Megan's Garden: A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger And One Scary Mother!

By Owen Jones

In Megan’s Garden, our psychic teenager seeks to apply what she has learned from the old Russian lady into practise. Her parents give her a free hand over the back garden, where she spends hours having fun every day. She remembers the wood nymph when she sees a Fairy Ring in her lawn, and tries to start a conversation with the Little People who she believes are tending her flowers.

The Psychic Megan Series consists of twenty-three novelettes about a young girl's growing realisation that she is able to do things that none of her family can. Megan is twelve years old in the first volume. She has two seemingly insurmountable problems. Her mother is frightened of her daughter's latent abilities and not only will not help her but actively discourages her; and she can’t find a teacher to help her develop her supernatural, psychic powers. For she wants not only to know what it is possible to do and how to do it, but to what end she should put her special abilities. Megan is a good girl, so it would seem obvious that she would tend towards using her powers for good, but it is not always easy to do the right thing even if you know what that is.

These stories about Megan will appeal to anyone who has an interest in psychic powers, the supernatural and the paranormal and is between the ages of ten and a hundred years old.

Owen Jones

Author Owen Jones, from Barry, South Wales, came to writing novels relatively recently, although he has been writing all his adult life. He has lived and worked in several countries and travelled in many, many more. He speaks, or has spoken, seven languages fluently and is currently learning Thai, since he lived in Thailand with his Thai wife of ten years. "It has never taken me long to learn a language," he says, "but Thai bears no relationship to any other language I have ever studied before." When asked about his style of writing, he said, "I'm a Celt, and we are Romantic. I believe in reincarnation and lots more besides in that vein. Those beliefs, like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around', Fate and Karma are central to my life, so they are reflected in my work'. His first novel, 'Daddy's Hobby' from the series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya' has become the classic novel on Pattaya bar girls and has been followed by six sequels. However, his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a young teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. After fifteen years of travelling, Owen and his wife are now back in his home town. He sums up his style as: "I write about what I see... or think I see... or dream... and in the end, it's all the same really..."

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

Believe not in anything simply because you have heard it,

Believe not in anything simply because it was spoken and rumoured by many,

Believe not in anything simply because it was found written in your religious texts,

Believe not in anything merely on the authority of teachers and elders,

Believe not in traditions because they have been handed down for generations,

But after observation and analysis, if anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, accept it and live up to it.

Gautama Buddha

––

Great Spirit, whose voice is on the wind, hear me.

Let me grow in strength and knowledge.

Make me ever behold the red and purple sunset.

May my hands respect the things you have given me.

Teach me the secrets hidden under every leaf and stone, as you have taught people for ages past.

Let me use my strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy – myself.

Let me always come before you with clean hands and an open heart, that as my Earthly span fades like the sunset, my Spirit shall return to you without shame.

(Based on a traditional Sioux prayer)

1 MEGAN IS INSPIRED

One afternoon, when Megan was sitting in the back garden of her friend and neighbour, Mrs. Temchenko, drinking black Russian tea and admiring the flowers, Megan asked, So, you don’t mind if people call you ‘Babushka’?

No, not at all child, it gives me a warm feeling in my heart. It means ‘Grandma’ in Russian, so why should I mind?

I don’t know, I just thought it better to ask. If I said to an elderly lady in English ‘Excuse me, grandma’, I wouldn’t be sure how she would take it, but if I said to an old man ‘Excuse me, granddad’, I could be pretty sure he would get offended.

Yes, I see what you mean… perhaps it would be the same in Russia, it would be safer to call him ‘dyadya’ or uncle.

Oh, you couldn’t say that to a stranger here! You would have to say ‘Excuse me, sir’ or ‘Excuse me, mister’. Aren’t customs strange? May I call you Babushka as well? It sounds so much friendlier than Mrs. Temchenko.

Yes, Megan, I would like that. You would be the first person in the world ever to have called me that to my face. I have no family in this country… and perhaps I have no family in Russia any longer either… I have no way of knowing.

Megan watched sadness take a hold of her both in her features and in her Aura.
