The Weaver & The Loom is a gay romantic story which charts the life and love of Jonah, the weaver and Jason, the boatwright. This story is about love, the sacrifice that it demands and the gifts that it bestows.
The Weaver and the Loom – The Warp
“Change comes not when we expect it, rarely is it a welcome guest … a darkness descends but there is light too … he is young and impetuous, he will act out of love but you will pay the price … something will be born and something will die … that is what I can see.” Such were the words of the fortune teller to Jonah.
Jonah is the village weaver and his lover is Jason, the village boatwright. Their love for one another runs deep but it is kept hidden from the village. A young man’s arrival to the village brings an unexpected change and the fortune teller's words begin to ring resoundingly with truth.
The Weft - Journey to Deuxfleurs

Jason struggles with the weight of his feelings regarding Jonah's sacrifice and his attraction to an exotic young man who they meet in Aubade. Old friends are reunited and new friendships are made including with a man from Deuxfleurs who will irrevocably change their future.
The Doom Clock
Part 3 and the stunning conclusion of ‘The Weaver and the Loom’ finds Jonah and Jason in the midst of strife in Deuxfleurs where they have become unwitting partners in a plot by the king to create an empire over which he will reign. As the strength of their characters is tested, their love binds them even closer together. But will love be enough to survive the horrifying toll of the Doom Clocks?

About the author
Alp Mortal
156 books95 followersI'm English by birth, from the Isle of Wight, living in Newport, spending part of the year in the USA, co-managing The Carter Seagrove Project LLC - an independent publishing house, incorporated in the State of Indiana.
I was 51 years old in 2016. I only started writing in 2009, proving, I suppose, that it is never too late. I didn't think about publishing until late 2012, now, nearly four years later, I'm even more energized by the process than ever before.
I'm a qualified English teacher, specializing in teaching English as a second language (TEFL), though I don't do much of that now. In the distant past, I taught software skills. In the very distant past, I was a project manager on big IT projects and at the very beginning of my career, I was an Internal Auditor. I have degrees in Internal Auditing, Computer Auditing and Project Management. I'm studying for my degree in Sustainable Development at the moment. Renewable energy is what really interests me.
I'm a member of The Society of Authors, The Society for Editors and Proofreaders and The Independent Author Network.
I have no great philosophy except "energy follows intention" and "honour your gifts". These two principles keep me sane, very happy and exceedingly busy!

Beautiful story of the love between Jonah and Jason, I totally fell in love with them and their story. The images that the story invoked from their time in the village to their journey and time in Deuxfleurs were amazing. Many thought-provoking gems can be found along the way, subtly hidden in the story. It makes for the best kind of story where it can be purely entertaining or take on a deeper meaning.
