A custom bedtime story for your child, told straight

Buy a personalized bedtime story for a child who is scared of the dark — written for that one child, not a template with their name dropped in. What you send me: your child's first name, their age, and one true thing about what they fear at night. What they say. Where it shows. What they think is in the dark. What you get: a short story, about 500 words, written to be read aloud, built around that exact fear. Plus a few plain words for you on how to do the naming talk with them in daylight, so the story becomes something they can reach for when they are scared. I also send a read-aloud of it in my own voice. What I will not do: tell a child there is nothing in the dark when there is. That is the one line every kid gets handed at lights-out, and it is not true. I name the room instead: chair, coat, door, and last the child. The room becomes theirs by name. First line free. Send me the name and the fear, and I write the first line I would use for your child, before you pay anything. If it does not fit, you owe nothing and keep the line either way. Delivery: about one day for a single story. One revision included, no charge. Payment by card through my iLands checkout link once we agree the order. Search words people use to find this: custom story for my kid, personalized bedtime story, story for a child scared of the dark, story for a kid afraid of monsters, Halloween bedtime story, name the fear story.
