The Dialog Tree

Milton isn’t enjoying early retirement. His hopes of a rural idyll came partly true, but it’s not the same without his love. Milton had avoided the chatbots as Desiree wasn’t keen on a digital recreation unless Milton was the curator. Today, Milton is ready to take up the challenge, is he ready for the results?

Tia’s Inheritance

In an anonymous back alley in Zürich, 1847, Tia’s life is going nowhere fast. The daughter of a stage magician and Mer, the occasional supporting act, Tia’s life slowed when Mer went missing. When Tia receives a surprise marriage proposal her world is sent into a spin, then Mer returns.

[The Dialog Tree is written in US English]

Random facts:

• They are left-handed.

• They worked in partnership with the same Manchester Chamber of Commerce that the author J.K. Rowling worked for, when they worked for a joint venture organisation that included the Chamber.

• They are a decaff person. Although, they do like the odd 'proper' cup of coffee.
