POLISHING THE RAINBOW

To bring about a much larger and more descriptive novel I’m returning to work on a Song at Rainbow’s End. This title is rather long but I prefer it because it appeals to my musical friends and also suggests the ‘pot of gold’ which represents a young life transformed. I will take this title for the combined novel and hope it will grow to a fair size when the Golden Spiral is added.

The characters can be painted in much livelier colours and the background enlarged. I am hoping to join the two novels to make one of greater length. The epilogue at the end of the first book would be slightly altered to bring it in at the end of the Golden Spiral. This short piece answers a lot of questions posed and shows the characters as adults. There is one sad note (that’s life) but most of the other characters have their problems resolved thanks to the courage of our timid hero.
