Praise for Rosen Trevithick

"Brilliant."
- The Independent
"This short story makes an excellent introduction to the novel 'Pompomberry House' but it's also very funny in its own right, particularly for anyone who has ever been on an internet forum!"
- Sheila Perry (Author)
(Re: 'A Royal Mess')
"Fun, lighthearted read and well written. Children who enjoy Roald Dahl and Horrible Histories may like this."
- Kew (Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer)
"You can tell that Ms Trevithick was a fan of Roald Dahl when she was growing up. The stinky trolls in this story are reminiscent of the giants in The BFG and, if possible, even more revolting. Her strong authorial voice and witty prose will appeal to parents as much as children; I caught myself chortling out loud at least every other page."
- Rebecca Davies (The Independent)

On the Rocks

On the Rocks

A Short Story (Part of the Seesaw - Volume I collection)

A short story from the 'Seesaw' collection by number 1 bestselling author, Rosen Trevithick.

“So there we were, Poppy and me, two friends with matching diagnoses. I'd have rather had a band or favourite TV show in common.”

Sometimes droll, sometimes poignant, this heart-warming story follows the unique and important friendship formed when Poppy finds Meg sitting alone on a cliff top. Both women are living with bipolar disorder, and Meg is inspired by how more experienced Poppy is dealing with it.

However, after taking a lover back to Poppy's house, Meg wakes up to discover they have been robbed. As she struggles to put things right, Meg soon finds out that things are not as they first appeared.

In a society in which mental illness is still largely misunderstood, this tale is comforting for those that have been there, eye opening for those who might say, 'Just pull your socks up.'

This is a book for adults.
