Great advice, I wish I’d understood this sooner.
I equated 'literary' with quality and 'genre' with confinement.
I was very wrong!
Freedom comes from learning the rules well enough to bend them.

Thanks for sharing. These outrageous anti-protest laws need to be rolled back immediately. Democracy is our most precious gift.

On the seashore Nathan found them when he went down to swim past the safety of the headland.
Out where wind meets wave.
The scaffold of something mighty;
the arches of a moving city;
a cage for a heart big as his chest.
He touched the #bones and felt the depths take his hand.

Small, sassy calico cat reading a book called The Post Humans. Sitting on a couch thinking deep thoughts.

Shameless plug: my cat Dumbledore has opinions about my latest short story, The Post Humans.

Literary sci-fi with unsettling imagery and a haunted world.
Four meows. Full review coming after dinner. 🐈💙📚

Available now on Amazon (the book, not the cat).

Pain is the age-old
worn refrain
of strict brain trying
to restrain
the blind soul that leaps—
ignoring danger,
drunk on the sublime.

Please save us, tired brain
from the worst
we otherwise cause
this fragile,
most humble human
home, though it
be haunted by dreams.

Uniquely Australian, beautifully ties together the vastness of our night sky, the continent, the weight of our history

Darkness borne of reaching hands. They come to ferry you home. Watch dreamtime shift desperate to guide them as they go. All while red land she weeps her stolen children’s echos cry Their pleas carried upon swirling winds Across vast lands Lost #souls unfound They wander forever and alone. *My Words. Stock image.

Darkness borne of
reaching hands.
They come to
ferry you home.
Watch dreamtime shift desperate to guide
them as they go.
All while red land she weeps her stolen children’s echos cry
Their pleas carried
upon swirling winds
Across vast lands
Lost #souls unfound
They wander forever
and alone

Finished Ted Chiang’s Stories of Your Life and Others over the break.
To have an imagination like that. I’d never leave the house or get anything done.
Think I'll save Exhalation for now. Need to savour each one.
