The Tree of Life (Snapshot Stories 35)
It snowed on the Tree of Life last night. Thousands upon thousands of petals, detaching and gently drifting on the breeze. At first, they appear all white, but as they land on your hands, your knees and the grass beside you, they exhale. In hues of lilac, sky, ocean and rose. Back to Snapshot Stories

Ree-Writes #29: Twirling
Ree-flections (of things done) My words are still trickling very slowly. But I’ve taken to browsing my pretty notebook in which I’ve jotted down all my favourite microfics. Most of these stories are tiny – created for Twitter and its original 140-character limit. I’m now playing with these tales and sometimes expanding them a bit.…

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…

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 #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…

Ree-Writes #22: Eclectic
Ree-flections I’ve got an interesting, eclectic mix of shares for you in this issue! In the name of creativity, there are clowns, colours, crusts and calculators. There’s a collage too. Here’s my past of couple of weeks in a pic collage: Clockwise L-R: I hope my words find you well in your world, and I…

The Sad Clown of Carleton Park (Snapshot Stories 23)
The industrial estate at Carleton Park is a large, busy one. It has many buildings – all in varying combinations of concrete, corrugated iron and steel. Behind their smoothly painted exteriors, they all house gears and levers and joints and axles and belts obediently roll and turn and twist in their particular programs of synchronised…

Ree-Writes #21: Crisp
Ree-flections Welcome to issue #21 of my Ree-Writes newsletter. This is around the time in the Blue Mountains when the thermostat plunges from ha-ha-you-though-you-were-coping-with-autumn-bearably-cold to its relentless, permanently-goosebumped shroud of frigidity. Shoutout to those heading into – or out of – their winter wildnesses (or mildnesses, in my grateful case)! Creatively, I’ve been inching ahead…

Nocturne (Snapshot Stories 19)
1.00am The middle of the week drifts through the night. 2.00am Mist has descended and has lovingly smudged out the world. Rain drips in a constant rhythm outside the window. The autumn cold sits, a heavy blanket. 3.00am Shrouded in her comforter, she looks from the ceiling to the window again.She tries to count sheep.…

Ree-Writes #19: Light Up
Ree-flections Greetings from a suddenly-cool Brisbane which seems to have finally realised we’re in autumn. I’m excited to share a range of interesting reads in this ed. (Well, I think they’re interesting!!) And I’m especially excited to share one of my new short stories in my ‘Something I Created’ section below! It took a lot…

The Lantern (Snapshot Stories 16)
The lantern was made of lightning and sand. When it was lit, it whispered stories of opal stars and endless skies. Backstory: The words were written in 2017 and I created the accompanying image a couple of days ago. The base image was done by my LittleOne. Then I photoshopped it to add a cosmos…
