New Chapter
Ree-flections This newsletter is very late this week – by several days. My main, big, huge, colossal reason is that my LittleOne started school this week. Hence the issue’s title of New Chapter! Things are: so far, so good! I hope you’re enjoying a good start to the year, I hope my words find you […]

Fresh
Ree-flections Happy New Year! I hope you’ve enjoyed a lovely start to the new year, with rejuvenated energies, good words and inspirations a-plenty. I’m at the end of my holiday break, so am (rustily) gearing up to return to the day job. But regardless of my return to the wider world and all its myriad […]

Tinselitis
Ree-flections Welcome to my Christmas-themed issue of Ree-Writes, where every share is Christmassy in some way! It’s been a funny old week for us, with LittleOne down with a fever and cough (no prizes for guessing the inspiration for the ‘Tinselitis’ issue title!). It’s made for an unusual week of caring and worrying about LittleOne, […]

Barrelling
Ree-flections This edition is extra late going out, because two days ago, I had a Christmassy crisis – which basically consisted of trying to decide whether both December editions should be Christmassy-themed, or just the one before Christmas. I eventually decided 5 minutes ago that only the edition before Christmas will be Christmassy. So, although […]

Summer Edges
Ree-flections Here in the southern hemisphere, we’re on the edge of summer. Here in Brisbane, some days are cloaked in relentless heat and humidity with warm nights, and other days are crisp and cool. In the Blue Mountains where we used to live, they’re still talking heaters and possible snows, and I don’t miss that […]

Delay
Ree-flections For the first time ever, I’m a day late with the newsletter. While the world hasn’t stopped turning, I hope this won’t be a new habit. We’ve been chugging through another round of sickness from LittleOne (now much better thank goodness), and I’m not sure whether the rest of us are still getting over […]

Time to Play
Ree-flections Oh it’s been quite the fortnight, here in Ree-Writes Land. In the last issue, I mentioned a night of little sleep because my LittleOne had picked up a bug. Well, said bug worked its way through the family, taking us down one by one, with its various combination of goopy noses, hacking coughs and […]

Taking Flight
Ree-flections This issue comes to you from a night of very little sleep. Not because I left it all to the last-minute and had to pull an all-nighter – but because LittleOne picked up a bug. Hopefully LittleOne is on the mend, but in the meantime, I’m a bit of a zombie – reeplete with […]

Welcome to Issue #7 of my Ree-Writes newsletter. Ree-flections I want a fountain pen. And it’s all this newsletter’s fault. You see, I decided it was well overdue for Neil Gaiman to make an(other) appearance in the newsletter, so I found the podcast link I’ve included below. Among many other gems, Gaiman talks about how […]

Welcome to Issue #6 of my Ree-Writes newsletter. Ree-flections I’m writing this at 4.30am on Friday, 16 September 2022, the day this newsletter will go out into the world. My LittleOne woke me just before 4am with a demand to go to the lounge room. By the time I had heaved myself up and staggered […]

Spring sweet
Welcome to Issue #5 of my Ree-Writes newsletter. Ree-flections This issue is landing at the start of spring in the southern hemisphere. The days are stretching out a little bit longer each day, the sun is gliding slowly back to its summer rising spot on the horizon, and the cold is ebbing like the outgoing […]

Moon-Full
Welcome to Issue #4 of my Ree-Writes newsletter. Ree-flections This issue comes to you from a fortnight of many unconnected things, but which interweave anyway to make the backdrop to my world. The things include: Leaving my LittleOne alone with non-family caregivers for the first time ever – for a very short time, but the […]
