adventures around an old watermill. Each story stands on its own, but the pond remembers what happened: friendships, promises and discoveries can return in the next one.
The adventures are fiction. When a plot grows from real duck behaviour, a short, sourced note after the ending explains what is true in the natural world. New stories are added slowly so the characters stay consistent and every tale has something worth returning for.
