  • Black Butterfly (Snapshot Story 30)

    Behind her eyelids, the world was the warmest, glowing sunset. There were the richest tones of deep orange, highlights of paler orange, and memories of gentle yellows. All-encompassing, embracing and utterly peaceful. As she breathed it all in admiringly, a tiny black butterfly fluttered at the edges of her vision, dancing and moving as through…

  • Ree-Writes #28: Patches

    Ree-flections The words are made of molasses at the moment. Is there a cause? A solution? Time is probably my big one. Thinking time, too little writing time, too much overthinking time. I’m not good at writing in tiny patches, but, as LittleOne says (lessons from school), “you get what you get, you don’t get…

  • The Lost Boy (Snapshot Story 29)

    The lost boy loved watching her cook. Not because he loved cooking. And not because he loved her. No, he loved watching the way she wrote the oil into the pan. It was different each time. A new meal, a new constellation, a new language. The lost boy wondered everything. He wondered what the language…

  • Ree-Writes #27: Flows

    Writing & Creativity Cool Finds Read about how ​a German publisher was inserting ads about soup into their authors’ books​ (to offset their acquisition costs). Yes, really. Here is a list of ​wonderful words without an English equivalent​. Some of them are really lovely – have a look for ‘tsundoku’ and ‘mudita’. Out-of-copyright books sometimes…

  • Lake, Light, Lost: A Photo Essay

    Take a walk around a local lake at dusk. Some evenings, the water is mirror-still. The wind breathes softly. The moon might spill a drop of moonlight. There are reflective moments and moments to reflect. The trees might look up. Or they might look down. You might find Rorschach conversations with a slip of a…

  • Ree-Writes #26: Butterflights

    Ree-flections I hope you’re enjoying the change of seasons in your part of the world. Here’s a busy collage for my Ree-flections: Left to right, by row: I drew a running green cat that LittleOne said looked like me. This tickled me a lot! I can only aspire to this level of skinny, lithe, elegant…

  • Flowersend (Snapshot Stories 28)

    The shop was one of several on the outskirts of the village. It was one of a string of shopfronts standing sheepishly next to a run of haughty houses, as though aware they were unwelcome interlopers. Across the road, planned green areas had dwindled into indifferent, unkempt areas which then drifted into over-long grasses which…

  • Ree-Writes #25: Rivers

    Ree-flections If you’re reading this, thank you for sticking around while I navigated many rivers of heart-things (rivers, rapids, rivulets, oceans and all other water-worlds). I’m trying to ree-turn to my regular Ree-Writes newsletter, and will start with a pared-down approach and see how I go. On a creative front, the most creative output I can lay…

  • The Tree of Clouds (Snapshot Stories 27)

    One day, a cloud dropped the seed it was holding. The cloud hadn’t quite meant to drop it right at that very moment, but these things happen, and then they happen as they will. So the cloud didn’t worry about the seed and floated on its way. The seed twisted and twirled around in the…

  • Ree-Writes Note: Pause / Breathe

    Dear Friends, This is a quick note to let you know that my Ree-Writes newsletter and my Snapshot Stories project are paused / taking time to breathe. There are many real-life, heart-things going on in my world at the moment, and these are where my energies are. Down the track, I’ll look for fresh balance…

  • Climbing the Stone Wall (Snapshot Stories 26)

    They stared up at their portion of stone wall. In the hesitant light of the quarter moon, they could see some of the stones were as wide as their outstretched arms. There were bright flowers of deep pink which bloomed everywhere. Some were as large as their heads, others were tiny enough to perch on…

  • Ree-Writes #24: A Year On

    Ree-flections Hello! Well, this issue has slipped into being two weeks late. But, as this is around the time of Ree-Writes‘ first birthday, all things considered, the timing has been unintentional but fortuitous. In-between issues, there have been birthdays and work things and sickness and first-ever school excursions among other things. Alongside this, my creeativity…
