Three Wise Women



Wanting to get into the Christmastime spirit, the tea lady has taken to wearing a turban fashioned from tea towels.  The writer and C.E.O. of self-publishing Inc have done likewise, except the writer is wearing a tea cosy and the C.E.O. a beanie made from woven tea bags.  These three wise women from the west are seeking a star that will lead them to the Messiah — they have gifts for her — a newly sharpened pencil with which to write. An exercise book to write in.  And a bottomless box containing — time.

  1. Gosh I love your stories, Marlish! You have one hell of an imagination that dreams up these snippets, and then you put the words and sentences together and make a moving story out of them. A true gift! x

  3. Thanks for your kind and generous praise, Louise. Whenever I post these snippets I honestly screw up my eyes and think Lordy I hope this works! xx
