Stories I Had to Write - Volume II

Stories I Had to Write - Volume II by Nicola Lonie is not a collection for the faint-hearted. These are stories steeped in the cold salt air of Scotland's north-east, where grief lingers in old stone buildings, the sea keeps its dead, and ordinary lives fracture beneath the weight of secrets too terrible to remain buried. Across haunted fishing villages, windswept castles, lonely council estates, offshore oil platforms and shadowed school corridors, Nicola Lonie weaves tales that blur the line between psychological horror and the supernatural. Some stories whisper quietly before tightening around your throat. Others drag you straight into darkness from the very first page. Inside these pages you will encounter: - ancient stone roses that reveal devastating futures, - drowned figures returning from the North Sea, - childhood trauma that refuses to stay buried, - and unseen things waiting patiently behind the walls of everyday life. At the heart of every story lies something painfully human: loneliness, fear, survival, guilt, love, and the desperate need to be seen. Dark, atmospheric and deeply unsettling, Stories I Had to Write - Volume II is a haunting collection that will stay with you long after the final page. About the AuthorNicola Lonie writes stories that sit in the uncomfortable space between reality and something darker. Her work explores silence, guilt, and the hidden truths people carry - often long after they should have been spoken. Her writing is influenced by a fascination with human behaviour, moral choices, and the consequences that follow when those choices are ignored. Stories I Had to Write - Volume II is a collection shaped by years of ideas that refused to stay quiet.
