Tales of humour, whimsy and courgettes
“I don’t want you here,” growled Meria.
“Well, you’re stuck with me,” laughed Lucy. “My wife just left me on account of my obsession with cricket.”
“Should I care?” asked Meria.
“No,” replied Lucy. “It just really hit me for six.”
“Why did you come to this island?” asked Meria.
Lucy reached for a bottle of whisky and grinned.

Meria kicked the pub’s door open and dragged her haul inside.
“Well, this is grim,” chuckled Lucy flicking the light switch. “Bulbs have gone?”
“Times are hard here,” sighed Meria. “There’s no money on this island and the electricity abandoned the supply years ago.”
“Well,” smirked Lucy, “these are dark times
Shout out to Kathy of Kathy of London for new patronage this morning. You’ll find photography, poetry and pecking birds on her blog, so if you fancy any of the above, give her a visit. Cheers, Kat!

“This is one cold and barren island,” remarked Lucy.
“It has sea birds, sheep and fish,” replied Meria.
“Not much intelligent life here,” grinned Lucy.
“The dolphins are about as smart as life gets here,” growled Meria, “and that suits me fine.”
“That’s all well and good until you need to clean a pod them,” chuckled Lucy. “I doubt you have many multi-porpoise cleaners on this rock.”

“That’d make a good photo,” remarked Lucy.
“Only for some motivational social media crap,” snorted Meria.
“I like clouds,” pondered Lucy. “I wrote a play about five clouds. On the opening night, the director added a sixth cloud.”
Meria shook her head and pressed on.
“The stage was overcast,” grinned Lucy.

“Considering you’re on a deserted island,” pondered Lucy, “you’re in an awful hurry.”
“How did you get here?” asked Meria.
“Same way you did, I imagine,” replied Lucy.
Meria nodded to the East, “storms coming.”
“Yeah,” noted Lucy. “It’ll blow over.”
Not another long serial. Just another five-parter like the Shore with my usual play-on-words mixed with a smidgen of horror.

Story by David
“The cat was mostly curious when I put it in the blender,” recounted Lucy.
Yuffie sobbed.
“It got ornery when I added the holy water, but the lid proved the stronger,” continued Lucy.
“How could you do that? What was going through your mind?” Yuffie moaned.
“You always say, fight fire with fire. You were catatonic. What else could I do?” Lucy demanded.
This weeks tale was spun (hah! Git it!) by David. You can check out their poetry and philosophical musings at davidiclineage.wordpress.com

(The last of this week’s complete story posts. Complete with Pinterest/Tumblr friendly image sizes.)
The Shore is a 5-part story in which Sprite finds herself on grey sands. Below is the complete tale.
From 2017 to 2019 I took part in the weekly #Colour_Collective hashtag creating a Little Fears portrait for each colour. Seventy-eight portraits later, and I felt compelled to move onto new things. On this page, for your viewing pleasure, is the complete series.
If you fancy using these characters portraits for anything, please do. They’re free to use in any project. Need a higher resolution copy? Drop me a comment below.
I only ask that you drop a credit to Peter at LittleFears.co.uk alongside the image and let me know where you use them. I’d love to see them out in the wild.
Want to tip me for an images use? You can drop me as little as $3 for a cuppa on my Ko-Fi page: https://ko-fi.com/E1E6DSNP

Grey Moon is my fifth series of Little Fears stories. A bit of pondering on life, death and a lot of puns. Told across seven days in the Grey Moon pub with a cast led by three of our favourite characters, Yuffie, Fuen and Reala.
Due to the explosion that was the WordPress 5.0 update, there’s a few repeat pictures and broken YouTube links. Sorry about that.
Otherwise, I hope you enjoy!

Spiders is the Little Fears third series of stories, originally posted in 2017. Much like January, it’s a series of random silly tales with frightful doodles. No plots or development. Just a whole lot of puns.
Although there’s a book available which is complete, I lost parts of this series on the website during the WordPress 5.0 upgrade that wreaked havoc on the Fears.
What’s left is most of the third series, which I hope you enjoy.
