Beth's Journal

by Annette Gisby

Recently released from a mental institution, Beth Gregory accepts a job as a live-in secretary/PA to the reclusive painter Josh Warrington. Beth has two major fears: that she will be sent back to the mental hospital and the visions which landed her there in the first place will return. Here you can read Beth's journal and catch a glimpse of what you're missing in Annette Gisby's Drowning Rapunzel !

About the author

Annette Gisby grew up in a small town in Northern Ireland moving to London when she was seventeen. Being a very small town there were no bookshops and a small library. When she’d devoured every book she could get her hands on in the library, she started writing her own stories so she would always have something to read later.

When not writing she enjoys reading, cinema, theatre, walks along deserted beaches or wandering around ruined castles (great places for inspiration!)

She still lives in England with her husband, a collection of porcelain dolls and stuffed penguins and enough books to fill a small library. It’s diminishing gradually since the discovery of ebooks but still has a way to go.

Beth's Journal is a side/story prequel to the novel Drowning Rapunzel
as i hadn't read drowning rupunzel this is my review:
it left me confused, like i've come in halfway through a conversation and tried tried to join in only to realise the conversation isn't even in your language.
That is how i felt after reading this short story.

Please note: This side story/prequel is not meant to be read separately. Please Read Drowning Rupunzel first before attempting to read this one. it will only leave you confused as anything as in has a very limited back story and not the best ending.

This is a short story prequel to Drowning Rapunzel, which is now out of print and looking for a new home. The story was never intended to be read as a standalone, so it might not make much sense if read that way.
