The Adventures of Goldie, the Golden Retriever.

Goldie the Golden Retriever has lost his ball. He misses playing with the ball and goes on a search through the local woodland to see if he can find it. As he journeys along, he meets other animals and birds along the way, and hopes that one has come across his ball.
‘Goldie has lost his ball,’ is a simple story for young children, and as well as introducing a young child to some common woodland birds and animals, helps to teach them to keep important things safe so they can always find them

Just published, November 2023, my first children’s picture story book, the first in the series of ‘The Adventures of Goldie, the Golden Retriever.’

Music News

I started writing in my teens, poetry and lyrics, was briefly in a band, wrote some songs, developed prose and wrote numerous short stories and a few novels. Somewhere along the way though, the writing was left behind.

Move on, years and years, to  my fifth decade on the planet, and the creative impulse returned. These Books and my website then, are my panacea for a lengthy bout of writing procrastination. As I edit and publish more of my original, and more recent endeavours, I am adding new and exciting stuff also.

It is great to be in creative mode again! Look out for more books coming soon.

Also, I contribute articles all about the subject of electric bikes, an avid interest of mine, to ebikeuser.com. If that is an interest of yours, please check out that website.

And I have been writing music again, mainly instrumental, and creating videos for these music tracks. So I have music, as well as words available on Amazon. My music can also be heard on Spotify and YouTube.

Stevie Mach is my pen name, an abridged version of my real name, Stephen McConnachie. In my normal everyday life, when not being creative, I live and work in central Scotland, and muddle along, much as most people do.
