This is the first book published under the imprint Circaidy Gregory Press (and anyone who has read the book will already know where the name ‘Circaidy Gregory’ comes from!

Jung’s People is a set of stories based on the archetype characters described by C G Jung, which, I believe, are at the root of all that is best in fantasy writing. The original edition of the book (ISBN 0-9543747-6-2) was first published in 2004 by Elastic Press and is now out of print but I launched my own, independent edition this year and this can be purchased through Earlyworks Press Here are the jacket notes and some reviews…

Are you a parent, a child or a lover? Are you a fighter, a healer or a straw in the wind? What happens when we improvise, and reject society’s scripts? We find that there are older, deeper roles laid out for us; those driven by mythology, by instinct and by fate. Drawing on the archetype models of CG Jung, these stories explore some of the options open to a human being looking for ways to live.

“Kay Green’s refreshingly original stories tap into the vast and powerful mysteries that exist beneath our comfortable ideas of civilisation” - Trevor Denyer, Roadworks Magazine.

“…this first collection of short fiction by Kay Green explores mythic archetypes, the spiritual worldviews of our new millennium, and the lingering conflicts between paganism and everyday modernity. Even the sharply focused themes of science fictional pieces have a slipstream twist…” COOL
- Dragon’s Breath Small Press Review

“…Kay Green draws on Jungian philosophy to create a compelling and intellectually stimulating collection. This is another excellent collection from Elastic Press and well worth reading. Jung would, I think, be proud of this child.”
- Prism: The magazine of the British Fantasy Society
