WIP extract book 1 of 6 SlenderWolf Conflicts and Alliances Chapter 10 The Wok Wok Bird “Isn’t that hat simply delightful” says KristalClear, “shouldn’t your boyfriend be wearing a hat too?” “Oh, thank you!” says Shanti, “my husband doesn’t wear hats much, unless it’s pouring with rain, Rishi claims that his dark skin is protection enough again the sun.” “He’s so lucky, I’m so fair that I’d soon turn red if I had too much sun.” “Me too,” says Shanti, “he’s only like that because we spent all our teenage years at the beach, he was always swimming in the sea. I spent most of that time under a beach umbrella, and limiting the swimming I did.” “Oh I wish I could swim!” responds KristalClear, “but we don’t have a beach in Lancaster. Dash can swim, he learnt at Mulberry Basin. Do you live in Ulverston? I didn’t even know there was a beach there.” Dragging NutJob into the conversation, she adds, “This is my boyfriend Dave, I call him Dash, because he’s always dashing off to do things!” “Rishi, come here,” says Shanti, “ this is the nice couple we saw in PotentialEnergy before we sailed. Dave and … ?” “Kristal. We’re journalists from The Lancastrian.” “Rishi and I own Riki Tikki Tavi, the Indian restaurant in Ulverston.” A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 16. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt (and blue jeans out of shot). The image is labelled KristalClear (she is demi-psychic but cannot read human minds, only animals). A watercolour picture of a charming young man aged 16. He has neat well groomed brown hair, his eyes are bright blue, and his face has an almost neutral expression although it looks as if he's concentrating. He's wearing a plain white T shirt against a light grey background. The image is labelled NutJob. copyright © Scott Rochester 2025

It was on the agenda anyway.
There *is* a beach just to the south of #Ulverston.

The red roses are for Lancashire, the town having formerly been in that county, and the black wolf refers to name of the town “ Wulf-heres-tun ”.The other emblems are for local industries; the agricultural market is symbolised by the gold sheaf, the flames are for the formerly important iron-smelting, the leather collar represents the tanning industry, the chain hanging from it is for the engineering industry, and supports a gold shield carrying a red lightning flash for the electrical industry and the Egyptian Ankh or Cross of Life, in green, for the antibiotic manufacturing activities.

WIP extract book 2 of 6 SlenderWolf In With the In Crowd Chapter 13 ChatterBox « Wolf? » Coconut backs off cautiously, then resumes, « I met a wolf once! Big, ugly brute he was. Should have been called the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Or Scatterbrain, or Doofus or something like that. Maybe OopsMyBad. But he didn’t talk much. » « Weren’t you frightened? » « I was at first. But then he was so still and so silent, there was nothing to be afraid of. » « Did you talk with him? » « After a while, I think I did. What’s your name, why are you here, where did you come from, how stupid can you be to get stuck in a ditch? » « I thought you might! I think you would have found it impossible not to chat. Tell me more. » « He said nothing. He just kept looking at the stars. » « Don’t go away ChatterBox, I need to talk with the humans for a moment, but I need to talk to you again. » A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 17. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt (and blue jeans out of shot). The image is labelled KristalClear (an animal lover, she is demi-psychic, but struggles with reading the minds of humans). A watercolour painting of three year old Maltese puppy, a small silky, pure-white lap dog, with deep black eyes, a cute black nose, and hanging ears. She has an expressive face which appears to be saying Please Love Me, though that belies her reputation for being too bouncy, and too much of a ChatterBox. She can chat endlessly on the wavelength with KristalClear, and constantly demands doggie chocs! copyright © Scott Rochester 2026

no "fool", but you get "stupid"
Coconut has a reputation for being too bouncy, and too much of a ChatterBox
But she did find Copernicus, the fourth Wolf!

WIP extract book 2 of 6 SlenderWolf In With the In Crowd Chapter 12 Kristal’s Apology “It’s early days for Copernicus,” says NutJob, “it might be a good thing that you can talk to them and that we’re here at this early stage. I wonder how SharkBait got his name, and why he accepted a job as a wolf farmer?” “We’ll soon find out!” “And SnapDragon … are his legs OK now?” “Yes, even though he’s not yet fully recovered, he can walk, but it seems that Marshmallow is a bit of a drama queen, constantly seeking affection, and SnapDragon’s doing his best to please her!” “All in good time I’m sure! You just be careful what you tell them about us!” “Yes Dash. Wolves only have sex once per year. Marshmallow won’t be on heat until February so I think they’re just being intimate and having fun!” That’s ages yet! A lot can happen in six months.” “Yes Dash. Should we write that down, put February in our plan? That gives us plenty of time to acclimatise to each other.” “Let’s concentrate on work shall we?” A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 16. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt (and blue jeans out of shot). The image is labelled KristalClear (she is demi-psychic but cannot read human minds, only animals).

extract from book 2 of 6 SlenderWolf In With the In Crowd Chapter 11 It’s Just Not Cricket “Seligman?” “He was a Harvard professor!” • “If you want to be happy for an hour, get drunk!” • “If you want to be happy for a while, get married!” • “If you want to be happy for a lifetime, get a nice garden! With a water feature if you can.” “Seligman was talking about ‘biophilia’, an innate tendency of human beings to seek connections with nature and with wildlife. Humans like nature, and greenery. Running water, birds, butterflies. And fish, and small furry animals. And the more we experience this, the happier and more productive we are. The whole of Wolfland is our beautiful garden, and it’s on our doorstep!” “We’re going to connect with all of the wolves today. They will connect with us, I’m sure. You’ll have to stay calm and follow my advice. They do a lot of non verbal comms. The first thing they will want to do is smell us. A watercolour picture of a charming young man aged 17. He has neat well groomed brown hair, his eyes are bright blue, and his face has an a simple, polite smile although it looks as if he's concentrating. He's wearing a plain white T shirt against a light grey background. The image is labelled NutJob. A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 17. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt (and blue jeans out of shot). The image is labelled KristalClear (an animal lover, she is demi-psychic, but struggles with reading the minds of humans). copyright © Scott Rochester 2026

NutJob was ridiculously drunk. Now, KristalClear is explaining some deep psychology to him.
This morning they’re on their way to the wolf farm.

The door to hours of innocent fun is wedged open.
