My name is Harold Wilson. No I am not related! Born in England, I emigrated to Canada when I was twenty-two to take up a teaching position. During my teaching career  I developed a highly successful approach to the teaching of chemistry (P.S.Chem.), published articles in various journals, and co-authored a book - The Role of Solvents in Chemical Reactions ( Not exactly a best seller). Tired of always writing in scientific style (no personal pronouns) I joined a writing group.   Initially I attempted a series of memoirs meant for family consumption(Oh Henry!). Encouraged by the response of group members,I self-published these short stories.I have since written six novels, without ever attempting to publish. 
      1. The Drustone - A children's story  set in N.W.England.
      2. End of the Line- The tragic story of an English family who emigrated to Canada in the 1920s
      3. Alphega - A political satire
      4. A Tanner Each Way
      5. The Chiron Conspiracy. Both #4 and #5 feature an inept village bobby in Northern England.
      6. Inheritance 

The sixth, " Inheritance", a romance tinged with tragedy, is my first  Wattpad submission.I have submitted the story in weekly installments but I think it is better read in its entirety. Enjoy!

It might be better to start the chapter with Emily in the midst of the dream (written in her P.O.V.). The reader would only be aware of the dream...

A Family Arrangement

This was a nostalgic read for me - the setting is so familiar. I hope you don't mind if I make a few comments. First off I found the changes in...
A Family Arrangement

I was interested in reading "A Family Arrangement" because of its setting. Most of my stories are also set in Lancashire. I agree with Forrest's...
