Bio
Inhaling life, exhaling stories, poetry, prose, flash or fusions. An imperfect perfectionist who writes and recycles words. I write because I love how it feels to make ink patterns & form words, like pictures, on a page.

Unspoken GreyRunner-Up in Unspoken Challenge
A man hurries to the red postbox at the end of his road. He is late today and the woman is walking away, barely perceptible through opaque sheets of rain. Against the grey concrete and relentless downpour, the crimson umbrella identifies her, bobbing along further into the distance until the grey swallows her.

Deckchairs for Sale
I bought four deckchairs. All of them bright, covered in colorful stripes, but each different from the others. Yet it was obvious they were a set, like four sisters posing for a photo. The elderly lady who sold me the chairs whispered, “Look after them and they will bring sparkle to your life.” I thought this odd, but couldn’t resist, even though I lived nowhere near any beaches.
