Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. Welcome to Raven’s Readings. I do readings twice a week, from various classics. If you subscribe to my free Substack newsletter at ravensview.substack.com you’ll get notified of the next episode, and can leave your comments or suggestions. And perhaps also browse my Flash Fiction writings or musings on the world.

Remember that you can manage here which sections of my SubStack you’ll receive emails for—Fiction, Odds and Ends, Podcastings, Sort of a Journal, or all.

I will be reading to you from Treasure Island, written by the Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson. It was published in 1883, but is set in the previous century. It’s a ‘coming of age’ story of the young Jim Hawkins, and is mostly told from his point of view. There are 34 chapters, shortish, so I’ll read two per episode. So grab a glass of grog, settle down in a snug corner of the cabin, and let’s set off on our adventure.
