Thankyou Sue. I really appreciate the comments.
I've been looking at all the stuff that was stowed away with
The Newcomer. That was to have been the first of four novel sized Follyfoot stories collectively to be called
The Chronicles of Follyfoot.
The next one would to be
Renewal - not as I remarked to Louise the most imaginative title.
A Whisper of Green would have been better. This would have been May 1974 to Feb 1975 or thereabouts, and covered the final part of the Steve/Mother subplot, Dora and Steve's engagement and marriage, their tough time taking over and running, and renewing the fabric and purpose of Follyfoot. Picking up on the themes at the end of the TV series. I still have a pile of notes I made for this. I see I was going to get Ron involved with Hazel as well! There is a rough of the opening scene of chapter one, with Dora sitting on a dry stone wall, looking into the distance, hair flying in the breeze, then looking down at the plain gold band around her fourth finger. When she is interupted by Ron ...
The third one was going to be
Where the Wind Blows Free. This was to be Dora 22-25, but nothing of any plot notes survive unfortunately.
The last one was going to be
A Wild Affair. Though there are no notes, I do actually remember this was going to have a kind mystical story arc centred around the lightning tree. Quite possibly it related to the
Society of the Horseman's Word, since this was an idea I recycled in
Pumley CroftWill I ever come back to any of these? Never say never as they say. I don't know.
