Unlock the Quiet Magic of Mabel Shirley

Welcome. If you’ve enjoyed meeting Mabel Shirley here, you might like to know her story continues beyond this website.
Some of her shorter adventures and case notes live on Substack — a quiet corner of the web where stories arrive as letters rather than posts. It’s a space for readers who enjoy lingering with a tale and the person behind it.
You don’t need an account, a password, or an app.
When you subscribe, you’re simply adding your email to my private list. Each new piece — a short story, a glimpse behind the scenes, or a note from Mabel’s world — will arrive quietly in your inbox, like a letter from an old friend. You can read it there, or click through to the story online.
Why I use it
Substack gives me a slower, gentler way to share Mabel’s world — no adverts, no clutter, just stories and connection. Writing has become more than a creative outlet for me; it’s part of rebuilding my life and income after illness. Every reader who joins helps make that work possible, one small step at a time.

There’s no charge to subscribe. But if you love what I create and wish to help sustain the work, I use Ko-fi to accept donations — or, if you prefer, you can support me with a small monthly contribution there. Every gesture, no matter how modest, makes a real difference.
What you’ll receive
- Free stories from The Mabel Shirley Case Files
- Exclusive material not shared elsewhere

You can unsubscribe at any time, though I hope you’ll stay a while.
