On a rainy Tuesday morning in Glasgow, Carol Kennedy sets out for her first yoga class with one goal in mind — meet someone new and start putting the pieces of herself back together after four years with the wrong woman.
She never makes it to yoga.
Instead, a chance collision in a sports shop on Argyle Street brings her face to face with Eilish McCormack — warm, funny, and entirely unafraid to say exactly what she means. What follows is one afternoon in the Dear Green Place that neither of them planned and both of them needed.
Love, Glasgow is a short story about two women finding each other, and beginning, slowly, to find themselves.
The Nature Of Love is a short story about what it means to love completely, to lose irreversibly, and to discover that the person you lost left something behind — a trail through time, a story told from human to human across the centuries, leading exactly where it needed to go.
The Nature Of Love is a standalone short story and is offered here freely, with love from Kate Clarke
Meg has lived alone in the Scottish wilderness for a decade, a deliberate exile from a world she no longer trusted. She is self-sufficient, stubborn, and more than a little convinced that solitude suits her — until a stranger quite literally falls out of the sky and into her carefully ordered life.
What follows is the slow, reluctant thaw of a woman who had decided she was done with people, and the unexpected discovery that the shape of what she'd been missing had been waiting for her all along.
The Shape of It is a sapphic romance set against a backdrop of wilderness survival, quiet domestic warmth, and a world irrevocably changed. It is a story about guarding yourself so well you forget what you were protecting — and what it takes to let someone past the door anyway.

In a tavern on a quiet night, a wandering musician is approached by a mysterious woman who asks her to play. What follows is not a performance but a confession — a life laid bare in music, every love and loss and road travelled woven into a single melody for an audience of one.
The Song is a short story of love, loss and the long road home. Of the music we carry inside us and the rare souls who already know the tune. It is offered here freely, with love from Kate Clarke
When Claire writes a letter to her estranged wife after a year of silence, she isn't sure what she's hoping for. What follows is a correspondence that neither of them expected — tentative, honest, and slowly finding its way back to something that was never truly lost.
