Thank you! All of my short stories here on Pure Fiction, except for “The Stoneman and The Singer” which is a romantic fairytale that might be your cup of tea, so speak. But the others are from the same universe. You’ll read of Mabel as a young woman, her grandson Tom, and great granddaughter Janey in a few others. The tree is not explicitly addressed yet, but it’s the central theme in Mabel and Janey’s life. Magical realism for sure.
