A SHORT story written by Milly Johnson to raise money for a mother whose children died in a fire started by their father has sold more than 6,000 copies.
Milly penned The Barn on Half Moon Hill to raise money for Claire Throssell whose two sons Jack and Paul were killed in the fire on Tennyson Close in October 2014.
In just three days since its release, it has sold 6,075 copies on Amazon.
Milly said writing the book was the only way she could think to help raise money for Claire, 44, of Penistone.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
